YARN OF THE WEEK



Pictured - the latest free pattern available when you buy Rowan Big Wool. The Eirwen capelet is the easiest ever fashion knit. Using Big Wool and Kid Classic, this piece can be finished in an evening. Come instore to get your free copy and browse our other free patterns.
The new season goodies are coming in thick and fast now - the latest of which is Debbie Bliss. We t
hink that the Riva is the best of the bunch: a lovely heathery range of colours and a soft bouncy texture. It's sure to be a favourite for snuggly winter knits. The new books are full of easy to make garments that'll have you swathed in comfiness in no time.
Our choices for your first projects in this yarn are:
Easy - Generous Shrug from the Simply Glen book. All Glen patterns are suitable for Riva and this book contains nothing but easy peasy knits.
Intermediate - Shoulder Cape from the Riva book. If you only knit one thing this season it must surely be a capelet.
More advanced - Debbie Bliss this season is all about keeping it simple and quick, so even the Lace Edged Dress, from the Riva book is only made more complex buy a traditional Old Shale lace hem and cuffs.

Plus - don't forget that many of our Debbie Bliss yarns (including Glen) are discounted and many others remain at last season's prices, so check out the whole range.
