Koigu Collector's Club!
The Koigu Collector's Club is a monthly limited edition one-of-a-kind themed colorway of Koigu Painters palette Premium Merino (KPPPM), hand dyed by Taiu Landra, co-owner of Koigu Wool Designs. Each colorway is created exclusively for Koigu-stocking LYS's. 

We'll admit it: there is so much going on right now that we're a little late telling you about March's theme: Ocean ~ bright colors inspired by a Spring Break vacation! So check out that March installment before we forget to tell you about April, which we'll probably do sometime in, uh...well, later anyway.


There are also still a few skeins available of February's color,  Vitamin D ~ a mix of mostly sunny yellows with bright pops to help chase away those seasonal winter blues!

We used two skeins for the beyond adorable Barb's Koigu Ruffle scarf pattern.

 

New Loot!
We've got oodles of goodies in the shop right now!
 
The Bee and Bloom Stitch Marker Set - these charming sets are made with sweet enameled bee charms, Czech glass and antiqued bronze flower beads. Each set consists of five ring stitch markers that fit up to a US10 needle and one removable progress keeper. Handmade in California.

The Kitchener Sock Fob - Do you ever need help remembering how to work the Kitchener stitch on the toe of a sock? This handy little tool is just what you need! A little chain attaches this wooden sock to a knitting bag or keychain so it's always easy to find! Handmade in Rhode Island by Katy Westcott of Katrinkles. Size 2" x 2"; silver chain included!

Gingiber Enamel Pins - Gingiber is the work of Arkansas-based artist Stacie Bloomfield. Inspired by the playful nature of animals, Gingiber offers classic animal-centric stationery and gifts for both the young and the young-at-heart! We love these super cute enamel pins...because a project bag can never have enough bling!
