More Deep Discounts!

Saturday, August 21st, 2010

I’ve decided to put the last few skeins of the Mulberry Knitting Silk and the Tussah/Mulberry Blend on clearance at 75% off!

Here is the link http://www.indigomoonyarns.com/index.php?cPath=40&cart=9944b9831f39bfb1d3dad44ab1325b04

This is the same DK silk used in many of the Pure Silk  patterns by Debbie Bliss.  The DK silk is great for quick knitting, tanks and camis.

The Buttercup photos are found on the previous blog post.  As mentioned yesterday, the Buttercup is much darker than the Sunshine.

Happy shopping!

I’m back!

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

Yes I know I’ve been quiet for a while but you know…stuff happens :)

So today I spent time taking new photos of the Tonals - I hope they show off the yarn much better than before.   It’s actually the way I first posted photos (too bad I couldn’t figure out how to find them on my computer!) but changed to full skein shots as per some requests.  But I like the close-ups better … and since I’m the one taking the photos…I get to choose :)

For this week…in commemoration of the bright sunny weather…all yellow merino is 25% off.    I know it’s not the most favorite colour…but I happen to love it!  Especially Sunshine yellow:

(photo coming but computer upload just froze)

And here’s Buttercup which is a much darker/deeper yellow - same family just darker:

Funnily enough, the Buttercup is really quite popular…especially in Toronto, ON.

As usual, if the sale price doesn’t show just put a note on your order as I’m posting this before I forget and before I change the prices on the site.

And the SSL problems are fixed.  But the HST (new tax in BC) has hit a snag and I’m waiting on my web guy to fix it…so your invoice might show the wrong tax - no worries as I’ll adjust it manually and let you know the total before I ship.

Happy shopping….and happy knitting in the lazy days of summer!

Never made it…but there’s good news too :)

Sunday, June 20th, 2010

For those of you that attended the Knit Out in Victoria…sorry but I couldn’t make it.   Good news is that I will be running the Knit Out Special online.  Buy 5 skeins of the Tonals and West Coast Musings and get the 6th one free!  That means it’s a great time to start getting your Fall projects together…on the first day of summer!  The special will run for the rest of the week (til 25th).  Great time to get enough yarn for that special winter sweater or lots of 1 skein projects for Xmas gifts (I’m so cruel to mention this on the first day of summer!)

Happy Shopping!

Yarn Club for June

Friday, June 4th, 2010

Just received a request from a Yarn Club members so thought I’d post this offer in case anyone else from the Yarn Club is interested.  P posted this photo of the yarn …hope you don’t mind I “borrowed” it as I have not yet taken a photo and yours is great!

 image title

 I dyed and redyed natural indigo over fusticwood to get bluey green shading - it’s a bit darker green to my eye…but that could be just me :).  Good news is that I have some skeins available  for purchase for Yarn Club members.  The knot so good news (notice the pun here :) ) is that I had the tension on too tight when reskeining so there is 1 or 3 knots in each skein since the yarn snapped under tension.  The good news is that the yarn is just fine…the better news is that I will sell the skeins at $15 instead of $28….so they are basically half price!  Crazy but you caught me in a very generous mood :)  If you start a new ball at the knot you’ll know when to expect the end and not have to rip back.  I was going to sell them at 10% off …but almost 50% off has a certain ring to it don’t you think…cheers!

Off to Abbotsford Booth 601

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Phew!  I made it before the courier did (although he’s late due to vehicle problems which concerns me…a bit).  I’ve been working virtually non-stop for days to get ready for shipping to Abbotsford.  Usually I attend myself - and drive - so if I run out of time I just put everything in the van and sort it at the show.  This time I won’t be there myself so everything was being shipped via courier.  Here’s some of the boxes waiting for pick up:

shawlette0001.JPG

And some of the silk before being packed.  It is exquisite!!!  Not as much as I’d hoped in the mulberry silk …but it’s all reskeined and any skeins with more than 3 knots were held back so you can be assured great and troublefree skeins!

shawlette00241.JPG

The show is at the AgRec Centre in Abbotsford March 26-27 check here for details www.fibreswest.com

Indigo Moon Yarns will be at booth 601.  Lots of great yarns - new colourways - new yarns - the ever-popular superwash merino -  the oooh so sumptuous Silken Pleasures and…..Indigo Moon Yarn’s newest addition….I won’t tell you here…you’ll have to visit the show to find out or check the blog later this week…I’ll post on Thursday in case you want to rush on over to pick some up…it’s my most favorite yarn …and now it’s finally available for all of you! 

Happy Spring
