Estelle presents Borgo de Pazzi


Estelle Yarns has found a marvelous Italian yarn company which mills some gorgeous yarns at beautifully reasonable prices. We will be stocking several for the fall and have already received the following.
Artilea- NEW

70% Wool, 30% Polyamide, this beautiful, self-striping yarn not only stripes, but also has lengths of varying textures throughout.  Bulky: 10-12 sts per 4" on an 8-9mm needle 50gms, 65 meters
 
To see all the colours:
 

Kuki- NEW
Soft and feminine shades are what makes up this yarn range, which is composed of 65% Wool, 20% Ramie and 15% Hemp. Nice and chunky to knit up warm accessories quick!  50gms, 110 meters
 
 
 

Luna- NEW

 
This yarn comes in a gorgeous range of colours! A combination of 50% Merino Wool, 40% Acrylic and 10% Alpaca, this yarn is soft, warm, and easy to care for. What more could you ask for in a yarn? 50gms, 80 meters    16sts per 4" on a 6mm 
 
 
 
Grosso
 
 
100% pure wool, extra super bulky
 

 
 
 
One skein, 25mm needles. Cast on 7 sts…knit until just enough to bind off…weave in ends..Add button. Talk about a last minute gift. You could knit this up on a lunch hour.
 
Needles this large can be hard to find and often quite expensive. Estelle yarns will soon have available a reasonably priced 25mm straight which we will be stocking. Will let you know as soon as they are in.
