Hello all,
It is Wednesday and we have a new fiber of the week. This week it will be Blue Heron's Rayon Metallic. This fiber is stunning and sparkly! As with all Fiber of the week sales we will wait until next Wednesday to place any special orders for this yarn. This is a really neat fiber made from 88% Rayon and 12% metallic which gives it that special sparkle. All Rayon Metallic bought through our website during this sale will be 15% off!
Please let us know if you have any questions.

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.
