More Nyoni has arrived, and in several new colorways, too. Enjoy the new arrivals here.
Nyoni has become one of our most talked about yarns – we’ve heard from so many of you who love it for just about everything. It is truly the sock yarn that has gone far beyond just socks. As an example, Connie B., a Colorsong “regular” who has become passionate about Nyoni, sent this photo of her Nyoni rendition of Lily Chin’s Reversible Cable-Rib Shawl (link goes to pattern at Vogue Knitting store). As you can see, Connie is right when she says Nyoni “was made for this pattern” – between the drape and the softly undulating color, it’s everything a happy knitter could want. Her shawl, which is the full size of the pattern, used 3.25 skeins of Nyoni.

Nine returning colorways are luxuriating in our yarn room, resting after their fortnight on the road from Nova Scotia. And well they may rest, for once you cast on, they’ll be wonderfully busy becoming beautiful fabric that is soft and glowing with color. Camelspin is one of the finest yarns ever spun – the combination of camel and silk creates a supremely elegant fingering weight yarn that is so alluring in it’s softness that it’s hard to set it down. See it here.
These kits are lovely introductions to Camelspin ~

Succulent. This yarn just flows the dyes into itself unlike any other. Every time we receive a shipment of Lace Silk, we find ourselves abandoning everything else in favor of gazing at the colors in their silken smoothness. Treat yourself to a little gazing here.
Beach House
Doesn’t Beach House make you long for more? We think it is one of Hand Maiden’s most stellar color achievements. In addition, there are two other equally wonderful new colorways to gaze at: Nightshade and Nymph, plus new renditions of 7 old color friends. See them all here.
