We’re bringing you a short post this week, to tell you about a new kit we now have at Loop. The Harlequin Blanket Kit is brand new from CaMaRose, and we are so pleased to have it at the shop!
CaMaRose is a favourite brand of many members of staff at Loop; the Danish brand is a lovely supplier of wonderful wools at very reasonable prices. They have a big colour palette with lots of beautiful shades. We stock the Yaku, Hverdagsuld and Lama-tweed, and the Snefnug, which has just arrived!
Spring is in the air, and with summer just around the corner, our thoughts are turning to lightweight knits, perfect for Spring and Summer.
Loop has been the proud stockist of mYak yarns for several years, and we want to showcase this gorgeous yarn this week. mYak’s fibres are ethically sourced directly from Tibetan herders, and are collected by hand combing the undercoats of baby yaks and cashmere goats.
This week we are celebrating the recent release of two beautiful new shawl designs from Lori Versaci, of Versaci Knits.
Triangulate is a triangular shawl with a combination of garter stitch and uncomplicated lace, and Waypoint is a similar combination of lace and garter stitch, but in the form of a wrap.
Both these lovely new designs use the Qing Fibre Super Soft DK, which is one of our very favourite yarns. We have a wonderful giveaway running this week, with the opportunity to win three skeins of the Super Soft DK from Qing, as well as a pattern from Lori. Read on to find out more!
