Fall Colors

I thought  you might like to see the new fall colors. They were in the newsletter I sent out yesterday, but figured I should post them here too. Did I hear someone say that they don't get the newsletter? Well you can sign up here. No need to worry about your email box getting inundated, I'm not nearly as good at spreading the news as I should be.

We moved a little away from our usual Chicago based naming scheme this season. We thought it would be fun for us each of us to tell you a piece of our story through the colors. So, without further ado:

My parents met in Arlington, VA. 

Michael started school in Flushing, NY.


Amanda was born in Louisville, KY


Mento hails from Monrovia, Liberia. 


Casey went to high school in Reno, NV. 
Bettie met her beau in Rippey, IA. 


Tito had his first kiss in Rockaway, NY.

Tony's fiirst date was in Worcester, MA. 


    (We have 8 colors and only 7 people, so we added the story of my friend Tony who works in the studio right next door.) I didn't think you'd mind.

    We've also got some cute models that we'll be posting over to Facebook and Twitter and the like. Here's one that Amanda created in Reno called The Biggest Little City Cowl. It's a freebie over on Ravelry. 




As always, we'll dye any of our yarns in any of the colors. Including our newest yarn, Haymarket. I have Jaywalkers in Arlington on the needles right now. What are you thinking about?

Love them all!

Love the colors but this Chicago transplant wants you to keep the names local (if you have to leave town consider Chapel Hill- I hear Carolina has a lovely shade of blue....)

Can't wait to pick up a few colors.

I am from Worcester, MA, so it is cool that it has its very own color--though why so brown?

Yum! What scrumptious colors! I want one of each...
