June at HYS
Our KAL for the month is the SHIP SHAPE sweater by Heidi Kirrmaier. Henny chose Remix Light from Berroco for hers and it will be popping up in a “What’s on Your Needles Wednesday” post soon! Stop by the shop to pick out your yarn and save 15% on pattern and supplies for this project with our KAL discount.
We have some beautiful new yarns in as well…
Madara
Madara means uneven in Japanese. This luxurious wool, silk, and alpaca blend from Noro does not disappoint. The colors are vibrant and wonderful, with a very tasteful tweed appearance due to the process of double dyeing which allows the base multi color to peek through. A wonderful addition to Noro!
