NEW Araucania Coliumo Mutli



Araucania Coliumo is another great newbie!  It is a super soft, chunky/bulky strand of 70% soft wool and 30% silk and knits on a very reasonable 8mm needle. It is 100g/87m of snuggly-wuggly  lurvliness!  One skein makes a very big hat or pair of mitts, and 2 skeins are enough for a scarf. Take 4 skeins for a shawl/wrap and you are set!


This is our sample hat in Araucania Coliumo in colour 4 (bottom right above).

Rasta is a verrrry happy new yarn!  It is thick, soft, and pretty merino yarn that knits up on an 8mm to 12mm needle. 1 skein is plenty for a hat or pair of drop-dead gorgeous mitts, and two make a stunning scarf.  150g/82m of happiness that will change your life.
