JUPITER says HI!
Thank you so much!!!!!!! I wasn’t sure if anyone would post. But I was overwelmed with the help. That’s what ’s so great about the internet, it really is a great medium where we knitters can all come together and share ideas and grow in knowledge. Cool.
It is a difficult task coming up with a name. There is so much to a name and I want it to be significant with some underlining meaning. You guys are sure making it hard for me to choose - SUCH GREAT IDEAS! I will be making a decision in the next week. So if you have any new inspirations, let me know.
OK Yarn Progress: I have to say a little slow. I have hit some snags. I was planning to have it ready by the 1st of October now it looks more like the middle of the month. It just takes time analyzing all the samples. I want it to be perfect.
I will be out of town this week working on the yarn but I will try to get to my computer every so often to answer emails and questions.
Talk again soon.
Kim

We are looking for a name for our new bulky rug yarn. And we thought it would be kind of fun to make a contest out of it.The yarn is mohair/wool and will be offered in beautiful fall colors.
If we choose your name idea, you will recieve 2 SKEINS OF THE NEW YARN, your choice of color.
Please put your name ideas in ”Comments”
It will be so interesting to see what you come up with. Good luck!
Thank you, Kim

Many of you have been asking about our plan for rugs. Yes, it is definately coming! It takes a long time to develope a new yarn as we are finding out. We have finally recieved our sample from the manufacturer and it needs a little tweaking. But here’s a glimpse of the raw yarn. 
It is mohair and wool, bulky with a little shimmer, and very sturdy for rugs. I love the new colors - beautiful fall tones. We will be starting out with about 12 colors, initially showing the first 4 colors on the site HOPEFULLY by the end of the month. I can’t wait to see the final yarn. As soon as we have it, we will immediately have it on the website. Since we buy direct from manufacturer we will be able to offer great prices.
Here is a rug s
tarted on the knitting board.
IT IS NOT THE RUG YARN, but it gives you an idea of the look and thickness you can achieve.
