Happy Thursday, Yarn Lusters! Congrats on getting to the tail end of your week. I know I’ve had a long one, but I’ve got some goodies in store for you

Shop Update
More sock yarn and other skeins have been loaded in the shop in the last 24 hours. There’s more to come by tomorrow morning as well, but definitely stop by www.yarnlust.com to check them out and snag the ones you love.

Notable skeins in the shop right now include the following:

• Neapolitan & Mint Chip ice cream colorways
• sexy & dark skeins like Debauchery, Poison & Antidote
• guy friendly shades like Quarry, Sencha & Into the Woods (in the Heavier Weight section)

Yarn Lust Contest Update
Thanks to the ladies who have submitted their suggestions! I’m keeping this contest open until the end of May to see if any other good ideas come through. Here’s the scoop for those who may have missed it before:

I’ve been trying to give some clever names to some of my yarn lines… and would love to hear your ideas or feedback. I’m shooting for about three words to describe each one. Something to work along with the ones I already have, such as:

• All That Glitters (sock yarn with silver)
• Back to Basics (basic merino superwash sock)
• Better than Basics (more tightly spun merino superwash sock)
• Bit of Cashmere (20/80 cashmere/merino sock)
• Sweet Sea Story (seacell blend sock)

You get the picture. Here are the ones that are still in need of names:

• Bamboo blend sock yarn
• Tencel blend sock yarn
• Colonial wool/nylon sock yarn
• Silk/merino sock yarn
• Something to identify my organic yarns (Sport, Worsted, Bulky)
• Something to identify my BFL yarns (Sock, Aran)

Please email all suggestions to rosalynn[at]yarnlust[dot]com
Each person who submits a name that I will use will receive a fun surprise from me (think mini-skeins, stitchmarkers, some sort of fun package from yours truly).

Yarn Lust @ The Knitting Hutch
I’m pleased to announce that The Knitting Hutch is now carrying some of my yarn as a part of their Pacific Coast Collection. If you’ve been dyeing (pun intended) to check out my latest “Better than Basics” sock yarn, just go to the easy to remember link:www.yarnlust.com/knittinghutch/

’til next time, happy knitting & crocheting!
