I've been wanting to order from them for a while because they are located in Florida and I love to support local businesses. I've had some communication with Kris and others and they have always been so nice. I emailed Kris before I ordered to find out if new yarn was coming and she responded pretty quickly.
So, I was very excited to order and it took me a couple days to decide on colors and yarn I wanted. I knew it would be all sock yarn but there were quite a few choices to make and I don't make many choices quickly. :)
When I finally did order it came pretty quickly. When the box got here it was all nicely wrapped in plastic bags with ribbon. It was really cute because there was a hand written note, a sample skein of sock yarn, and two bags of tea. I thought that was great and such a person touch.
OK...now here's the whole order...
2 skeins of Shibui Knits in the color Bark. I love these!! They're for a special, secret project you will have to wait for. 2 skeins of Shuibui knits Spectrum. I've been eying this color way for a while and finally took the plunge. :)
And this is the cute little sample of Chewy Spaghetti that I plan to make a mini sock out of for my sock blocker keychain. :)Well, hope you enjoyed the lovely yarn pictures. I would highly recommend ordering from them. It's a great company and hey it's nice to support a local Florida company!!
Happy Yarn Shopping!!
Ohh, ShibuiKnits Sock! I haven't knit with mine yet but I like imagining what it will become. It's so squishy isn't it. And the socks are fantastic - I know one post late:) Happy Easter!
