New Arrivals at The Nest!!

We are very excited to annouce that we have received a shipment of the following yarns:

Malabrigo Worsted in 9 delicious colors.

This hand-dyed yarn is incredibly soft and a joy to knit with. Here are some photos of the new selection and two items knitted out of Malabrigo Worsted. Doesn't it just look delicious?? 

We also have a great selection of Malabrigo Sock Yarn, which is a great value at 440 yards per skein of 100% superwash merino wool.

Cascade 220 Superwash in 14 colors. Mashine wash and mashine dry. Economical and perfect for children's garments!

We also have some new stunning kettle-dyed cotton for lace knitting. And we are expecting more new items later this week! Please stop in, or call The Nest at 848.2444 for more information on these popular new yarns.
