Goodies goodies! Lots and Lots of 'em!

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I just had the shipment date confirmed - my absolutely favourite needles in the world - are coming to you know who! And no - not Voldemort, little old me. Can you guess? Nice, soft cables, pointy ends... comes in a choice of pretty wood and nickel plated metal...

Actually there are oodles of new things coming: Louet Gems fingering weight, in an assortment of colours, has been shipped, along with Royal ball winders, (should arrive in a week or so). Jennalou's popular (and PURDY!) sock bags have also been shipped and should be landing shortly. Pagewood Farm Yukon (bamboo/merino/nylon), St Elias (BFL/nylon) and Ayeska (merino/cashmer/nylon) and their new Willow Creek yarn. Oceanwindknits should be shipping shortly as well as Shelridge Farm (with some more of their lovely solids for colourwork and a few new handpainted colourways).

We've got more of Cairi's lovely Middleearthknitter BFL up in the shop, those of you in the Sock(topus)Club will know this yarn from the Mosaic socks, those who aren't I urge you to try the yarn. Lovely to knit with and super durable (I've seen year old, well used socks that still look brand new knit up in this yarn).

Fun tools - coilless safety pins, pattern tamers, Swedish umbrella swifts to come in August, along with Socktopus Knit Bits - (hee hee, another surprise...) more Dream in Color in the ever popular Smooshy, Classy and introducing their Baby Lace Weight.

Pretty as a Peacock has been crazy popular, a massive shipment is coming soon so I'll be able to fill all the preorders, as well as Jae's Bois Blanc pattern.

There are more surprises - one super scrummy yarn that will ship in September (if all is well at the lovely Canadian mill that makes it), and I'll have a sample for you to fondle at iknit day & Ally Pally (stand H21!). Keep your eyes peeled, there is still more to come.....LOTS more to come! :D
