Some Changes, Some New Yarn

Pink Mohair trumped the greens of Glacier Pebbles, so here it is, for now anyway. Thanks to everyone who offered an email or comment, everyone had the same feelings that the pink mohair is a better composition, but not really a color people associate with me. I'll still be fooling around with the font and link colors, however, rest assured everything is working and you can still place orders.

There are now 7 colorways in the Superwash Merino: Iceberg Lake, Northern Lights, Pink Snow, Pebbles, Snowberry, Beargrass and Wildfire. Beargrass is a solid green, the others are beautiful variegates. Access buy clicking on the link in the sidebar to the right.

Enjoy!

There's A New Butternut Woolens Web Site In the Works

Now that I've learned how to add words to photos via Picnik, I've been able to create a couple of new banners for the web site. It would help me alot if you'd tell me which one you like better. Vote for Pink Mohair or Glacier Pebbles, or neither. Which ever gets the most votes will be the new banner. Thanks!

Free(ing) Fair Isle

From cast on: Tamarack (green), Wood Thrush (warm neutral), Apekuni Falls (rose violet), Pheasant (rust), Wild Plum (purple), Wild Turkey (red), and a bit of Blue Spruce (blue). Knitting this swatch of Homegrown is like reading a good book, I just can't put it down. One more row, wonder what this combination will do?....
