Chèvre, a Bare Naked Wools yarn

Posted on Posted in lace/shawls, projects, yarn and dyeing

Note: Chèvre  and the Stonewall Husky kits featured below are now sold out. Thank you all for supporting another new limited-run artisan product!  We’re glad you’re just as excited as we are about the new yarn!

I know you’ve seen Anne talk about this great mohair/merino blend a few times on the blog. You’ve seen her swatch with it

and now it’s available! I introduce to you Chèvre, a worsted 60% mohair wool/40% merino artisan yarn.

Each skein yields 230 yards per 4 ounces. The color is rich in depth and variance, which Anne has named Charcoal.

And to celebrate this spectacular new Bare Naked Wools yarn, Anne has released a special edition Stonewall Husky pattern that is only available in kits here. The kit includes four skeins of Chèvre and the limited edition pattern with instructions for a scarf, two stole sizes, or a baby blanket.

This special edition pattern is great for men

and women

and would be a great way to kickstart some Christmas gift knitting!

Speaking of gift knitting, you may want to add a hand written note with your special handknit. And what better way than with Knitspot Vintage Note Cards!

Aren’t these precious?! They set includes all 6 cards with images from Anne’s archive of family photos and feature garments handknit by her grandma and great aunts for their children during the 1930s. I get such a kick out of old family photos of children dressed head to toe in handknits! I must get a photo of Baby Knitspot this winter in a hat, sweater, socks, mittens and maybe even his knit leggings. What a cozy bundle of joy he’ll be!

Chèvre, the Stonewall Husky kits, and the note cards are all limited edition offerings by Knitspot. Hurry to the store! They’re going fast…

  1. Oh, the notecards are so precious. My dear grandma sewed, embroidered, and crafted lovely things for her grandbabies, but didn’t take up knitting until much later. These beautiful photos bring back so many wonderful memories.

  2. Next time I read your site, I hope that this doesnt let down me around this one. I am talking about, I know it ended up being my choice to read, on the other hand actually believed youd have got something intriguing to say. All I notice is a bunch of whining with regards to something that you can fix in the event you werent way too busy seeking attention.
