*Knitwitches News*

KNITWITCHES IS CLOSED FROM SAT 16TH AUGUST TO SAT 23RD AUGUST AS WE HEAD FOR DEEPEST DORSET

Apologies that there have been no new stock on here for ages, all kinds of problems etc, too numerous to bore you with.But the new all singing and dancing website will be up and running in the next 2 weeks. My lovely webdesigner has emailed me to say it is almost ready. Blessings on him.

All the new Seriously Gorgeous Range  of Yarns will be on there plus new colours in the other yarns and the Knitwitches Patterns.

Sept 6th IKNIT London -The Yarn Harlot and our very own Jane Sowerby of Victorian Lace Today, will be there. If I was any more looking forward to being there I'd explode! Come see Knitwitches and say hello.

The cashmere/silk that Clara Parkes raved about in the Knitters Review in Jan.Yummy off the scale, one of my friends described it as Yarngasmic!!!.I don't have the words to describe just how amazing this yarn is. I have a small amount of this left from Wonderwool, please contact me directly if you would like to get you hands on this meltingly soft yarn.

*Silk/Baby camel  sooo very, very lovely to knit with

*Silk/kid mohair, Oooh yummy (sorry running out of superlatives here)1 strand of silk wrapped around with one very fine strand of kid mohair DK weight.

*The new 2 ply lace weight silk 600metres per 100gms, class in a skein.

*And last but not least Orenburg Lace Yarn, hand spun by women in the Carpathian mountains of the Ukraine . A must for lace knitters, this amazingly fine lace yarn, 80%kid/20%silk.

This will all be on the website soon.
