Click the small pics to go the Etsy listing.  

I've had this yarn for a while but this is the first time I've put it on Etsy.   It's versatile and beautiful.   Great in all kinds of projects:   Scrapbooking, jewelry making, knitting, crochet, weaving, etc.   

$12.  200 yd skein of hand dyed, hand painted nylon ribbon yarn. Appx 1/4 inch wide. Frosty finish.  Makes beautiful knitted scarves [garter stitch] on size 13-15 needles.

Available in many colors. See the other Etsy listings.

Knitting needles: size 13-15
Crochet hook: size M-N
Weaving: Looks best mixed with other yarns 8-12 epi. Looks great as weft.

Care: Hand wash cold water. Hang or lay flat to dry. Bright or dark colors may bleed. Avoid using any hand dyed yarn in projects where bleeding could cause problems.

Fairy Tale Novelty Yarn

[If you click the pics above, they'll take you to the listing on Etsy.] 

I've showed you this yarn on the blog before and it was a big hit. Now I've got it listed on Etsy!

150 yds of three yarns stranded together. 1 strand hand-dyed rayon, 1 strand hand-dyed nylon ribbon, 1 strand mohair [not hand dyed].  $35

Color: Teal/Turquoise. Teal mohair, Aurora rayon, Iris ribbon.

This is one of the most versatile yarns we offer. Knit all three strands together for a gorgeous and quick project, such as the scarf in Lt Blue [size 19 needles], photo 3, or you can separate the strands as you go knitting only one or two at a time as we did in the orange triangle shawl in photo 4 [size 15 needles]. Both of the projects were done with only one skein of yarn.

Available in several colors. Photo 5 shows some of them.

Knitting: size 15-19 needles
Crochet: size T hook or larger
Weaving: separate the strands 8-10 epi

Hand dyed yarns should be washed gently in cold water. Lay flat to dry. Bright or dark colors may bleed. Never use hand-dyed yarns in projects where bleeding could cause problems.

Hand-Dyed Yarn Grab Bags

I have some gorgeous hand dyed yarns in my studio.   Some of them are smaller quatities of yarns I can't get more of.   I thought it would be nice to share the bounty with you guys - at a nice savings, so I have combined them into grab bags of 5 skeins.   Details below.

I have just listed these Hand-dyed yarn grab bags in my Etsy store.  Get 'em while they're hot!

$38 each

Each grab bag contains 5 skeins of hand dyed yarn: 1 skein nylon ribbon [Frost] 200yds, 2 skeins rayon or rayon/cotton yarn [Rayon Spiral, Rayon Overtwist, ZigZag, Cott/Ray Tonal] 150-225 yds each, 2 skeins cotton or rayon/cotton yarn [Warbler, Nuthatch, Fine Cotton Boucle, Cott/Ray Tonal] 200-300 yds each. Each bag will have at least 4 different yarns and 4 different colors.

Color groups [Same order as lower photos]: Bright Cool, Bright Warm, Earthy Cool, Earthy Warm. I am happy to consider special requests, but cannot guarantee availability of yarn/color. For example, you may request 'no all green skeins', or 'heavy on the blue'. Please be reasonable. No returns accepted on grab bags.

The price of the grab bag is 40-50% off the regular retail price of the yarn. Each skein should have a tag with fiber content and pre-dyeing yardage on it.

Hand-dyed yarns should be washed in cold water. Bright or dark colors may bleed. I do not recommend using any hand dyed yarn in a project where bleeding would cause problems.
