Indulge Yourself

We love the Blue Sky Alpacas yarn and patterns. The yarn is to-die-for and the patterns are perfect. Look what Anina's been knitting lately:



This is the gorgeous Scoop Neck Vest, knit with a sumptuous combination of Alpaca Silk and Brushed Suri. It looks even better on Anina. Our friend Cathy also knit this vest and I overheard her tell someone, "...it's one of the nicest projects I've done in a long time. It turned out exactly the way it's supposed to." What more can you ask for?

Anina also knit the popular Armwarmers, with the luscious Melange:


She then moved on to the Worsted Hat, knit with the lovely Worsted Hand-Dyed yarn:


A classic, good-looking hat that's comfy to wear. The pattern also has a matching scarf, it's a great set.

We love the Blue Sky yarns so much that we keep adding new ones. This week we received the gorgeous Duotones:

It's a stunning handpainted yarn that's 50% alpaca, 50% wool. You could knit the adorable Bulky Baby Hat or the Fitted Jacket with this one.

We carry most of the Blue Sky line of yarns including Alpaca & Silk, Brushed Suri, Dyed Cotton, Melange, Organic Cotton, Royal, Sportweight, Suri Merino and Worsted Hand-Dyes. Look at them all hanging beautifully on our Blue Sky wall:


Watch for five bright new Spring colours of Alpaca Silk and the new yarn, Skinny Cotton, coming very soon.

We also carry most of the fantastic Blue Sky patterns for all kinds of garments and other beautiful things that you can make with these luxurious fibres.

Looking to indulge yourself? This would be a great place to start...
