New Fibres and Yarns

Whew -- it was a warm one last Sunday at Port Market. Thank you to the visitors from Queensland! It was lovely to see you and I hope you had fun at the Semaphore Greek Festival. It was packed out when we ventured down that way.

The new yarns have arrived and are in the planning stage for dyeing -- check back next week for pricing and colours in:

YARNS: Alpaca/Silk 2ply, Merino/Lyocel 2ply, as well as 100% Lyocell -- made from sustainable tree fibre. In the mix will be some Peruvian aran weight as well as a few surprises. 

The Tofutsies is continuing to be a bestseller -- still only $20.00 on sale and available in a rainbow of colours. Free pattern with purchase.  For online customers, Paypal orders accepted and FREE MAILING on Tofutsies orders - email strandedinoz AT gmail DOT com.

NEW STOCK OF GEMSTONE SPINDLES: the new stock of gemstone spindles are ready. Come on up to the Port and try 'em out. I strongly suggest trying 'em out before buying, as it's personal preference thing which one feels right to you. There's a little bit of the Overlook Manor Farm top left -- in blue/green or autumn tones - $12.00 per 100 grams.

Handspinning Fibres are on the way -- so stay tuned for the latest. 

In Stock: undyed soy natural top, organic Aussie wool top (not much left!) and some hand-dyed SIOz roving are all available. There are some GEMS coming in from overseas. You won't wanna miss 'em.

MONDAY is a public holiday and I'll be at the Port Market -- so come on down.
