upcoming yarns for jwrayco

Now that Leslie has the blog set up, I can now chatter on it. We just received some wonderful new superwash merino in DK weight. Great for children's garments and so very soft. Lace weight yarns- we have them. Natural shetland in grey and white, alpaca/merino 50-50, and the fingering all wool. Our very special sock yarn has 2% sterling silver mixed throughout as well as a superwash merino,silk and nylon blend.
Like lumpy bumpy, well we have that as well. Janet has made up some beanies in that yarn. One skein is adquate. Great fun. As all of the above are in limited quantities except for the fingering wool, we do not have them on the web site as yet.
Keep checking our blog for more updated information. We love to hear from you as well.
