We've added new yarns for the Spring from Harrisville, Bergere, Kathmandu, Nature Spun, Schaeffer, Louisa Harding, Nori and Gedifra, including hemp, cotsoy, bamboo, cotton, and blends. We've also stocked up on our locally produced yarns from Moonlit Meadows, Mt. Ascutney, Mt. Nickwauket, Snowshoe Alpaca, and Parris Hill Farm! And we have alpaca, Lincoln longwool, Icelandic and Border-Leicester rovings for needle felting and spinning.
