Jumpin' June at yarn-love 
 
We've been busy selecting new goodies and planning fun events for you.  We are finalizing our fall and winter fiber and design offerings and are really excited to unveil a bunch of new stuff over the next months!  You can expect to see a wide range of things from romantic little knits to rustic chunky yarns.  (And, yes, the accessory spotlight will remain on neckwarmers and cowls!)  We do have two new offerings this month:  Anne Hanson's Knitspot designs and Alpaca Yarn Company's Paca-Peds.  Details on each follow including a Knitspot Knitalong in July.

Our event focus is on Jumpstart Sunday in June, which will be jam-packed day with a knitted sample sale (like the Noro Silk Garden Cape pictured below), prizes, summer snacks, fun things to do, and holiday ideas.  Also in this love note, we included a Mark Your Calendar section to make it easy for you to keep your calendar in-synch with us here at yarn-love.

Hope to see you soon!

Anne Hanson Knitspot designs have landed!
We love Anne Hanson’s knitting designs and are thrilled to introduce her Knitspot patterns.  It was no easy task to select which designs to unveil first at yarn-love, so we offer a baker’s dozen plus a handful!
  • Our Knitspot pattern selection includes feminine designs for scarves, shawls, cowls, hats, and fingerless gloves.
  • Knitspot designs feature laceweight, sport, and DK weight yarns.
  • Select a Knitspot pattern and save 20% off Jojoland Cashmere (laceweight), Ella Rae Lace Merino (fingering; new colors are now on our shelves) or Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino (sport) yarn.  Hurry!  This special is good through Sunday, June 27.
  • Join our July Knitspot KAL (knitalong)!  You choose the design and we’ll knit together Wednesday nights in July, 6-8 p.  (Pam thinks she’s settled on the Alhambra Scarf…for now.)
Alpaca Yarn Company's Paca-Peds are here!
Paca-Peds are a luxurious alpaca-superwash wool-nylon blend sock weight yarn that’s perfect for socks and lightweight scarves and shawlettes.  Hurry!  Our introduction will include one hank of each of the gorgeous hand-dyed colorways.  View colors here.
