Fall is here!

The nights are getting cold, and the change of seasons is palpable.

Perfect time to get back into the knitting spirit. Start a sweater, or a lovely afghan to snuggle under. A cool breeze reminds us of hats, scarves, and mittens.

We have some great new yarns to inspire you.

Rowan Cocoon is a plump, lofty singles yarn with 80% merino, 20% kid mohair. Even if you think you don't like mohair, give this yarn a squeeze. Rowan uses the softest kid mohair I've ever felt.
~100 gr, 126 yds; 3.5 st/in on US 10.5 or 11

Also new from Rowan, Colourscape Chunky is Kaffe Fasset's latest contribution. 100% lambswool, this singles yarn comes in a range of eye-catching colorway.
~100 gr, 175 yds; 3.5 st/in on US 10.5

Scottish Tweed Aran is a great two-ply 100% wool, perfect for sturdy and warm sweaters.
~100gr, 186 yds; 4 st/in on US 8

Fairisle and stranded colorwork just got more exciting! Whether you have been knitting in pattern for years, or are just dipping your toe in, Natural Shetland Fingering is a great yarn. A collaboration between Elemental Affects and Judith MacKenzie, the smaller put-up and extensive color range (42 dyed and 9 natural colors) make it easy to get glorious color in your projects. 100% North American Shetland wool.
~1 ox, 118 yds; 7-8 st/in on US 1-3
