Kelbourne is our favorite new-to-us vendor, and we are excited to be carrying more and more of their yarns. For instance, we put what’s left of Berroco Pima Soft on sale and are replacing it with Kelbourne Skipper, a sustainably grown Peruvian cotton. Since Berroco got bought by a private equity firm, we are much happier working with small companies, especially a woman-owned politically outspoken company like Kelbourne Woolens.
Another new yarn is Keystone, a washable worsted made from deadstock acrylic and US wool. It keeps fiber out of the wastestream and provides a sturdy and affordable US made yarn, only $9 per 100g ball!
We’ve also expanded our color offerings and quantities of Germantown, a US made feltable wool yarn. It’s great to crochet or knit with yarns you can feel great about!
We’ve also expanded Harmony, Kelbourne’s mohair and silk yarn. The last bits of Berroco Aerial are in the sale bin.
