This week’s featured yarn: Stained Glass Wool and Recycled Silk Yarn

Save 20% This week only-Stained Glass: Wool and Reclaimed Silk Yarn
Silk and wool married so perfectly together. This is yarn that you’ve always wanted. You’ve dreamed of this yarn. I know I have!
This creative yarn was made in a wonderful small family-owned co-op/mill where 70 women and 30 men work and get paid fair wages to sustain themselves and their families.
The yarn comes in 2 different plies and it makes the thickness a little different.
The 2 ply has 84 yards per skein and is a worsted weight and the 4 ply has 70 yards per skein and is a chunky weight. Each skein is 100g. Every skein is a unique collection of color!

Hi there!
Did you have a nice week? Happy it’s the weekend?
The current events lately have been just crazy. And my heart goes out to those in the southern part of the US that have been affected by these storms.
In the spirit of Darn Good Yarn, for every ball of Gumball Recycled Silk Yarn sold on the site this weekend, $.50 will go to the American Red Cross to help.
To check out the selection of Gumball Recycled Silks, please visit this link:

Thank you for your continued support in helping me help women on the other side of world to right into our own backyard.

And the winners are…..
April 4, 2011
Hi friends,
OK this was so tough. The one terrible downside to these contests is choosing. I personally hate it because there are usually some good ones out there! This time it was really tough because I had over 300 entries… um holy smokes! And they were all super inventive. But alas, I had to take a big-girl-pill and pick one even though I felt like kicking and screaming.
So, below are the names of the winners of the silk sari ribbon color naming challenge!
Congrats and stay tuned for the next contest, you could be the next winner! But for today, these winners will get a free skein of the color they won for!
And for this week, these new colors will be on sale! So get ‘em while they’re hot!
xoxo
