I Fall to Pieces

I fall to pieces...
Each time someone speaks your name.
I fall to pieces...
Time only adds to the flame.

~Patsy Cline
(and color shown above:
Fire Island from The Unique Sheep)

Did you see what we added to the shop late last night? I literally "fell to pieces" when I saw all of the gorgeous colorways from Family Pendragon, Three Irish Girls, and The Unique Sheep. The new Fire Island colorway is one of my new "must haves"! We all have those, don't we? Colorways that don't come with an option...they just must be ours. Here's some that are my new "must haves"...

Geisha from Family Pendragon...

Pen Rhionydd by Family Pendragon...

And, of course, I had to add some of the new Family Pendragon sport weight to my personal collection...

Guns N Roses definitely calls my name...

Adara from Three Irish Girls makes me weak in the knees...

Let's just say, every color from Three Irish Girls is a force to be reckoned with! WOW!

Oh, and did you see the new kits we've added? The absolutely stunning Autumn Gold Lace Shawl Kit from The Unique Sheep, designed by Janine Le Cras.

We currently have this kit available in 2 colors, but will be adding more soon! AND, the patterns will be available for purchase on their own soon too.

The gorgeous Quatrefoil top down raglan-based shrug kit from the Unique Sheep, designed by
Janine Le Cras.

We currently have the kit available in the Maya colorway, but will have more colors available soon.

We've also added a few of the new Fair Isle Footlet kits from Curious Creek Fibers. I LOVE these little footlets, and what a great way to experiment with Fair Isle techniques!

The Fair Isle Footlet is the sock on the left. Aren't these way too cute for words even?

I hope you'll stop by to check out some of the new yarns and items in the shop today!

In addition, we have a winner for the "Under the Weather" contest that we had last week. Thank you to everyone for your well-wishes. I'm feeling much better after a few days of rest!

The yarn shown in the photos was, you guessed it, Zen Yarn Garden! The yarn will be here sometime in the next 2 weeks, and I just can't wait. Roxanne has really outdone herself with the colorways! The winner of the contest is Kellie - congrats Kellie! I have contacted you about your color preference and winning loot this week, so watch your email for that!

The Woolgirl Newsletter will be coming your way this week via email also, so watch your inboxes in the next few days. We may have a fun contest again this week too...you never know. :)

Hope you each have a Happy Monday and have fun "falling to pieces". :)

I hot-footed it right over and got a shawl kit! So gorgeous!

OOoh... those TIG colorways are so pretty!!! I really love Adara and Alice.

I just fell to pieces at the computer. Gonna have to point the fellas in the house to Woolgirl for birthday gift wishes.

OOOHHH! I'm loving the Kirsty and the Kelly from the Three Irish Girls. Then, that Impressionsists Rainbow from Family Pendragon is pretty hard to resist. Oh, the decisions one must make.

Do you think you'll have multiple sizes of the Quatrefoil shrug kit at some point?
It's pretty, but I'm not sure M will cut it for me!

Karen--

There is enough yarn in the Quatrefoil kit to make a size large.
Here are the size specs:

Sizing
Size small (to fit up to a 36 inch bust)
Medium (to fit up to a 42 inch bust)
Large (to fit up to a 50 inch bust)

All these measurements are approximate as there is no front to the shrug and the sizes are very forgiving. If you at all unsure as to which size to knit base it on a measurement from shoulder to shoulder across your back
Small: up to 18 inches
Medium: up to 21 inches
Large: up to 25 inches

Jen has a kit in our Maya colorway, but let her know if you like a specific color and we can include it in out next shipment to her.

Kelly

congrats kelly
