Whew! With the brave (maybe crazy) group of gals we work with, Cultured Purls was only closed one day last week due to snow. We are lucky to have a great crew to work with and great customers who braved the snow to come in to see us.Even while we were all muddling through the snow, UPS continued to rally forth and we have all kinds of fun, new things in the store for you. One that is sure to be a hit with sock knitters is Happy Choices by Plymouth yarns. Pre-knit and dyed fabrics are unraveled as you knit. We never know what they're going to look like until they're knit up; that is what makes them such fun! We have a variety of colors, some bright and splashy, some more muted earth and water tones. You have only to see them to see the possibilities!
The other really exciting new product is square knitting needles from Kollage Yarns. Our focus group told us they liked the even stitches that were generated. They also observed how soft and supple the cables are. Kollage says, "Yes, they really are easier on your hands... designed to be ergonomically suited... perfect for knitters who have arthritis, carpal tunnel, or stiffness of their hands and fingers." Our focus group knitters just liked them because they liked them! Come in and test drive them. See what you think.
