Galileo & Reverie! INTRODUCING

SeptemberHighlightsI’m so excited to introduce our newest needles, Sunstruck!

I personally love using Harmony wood needles for the majority

of my knitting, but this new set of Sunstruck has wooed me

away with its handsome blond good looks. They’ve been

especially nice when I’m working with bright multicolor yarn,

as my stitches show up so clearly against the subtle grain of the

wood. Check out the whole new line of Sunstruck needles.

Our new fall wool yarn colors have arrived, including brand

new shades in favorite lines like Wool of the Andes, Swish,

Stroll, and Palette. Palette is especially exciting, as we’ve grown

the line to a whopping 150 colors! Kerin really outdid herself

during that color selection meeting, and we’ve added some

great subtle transition colors such as soft pinks and heathered

neutrals. So many new colors have arrived that we were only

able to show a selection in this catalog – make sure to check

out the full selection online!

This month, we’re introducing Galileo, our new 50%

Merino/50% bamboo blend. It’s a sleek two-ply sport weight,

perfect for gently draping cardigans and other sophisticated

garments that could use a slight shimmer and a silky feel. This

is a great yarn for body-skimming patterns where you want

coverage but not too much warmth.

Reverie is our other new yarn for this catalog – it’s 80% baby

alpaca/20% acrylic in a brushed two-ply worsted weight. This

yarn is all about loft and comfort, and it knits up into a plush

and squishy fabric with surprisingly nice stitch definition. I

can’t wait to use this in oversized open-front cardigans and

soft, soft accessories for the holiday gift season.

As always, if you have any questions about our products (new

or old), feel free to give us a call or send us an email!

INTRODUCING

Now knitters have even more options.™Sunstruck™

A blond twist on our ever-popular Harmony

wood needles, Sunstruck’s golden layers

of laminated birch allow every stitch to be

beautifully displayed on a sun-kissed finish.

Perfect for working with dark or variegated

yarns, our new Sunstruck line of needles

have the same strength, stability, and sharp

points that you know and love - all with a

lighter wood finish, providing endless hours of

enjoyable knitting.

Galileo

Galileo is our new sport weight yarn that

combines the lush softness of Merino wool

with the extraordinary luster and strength

of bamboo. This exquisite blend of luxurious

fibers produces a yarn with wonderful

elasticity and bounce while the bamboo adds

lovely drape and a silky soft hand – a perfect

fiber combination for those with sensitive skin

as well as special baby projects. Also excellent

for cables and textured stitches, Galileo’s

fantastic sheen reflects light beautifully to

display crisp stitches and sophisticated details.

Whether you indulge your creativity with

lightweight cardigans, elegant tops, or stunning

wraps, you’ll love exploring all of Galileo’s

alluring possibilities!

Dazzling, brilliant colors inspired by the night sky,

and a sheen that shimmers like the stars!

Reverie

Reverie blends the drape and softness of baby alpaca with acrylic to create a gently spun, two-ply yarn that is all about loft and comfort. This wonderfully versatile, worsted weight yarn gets its flexible gauge from the brushed fibers that create a super soft, yet subtle halo. You’ll love Reverie for creating everything from soft, billowing cowls and dramatic infinite scarves to cozy sweaters and elegant cardigans. No matter where your creativity takes you, the cloud-like decadence of Reverie is sure to inspire and delight!
