Fleece Artist BFL 2/8

Red Fox

In addition to Red Fox, Moondust and Orchid have also appeared amidst our Blue Face Leicester 2/8 skeins.  In case you missed the last 1000 times I’ve said this, BFL 2/8 is the worlds softest, strongest jumper-weight (aka, fingering weight) wool to ever grace a needle.  Nourish your eyes and hands here.

These kits are perennial favorites as well as simply great ways to introduce yourself to the wonders of BFL 2/8 ~

Muffet by Perl Grey

Muffet by Perl Grey - All Three Possibilities

We are delighted to introduce Perl Grey’s Muffet kit.  Muffet is a reversible mohair tunic – choose between front or back belt or turn it inside out for a cozy muff and delight in wearing it every which way you like. Muffet is another wonderful Perl Grey innovation that invites us to cast on as soon as possible so that we can wear her beautiful art as soon as possible.

Knit side-to-side, Muffet also features a fascinating belt/muff which make this tunic one of the most versatile peices of clothing you’re likely to own. Add to that the gossomer weight of Fleece Artist’s ultra-soft Mo, one of the few mohair blends we’ve ever experienced that is so high quality and so soft that even those who can’t wear other mohairs wear Mo in blissful comfort. Mo allows Muffet to just float on the body, draping with a relaxed ease that beckons to be carressed. Delicious!  See it here.

About 10 new colorways plus some old favorites are now happily displayed on their web page, hoping you’ll take them home with you.  Fleece Artist’s River is a DK yarn sporting a happy marriage of alpaca, silk and merino wool.  What’s not to love?  Personally, I find the drape of this yarn extraordinary and its ratio of beauty to price to be nearly mind boggling.  This is a great yarn at a pedestrian price – see the new arrivals and more here.

The newly arrived River means that there are many more Kims available in many more color choices, here.
