Yarn September Issue



The latest issue of Yarn Magazine is hot off the presses and just in time for you and yours to plan some spring and summer knitting. This issue includes a new Stranded In Oz sock design, "Smiley Socks," a bit of easy, noworriesifyou'rechatting, knitting -- EASY sock pattern. Surely, silly socks for the silly season.

For Stranded In Oz customers, I've put together a Limited Edition Sock Kit -- this includes:
  • The original That 70's Yarn special sock colourway from Knitting By Zen
  • The original contrasting colours yarns used (mini-hanks of yellow and black)
  • A set of bamboo sock needles (the really short ones that are hard to find)
  • $30.00 AU, excluding postage (usually $5.00 in Aus)
This kit will be available during the Sockstravaganza Sunday, August 31st at the Port Adelaide Fisherman's Wharf Markets. There are bargain sock knitting finds ready to be scooped up. Email orders are fine. 

From the dyetable this week:
  • huge new selection of Soy DK in spring/summer colours
  • Limited Edition hand-painted Tofutsies@
  • new crop of florals in 100% Australian Merino 8ply
  • new stock of laceweights - 2 ply merino and Nepalese laceweights, including some golds and yellows and greens I've been mad-scientisting


See you at the Port.
