The weather here has been truly terrible today with temperatures hovering around the 0⁰ mark all day, but I’m not complaining, I love any excuse to stay at home and get snuggly with my fur babies. It’s also given me the opportunity to do a massive website update.  As well as adding lots of brand new ranges (Lulu’s Yarns, Araucania, Namaste), I’ve also added a lot of new Trekking yarns, including some beautiful Pro Natura shades at a bargainous price!

 

The cold weather and a big glass of mulled wine have really got me in the Christmasy spirit and as Christmas was a complete wash out for us last year due to illness I’m going to make sure that the festive season is extra special this year, so to get the ball rolling I’ll be offering a whopping 20% off everything in the store (excluding KnitPicks) between 6pm and 10pm GMT tonight, Sunday 30th November.  To take advantage of the offer just enter code 'Christmas' during checkout.

Namaste Everyday Bag

For those looking for a knitting bag this Christmas we have a very small number of Namaste Everyday Bags available, they're not on the site yet but they should hopefully be listed in the next few days.  These gorgeous bags are made from animal friendly faux leather and measure a whopping 40cm x 20cm x 25cm.  I currently have the following colours available but stock is very very limited:
 
Raspberry, Black, Rust, Chocolate, Brick Red, Turquoise, Pink Rose
 
The bags are priced at £48.50 including postage and if you order before 23/11/08 we'll also include a free ball of yarn.
 
If you would like any further info please contact me.

 Denise Organizers
 

What a week!  In the last few days we've received a full delivery of Denise Needles & Organizers (pictured above), a selection of Shawl Sticks from Knitcellaneous as well as our very first KaratStix delivery, and there's still more to come!

 

This week we're expecting deliveries from KnitPicks and Nancy's Knit Knacks as well as lots of other goodies including Louet Gems Fingering Weight Yarn, a selection of Namaste Bags, UK Alpaca Sock Yarn, Artesano Alpaca Hummingbird DK Sock Yarn plus much much more.

 

As you'd expect it's going to take a little while to get everything up onto the site but I'm hoping to have the vast majority of the stuff on by Friday.  If, however, I've mentioned something that takes your fancy but you haven't seen it listed yet, give me a shout and I'll push it to the front of my To Do list.

 

On a final note, we have a couple of discount codes floating around in the cyber world at the moment, both of which are due to expire this Friday so why not take the opportunity to do a little gift shopping.

Baby Pink Chocolate Coffee Denim Forest

Lipstick Pumpkin Seafoam Wine Black
 
This week there'll be several big updates if all goes to plan as I'm expecting deliveries from Knitcellaneous, KaratStix and hopefully Denise.  In all three cases these will probably be the last deliveries I receive from these companies before Christmas so please buy early to avoid disappointment.
 
While I'm waiting for more goodies to arrive I've been updating the website with the scrummy new Jawoll yarns that arrived on Friday.  The Jawoll has been incredibly popular so we've extended the range to include another 10 shades, taking the current total to 15.  Purple is currently out of stock at Lang but we have some on back order which should hopefully be with us very soon.
