New Yarn, New Sale Yarns, New Needles, Class Update

CRYSTAL PALACE SAUSALITO

Crystal Palace released their newest sock yarn, Sausalito, which could be best described as a two-ply version of Mini Mochi. It is very soft, and the stripes are almost tweedy-looking because of the two plies. Sausalito is 80% machine-washable Merino/20% nylon. 198 yards per skein. 6-8 stitches per inch.

PLYMOUTH ENCORE BOUCLE

Plymouth Encore Boucle – 75% Acrylic, 25% Wool. Super Bulky 2.5 sts=1 inch on US 11 needle. 101 yards per skein. Encore Boucle is not new to YWAT but we would like to call attention to this often overlooked yarn. Many beautiful colors and a perfect yarn for Prayer Shawls.
