We love Madelinetosh yarns at Loop! We started out by carrying just her sock yarns but we loved them so much we started to add others to the collection. Her hand dyed yarn are rich semi-solids in vintage looking colours.  We recently added her aran weight Vintage yarn and her lace weight Prairie yarn. Now her luxury sock yarn, Pashmina has arrived at Loop. It is a 75% merino, 15% silk, and 10% cashmere blend which is softer than her regular sock weight with a subtle silk sheen. Really beautiful! It came in to the store and went out again …

Susan is going nuts for the new Misti Alpaca “Best of Nature“, chunky yarn!  It’s the same base yarn as our popular Misti Alpaca bulky range, but dyed with natural dyes and mordants in soft hand-paint colours. The 100% Baby (super soft) Alpaca yarn is the most organically produced natural fibre in the world. It would make the most sumptuous baby blanket or sweater! Try a simple chevron stitch in a few colours, like this one by Debbie Stoller.
