Hello all!
We are going to try something new here at Coveted Yarn. Every Wednesday we are going to announce a fiber of the week and put that fiber on sale until the following Wednesday. This week we chose Miss Priss from Schaefer Yarn Company. This is a great all around fiber and Schaefer sets the tone with some fabulous color selections. We are kicking off this new tradition with a whopping 20% discount to celebrate the beginning of spring! All special orders for Miss Priss will be placed with Schaefer the Wednesday the sale ends. We will showcase a new fiber every week so keep checking back!

A very persistant hat


This one just doesn't to be photographed and posted. Even when I think it is being posted it evades me once again!



Victory is mine!!!!

The one that (almost) got away

Here is hat # 38 that snuck away and hid when I was gathering the hats for the last update post.

I have been getting very positive feedback from people sending in the hats they make. I think that is great. Rumor has it that this is a fun thing to do. Maybe it would be fun for you and your friends too!

We just added a bunch (and by bunch I mean quite a few) Schaefer Yarn Company Patterns to the website.

Something to sink your teeth into!

For the month of March we will take a portion of our gross sales and donate it to Harvest Meals. Harvest Meals is a program through Cape Ann Interfaith. It provides meals for those who need them. It is a great program and one that I am personally familiar with and proud to have been able to take part in. This is in addition to our hat contest which you can read about below. Please let me know if you have any questions about anything Coveted Yarn related. Thanks!!
