Color for Days with Madeline Tosh
A beautiful and big shipment of yarns from Madeline Tosh has just arrived at Wool & Grace! We restocked in our favorites, Tosh Merino Light (pictured below) and Vintage (pictured above) in new colors that have us falling in love with these beautiful yarns all over again.
Vintage is a perennial favorite worsted-weight yarn. This hand-dyed workhorse is a super-wash wool with tons of twist so it flies off your needles. We love it for every member of the family: it's super-soft and easy to care for and it comes in a range of hues that delight every sense of style. Each skein of Vintage is 200 yards and $24.
Tosh Merino Light is a fingering-weight staple. It's super-soft and becomes the most gorgeous shawls, wraps, sweaters, hats, mittens and cowls. We love to mix it with other yarns (like the current fav Val Cowl) or to let its great personality stand on its own. Each skein of Tosh Merino Light is 420 yards and $24.
All yarns from Madeline Tosh are hand-dyed in Texas and come from ethically raised & sheared sheep in South Africa and Peru. Click the pics and links to see all colors available and to shop online!
NJ Wool Walk is Almost Here!
Mark your calendars! This year's NJ Wool Walk will take place from April 4th to April 7th, and we hope you'll be sure to stop by Wool & Grace! This year's NJ Wool Walk has 18 participating yarn stores across the state. We love the supportive community vibe that this yarn-filled weekend spreads throughout New Jersey. Be sure to pick up a passport to get access to sales and prizes at participating shops. Passports are $6 each. A $1 donation will be made to Autism Speaks for every passport sold.
Warm Up with Techno
A nice big shipment from Blue Sky Fibers has us fully stocked with Techno once again, and we're feeling inspired to work with this light and warm fiber again and again. Techno is a marvel, with its sturdy core blasted with soft alpaca to give you a light, fuzzy, soft and warm wool that is as delightful to knit as it is to wear. Knit up one of this year's favorite accessories, the Two Point Cowl from Churchmouse with three skeins of this wonderful yarn. Each soft/warm/light skein of Techno is $23.20 and 120 yards!

Wrapping Up Spring
This week's blog is inspired by a knitter's wedding request, but it got us thinking about capelets and shawls as indispensable layers to wear over our warm weather wardrobes. Join us as we look these versatile layering pieces. We discuss fiber choices that give these pieces legs in the spring and summer, being flexible with yarn weights, and how to wear them whether it's hot or cold outside. Click here to read more and learn how to work these pieces into your year-round knitting routine!
