I'm preparing for the next shop update today - looks like it'll be shaping up for Thursday, but I'll announce that for sure in a day or two. All the yarns in this update will be my new base - a single ply, DK weight, 100% superwash Merino, 100% super squishable yarn.
For this update, I'll have 11 colorways - 3 of them brand new. Here's the first of the three, Nutbaby.
Take some charcoal, shake in some brown, and you get Nutbaby. I think this would make a great hat for your favorite fellow - or for you.
What's a nutbaby? Well, we have these trees in the backyard and I should know what kind they are, but I just can't ever remember even though my friend Denise told me just a couple of weeks ago. But they give us these just all over the place.
V started calling them nutbabies and it stuck. So it's a nutbaby tree, I suppose.
I wanted to do a strong yarn that would be suitable for a man or a woman and Nutbaby is what what I came up with. The name works, huh? ;)
Please check back tomorrow for details on the second new colorway!
ooooooooh, I love it! I haven't knitted in months (upon months upon months) but this guy kinna makes me want to.

I'm typically not one to go for browns, but oh my. That is one sophisticated yarn. :)
