New yarn at last! There will be an update on The Blue Brick’s Etsy site on Friday November 27th at 11am, EST.  In addition to our regular offerings, there will be Christmas kits available :) Christmas kits will be available for all bases except Point Pelee Lace and Manitoulin Merino, will cost $45 per kit, and will include the following:

1 Skein of yarn, in your choice of base and colour
1 Printed Knitting pattern, suited to your yarn (more on this soon!)
1 Framable 8×10 metallic print of the photo that inspired the yarn

When adding things to your cart, simple choose either ‘Holiday Gift Pack’ or ‘Just the Yarn Please!’ from the drop down menu.

Now, to the goodies!

Introducing the new addition to the family: ‘Frozen’.

Based off this photo, taken a few years ago during Toronto’s Christmas ice storm:

Moody and deep reddish/pink, with hits of white, black and brown throughout. This was my first time really playing with speckle dyeing, and I love it!

This is shown on my ‘Manitoulin Merino’ base, but will be available in all 5 of the Blue Brick’s current bases.

More goodies are in the offing, stay tuned!

There is no update on the studio, basically they’re working on it. We’re not letting it stop us though, and as much as it was initially demoralizing to bring all the yarn, dyes and tubs back home, it was quickly overshadowed by the joy of being back at doing what we love most; making beautiful yarn. Thank you to everyone for the encouraging words!
