More minis from Dream in Color Smooshy w/Cashmere! These are 88 yds., $10 each - perfect for many, many projects. These have been selling well for Andrea Mowry's Vellichor! We also have more minis in Dream in Color Smooshy (nope, no cashmere added but still some soft yumminess) in 100 yard skeins, they are $8 each.

It's Casapinka time again! Here are the deets we received yesterday from Casapinka:
"Sharon Air is this summer's Casapinka Mystery Knit-a-long and is winding up to be one fantastic ride!
Sharon is going on a huge adventure as she tries to solve a mystery involving the Golden Bag of Cat Treats. She has invited all of you along for the ride and to be her Security Ssistants (long as you don't act like eegits! - SFS)
She's gotten passports for all of you, stamped them at the Sharon Embassy, so you are set to go!"
This MKAl starts tomorrow, August 12 (what?!?) Per usual there are kits available from Miss Babs, though that is a label we don't carry. That being said, you know we have an outstanding selection of fingering weight yarn, as well as a pretty good eye for color! If you plan to participate ... come see us! The pattern is available on Ravelry now, as well as a coloring sheet ... as of this writing that's all the information this little yarn shop has!
