Sock yarn Clearout

Don't forget I have just a few balls left of the Opal Tiger coming in a couple of weeks ITS HERE- all the rest is promised.  If you want to reserve a ball or two it will be $17.50 a ball.

A new email address

Hi everyone - I have a new email address

It it lisa.cann@sockmonster.com.au you can get to it now by just clicking on the link to the top left of this blog and the words that say 'Email Me'.  Hope tp  hear from you.

Hope this helps

Thank you for the fantastic time at Handknitters

Just wanted to say a big thank you for the great response I had at Handknitters Guild Fair - I think it took me until Wednesday to recover - I have never talked so much (although i think my family would dispute this).   I met a lot of new and existing customers aka friends and had the delicious job of attempting to addict every browser to knitting with sock yarn and  the lovely Lornas Laces.

Over the next week I should be able to put up a big set of pics as to what stock I currently have and also when orders will go off next to Lornas Laces.  I'm thinking I will put an order in to Lornas the week after Bendigo Sheep and Wool Show.  So if you would like to order anything please email me.  I'm also planning to hold a small stock of Shepherd Sock and Helens Lace - this is a truly beautiful yarn and if you have any ideas re favourite colourways I would love to hear from you.  Lace is all over the blogs at the moment and Wendy has started up a new Yahoo group called Summer of Lace (although ours is technically a Winter of Lace!  I would have had a pic of the stall last Sunday but I forgot to take the camera out of the bag!  Thanks again to everyone who participated.

Its here, Its here - 1st Lornas shipment arrives

Its here the first shipment arrived airmail - in six days - sorry to those that were still saving!!!   Oh all I can say is it is a colourfest - ABSOLUTELY STUNNING.  They are some of the most fantastic colours that I have seen - haven't patted yet but really excited about the order - hope you are too.  I am starting to build another order and will have some samples at the Handknitters Expo on June 5 in Coburg.  Email me with any questions at lisa.cann@yvvaluations.com.au

Thanks so much for your support everyone - I am really excited!!!

Available Lorna's order sock yarn

Hi

Exciting news the first half of the order is shipped and the following colourways are available at $11.50 AUD a skein (to be bought in two skein lots for one pair of socks) - total $23.00 AUD, I anticipate they will arrive in the next 4 or 5 weeks from the US.  Feel free to pre-order these as once they are gone it will be another couple of months before they are available again.  There is only two skeins coming of each colourway - I told you I was a small operation!
