Have you taken this yarn out into the sunshine? A beautiful golden color just pops right out of it. Beautiful.

I received my color cards last week for gloss lace and a few others. The colors in the catalog and on my computer screen do not do justice to the real thing. The colors are beautiful. I can't decide which ones I'll buy but buy I wil.

Do the color cards come with all the new colors, even the ones that won't be in for a few months?

The gloss card has 12 colors. The elegance has 12. The swish dk has 20. Some of the cards I ordered will not be shipped until sometime in May. I just supposed the new colors for the other yarns weren't ready yet. Just guessing.

The color cards will be updated with the new colors. This takes a little bit of time to make, as the yarn needs to be produced first, then the color card.

All of the new yarns look absolutely fabulous. I recently "stocked-up" on my yarns from Knit Picks. But I will have to try some of these.

I also just saw the new "samplers" and am very excited about that too.

Why would anyone shop for yarn any where else?

The new sampler kits are so helpful. I just ordered all three! It's great to sample some unfamiliar yarn but also I love the idea of the color themes. More please!

Would it be possible to go back to the yarn-pages style that opened a large, up-close photo when you clicked on a color? It would be great if the window stayed open so you could compare several colors and/or yarn types/weights. It would probably take extra time and server space so I can understand why you might not want to do that but I for one would appreciate it!
By the way, I love the home page photo with the "greens" on dishes!

I have been admiring the new sample kits, but I have a question. I can't really afford to buy all three kits (I have already ordered one, though), but I'm very interested in some of the patterns for the kits I didn't buy. Will those patterns be available for sale at some time? I'm especially interested in the cup/mug cozies and the fingerless mittens/gloves/wristwarmers. Any chance?

I just got my new spring sampler in the Georgian colorway and I love it! I am definitely going to have to get the other two as well. I love the idea of the patterns for the cute little projects, and trying out the new yarns at the same time. My favorite is the CotLin, I like the feel of it and the drape. So I'm starting out with the wristwarmers; I may have to make a sweater out of the Kohlrabi color!
