DK Weight yarn is really hot and we have recently added several yarns of this weight for you. You'll see some of them below and find more at select stores. Now known as 3 Light, you can expect to see the symbol above on the newer DK Weight yarns. To learn more about the new Standard Yarn Weight System and how it will make your knitting and crocheting life easier, click here and be sure to drop by our Free Creative U Seminars in the month of February. Chris will be showing you tips and techniques for Knitting, Crochet & Other Yarn Delights ! Here are some of the lovely DK Weight/3 Light yarns you'll find at our Bellevue and Northgate stores:
Sublime Extrafine Merino Wool (shown above) is available in yummy colors. We've chosen a book for baby and a book for women to go with it, too - you'll find them both at Bellevue and Northgate, too.
Lustrous Extrafine Merino (shown above) is my favorite of the new DKs. It's Merino encased in a nylon wrap that makes it look metallic, but there's no scratch included! Hard to see in the picture, but trust me - it's fabulous.
Baby Silk & Bamboo (shown above) is soft, pretty and luxuriously perfect for baby and the rest of us, too. Very sweet colors!
Amazing, shown above, is available at all of our stores. It's a gorgeously dyed all acrylic yarn. At just $7.99 per skein, it's a delightful bargain! Click here to download the pattern for this beautiful crocheted Cozy Cowl Hood from the Lion Brand web site. We have some really lovely new yarns and/or colors from Cascade Yarns, too. At our Everett, Bellevue and Northgate stores you'll find the following:
Lana Bambu is a soft, wonderful blend of Wool and Viscose made from Bamboo. Click here to download the pattern for the cozy Faux Circle Jacket from Cascade's web site.
Alpaca Lace (shown above) is a blissfully, soft yarn of 100% Alpaca. The shawl above will keep you cozyily warm in marvelous, soft-as-a-cloud Alpaca. Click here to download the pattern for the Maggie Shawl from the Cascade Yarn web site.
Jewel (available at SODO Seattle, too) is another gorgeous newer yarn we all love. Made from 100% Peruvian wool, you'll love the soft hand and great body of this yarn. Click here to download the Fanfare Mobius Shawl pattern shown above.
And at all our stores, you'll absolutely love Cascade's Pacific (above) along with it's big sister yarn, Pacific Chunky (shown below). Click here to download the Catch the Wave Hat pattern made from versatile Pacific yarn.
Pacific and Pacific Chunky are great wool/acrylic blends that are affordable, easy care and come in brilliant colors! Click here to download the pattern for the Pacific Chunky Daisy Cowl pattern shown above. Last, but not least, at Bellevue and Northgate look for Jojoland Crown - an all cashmere luxurious, laceweight yarn. No picture, but you'll love it - it's just $29.99 for a 440 yard skein! ~ Anna-Beth Anna-Beth is the manager of the Northgate store and also serves as the Assistant Buyer for Yarn for all Pacific Fabrics stores. |
