Madelinetosh Update
If you ordered some Madelinetosh yarn in my May Pre Order event I have good news, this shipment has arrived and orders are being filled. Everything except the Pashmina arrived, Madelinetosh has this yarn on back order. This also means Madelinetosh yarns are back in stock and I've added Tosh Vintage!
Tosh DKDesigner Ivete Tecedor of Chiagu dwells in New York where she's surrounded by the latest fashions. Fortunately Ivete is a talented knitwear artist who takes the best of what she sees and translates it beautifully into wearable garments for you to knit. These 5 new designs for Fall/Winter 2011-12 are flattering with warmth in mind.
AdrieCables are popular this season and Ivete has used them on her new Adrie vest design to make it unique, yet fashionable. The unusual construction of Adrie will keep you interested as you knit and the flattering lines and casual, easy way it wears will make it one of your favorite sweaters. Adrie is knit in only 3-4 skeins of Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light, the new shipment has lots of new colorways to choose from!

LoreleyUnique accessories are a Chiagu hallmark and the colorful Loreley Scarf makes a statement. The perfect “mindless” knit, it features garter stitch broken up by eyelet rows to keep it fun and its knit in a blend of 8 different colors of Koigu's hand painted fingering yarn KPPPM! Ivete has an eye for color and she's put together very special Kits for Loreley featuring color blends of KPPPM that are unique to my website and once they're sold out, they're gone!
City Cowl is a 2 in 1 pattern: a Cowl and an Infinity Scarf! While the garter stitch is easy enough for a beginner, this pattern uses advanced techniques like provisional cast on and grafting the ends together, making it a great project to expand your skill set!
Runner's Watchcap
S3 Hat The Super Simple Slouch or the S3 Hat uses two strands of sock yarn held together to give it drape. It features the modern slouchy fit that’s seen everywhere on the streets and runways. Designed to be worn low on the forehead, S3 will fully cover your ears & keep you toasty warm all winter.
