Have you heard of
Julie Hoover? Her designs are clean and modern and use fibers like silk, cashmere, merino and stainless steel. And even though she
lives in Alaska (where I'm betting they won't see 80 degrees for months...right now, the headline photo on her website shows tree trunks buried in snow!) she has a few patterns that are perfect for warm - ok, maybe even hot - weather.
Yesterday, the Habu yarn* suggested for two of them arrived in the shop.
Specifically, the Tsumugi Silk for Insouciant.

And the Silk Stainless Steel and Merino for Decalage.

| we've put together suggested color pairings - note that you could use a single color of merino and a single color of silk/stainless and you'd need only three cones of merino and one cone of silk/stainless |
...and Theresa tells me that the silk for
Tisse should be in the next Fed Ex delivery (hopefully today!)
*in addition to these three yarns, we also have more cotton gima and more kits.
