Sirdar is at it again!

Yes, Sirdar is at it again -
 with a wonderful assortment of n"ewe" yarns
 and of course n"ewe" patterns to support their yarns.

Snuggly Baby |Speckles
We all love to knit with Sirdar yarns for our favourite babies and I know you will love this one also.. 
Baby Speckles is a cotton acrylic blend with a speckled look.
It is a standard dk weight yarn so you can use it for any dk patterns including a project for yourself. 
New Sirdar Books
 You will find lots of great n"ewe" patterns in these books.
They both use worsted./aran weight yarns and have patterns for projects from 4 years to adults.
More Sirdar Books

The top book is for
Baby Crofter and has 13 designs for newborn to 7 years.
Several n"ewe" colours have just arrived for your knitting pleasure.

The other book is for
Baby Bamboo with 13 patterns for all the little ones you love.
We have a nice selection of colours including some n"ewe" ones.

These two yarns are interchangeable so that gives you even more reasons to knit.

Don't worry
Sirdar has not forgotten summer knitting for adults.

Next week I will feature their lovely n"ewe" summer yarn and patterns that are now is stock

P.S.
We will be closed on Monday for Family Day.

Happy St. Patricks Day


I was pleasantly surprised when I checked out how many selections of green yarns there are in the shop. There are green sock yarns, green baby yarns and green medium and chunky weight yarns to choose from. Even green extra thick yarns. There are green yarns with other colours mixed in them and also green ones that self shade. Look at the wide range of green colours in the picture.

The green sweaters from left to right are a fashionable adult sweater in shades of green and rose knit with Marble DK called Moss. In the centre is a cute little girls sweater - knit from the top down (no sewing) - knit with Cabin Fever Cotton Tweed called Lime and knit using their pattern called Sam, Sadira and Katie. On the right is a cosy light green sweater knit with Sirdar Big Softee called Souflee.

I am sure there is a green yarn for everyone and every project!

When I think of St. Patricks Day we think of the colour green and of good luck. So good luck with your green coloured projects or what ever coloured project(s) you are working on.
