Yarn of the Week: March 18th-23rd, 2013



This week's Yarn of the Week is Cotton Supreme and Cotton Supreme Batik from Universal Yarn. This is our go-to worsted-weight cotton. It is soft and does not fade like "dish-cloth" cotton, so it is perfect for warm-weather garments. It is also sturdy enough to be used for dish-cloths. One skein of Cotton Supreme or Cotton Supreme Batik is 197 yards--enough to make three generous-sized dishcloths. Below you may find links to some fun free patterns from Universal.

Easter Eggs

Spring Wreath

Unchained Circles Vest (see sample above)

Have a wonderful week, and remember--as our Yarn of the Week, Cotton Supreme and Cotton Supreme Batik are 10% off. We have wonderful new colors, with more on the way (including Cotton Supreme Sequins!).
