Aurora

Now that the 125g skeins of Big Blue are here, the 250g skeins are available at a luscious Clearance Price, here.  Blankets and sweaters, anyone?

Fleece Artist Big Blue - 125g Skeins

Hemlock

Another scrumptious Fleece Artist yarn is now available in the more practical and economical 125g skeins.  This time it is Big Blue, the bulky weight Blue Face Leicester that is so soft you’ll want to curl up for a nap in it.  Between the fiber and the spin of these beauties, your fingers will be treated to one of the most sensual and caressing wools ever.  For winter hats and mittens, jackets and sweaters, and perhaps especially for cozy winter blankets, Big Blue is the yarn to choose, here.

And, if you’re thinking “sweater,” Perl Grey’s Jo Cowl Tunic is says “Big Blue” perfectly:

We have received about a dozen colors of Baby Alpaca in 125g skeins which allows us to fill in many of the colorways that have gone missing since we switch over to the new put-up.  Whether you use it alone for cozy, nubbly vests and sweaters, or create your own version of Cat Bordhi’s Island Embrace Blankets*, we know you’ll love it as much as we do — this is still one of the most-petted yarns in our shop.  See them all here.

Fleece Artist Baby Alpaca 250g Skeins - CLEARANCE!

We have a generous amount of Baby Alpaca in the old 250g skeins still available and need to send them off to new homes so that we can have enough room for the new 125g put-ups.  As with Scotia Silk, these are priced to create that room fast – and, as with Scotia Silk, we expect our limited supply won’t last very long.  See them here.

As with Scotia Silk, Fleece Artist Baby Alpaca is now avaiable in 125g skeins.  More are on the way, but many are already here.  Enjoy what I consider the ultimate “petting yarn” in smaller, more economical skeins.

Slubby Blue is not only radiantly beautiful all by itself as bulky sweaters, jackets, coats and more, it pairs up with other yarns in ways that simply dazzle. Notice that the natural crimp of Blue Face Leicester fleece has been retained in the spinning of this sumptuous yarn.  Consider creating your own Cat Bordhi Island Embrace Blanket by addiing mix and match colorways of Curly Locks and Baby Alpaca. Or strand some Mo along with it and make a throw that will lead you into happy naps year after year. The creative possibilities are endless, the knitting breezy and delicious. Then comes wearing or using what you’ve made: that’s where you, too, will say “Ahhhhh!”. Enjoy it here.
