NEW Baby yarns from Shepherd Yarns

We extended our large selection of baby yarns by these two fine products from New Zealand:

Baby Wool 4 Ply - A new fingering weight pure wool baby yarn that is mashine washable. This is a great yarn substitute for some of the older Penguin and Paton's children's designs that call for a fingering weight yarn. Each 50g ball offers 165 meters and retails for $6.95 - check the shade card.

Baby Velvet DK - A fun, double knitting yarn that looks like a cross between a chenille and bouclee. This is a wool.nylon blend that is machine washable, making it perfect for baby and kid's wear. Each 50g skein has 117 meters and retails for $6.95. Here is the shade card.

We have in stock several lovely patterns for this yarn as well, as for example this Moss Stitch Sweater with Crew Neck. Ask for the pattern ($6.25).
