A Fresh Start

Last week was my first week at the Yarn Store and it was spent organizing yarn into weights. It was a ton of work because there is a ton of yarn here, very worthwhile though for us to learn what's here!!

My partners in knitting are Deb of Dyehard Fibre Arts - you know that amazing self striping sock yarn? It's here by the way, along with a bunch of colors that were dyed just for this store. Julia also works with us and she is a knitter extrordinaire!! Together we've been having lots of fun getting organized!

It's hard to know where to begin as far as yarns go so I'll just jump in the HPKY yarns which are new to Canada. The line we have is Donegal Sock Yarn Norma available in colors exclusively dyed for The Yarn Store.

I had a quick peak on Ravelry and found over 200 projects for this gorgeous yarn. Have look and then come on in and get yours!!
