What's New Wednesday!

Cloudy skies and rainy days are for wrapping up in warm yarn.
Blue Sky's EXTRA is a lush baby alpaca and cozy merino blend
that works up quickly into shawls, hats, and cowls to ward off winter's chill.
218 yds  4-5 sts/in on US 7-9
Shown above:  Cane Bay Wrap, Sweet 16 Hat, and North Hollow Cowl.
We have the patterns.
 
Dyed in the Wool is a 100% bluefaced leicester wool from Spincycle Yarns in Bellingham, Washington, that looks like hand-spun.
All yarns are dyed in the wool, resulting in intense saturation and unpredictable color changes. Skeins within a dye lot will blend together beautifully for a larger project, yet every skein is one-of-a-kind.
 
Doesn't the Le Weekend Shawl look beautiful in it? 
Le Weekend is a free pattern on Ravelry by pattern by Jan Henley.
What colors would you choose?
