Inhale

It's 2:45 in the AM and I am AWAKE! I have a terrible cold that won't quit and I can't lay down without my nose and ears clogging with snot! Not even a bad cold can stop me from dyeing... I think it's about time to announce the new fall line up for Mama Llama! This is only a sampling of whats to come:



Mama Llama Squish- made of 80Lambswool/10Angora/10Cashmere

300 yds/skein..... Has a very squishy feel to it. Squish is advertised as a DK or light worsted weight, But I would use a Sz 2 or 3 needles to get a good pair of socks from it. Use larger neddles for a more open fabric. (100 yd skeins will be avaiable also....)

Mama Llama Silken Cash- made of 55 Silk/45 Cashmere


This is a 2ply fine fingering weight yarn at 400 yds/skein. It plumped nicely during the dyeing process and will be ideal for lace because of its drape.

Mama Llama Cash- made of 100% Cashmere


Could I have found a more lux sock yarn? Its like knitting with a cloud! At 400 yds /skein this 2ply also plumped in the dye pot and is ready for a Sz 1 needle to knit the perfect pair of high maintience socks... Remember handwash!

Theres more where that came from too ;)
