What's New? - August 2017

Fall is right around the corner, and new yarns and products have been pouring in.

It’s almost time for sock season and Regia’s Pairfect yarns are our new fun, and funky favorite, with colorways designed by Arne and Carlos.  Pairfect yarns promise you a quick way to perfectly matched socks with their unique yellow indicator.  All you have to do is find the end of the yellow yarn, cast on, and knit your sock.  After you have finished the first sock, you pull the yarn until you find the next bright yellow indicator and repeat the process for your second sock.  Pairfect skeins have 459 yards and are 75% wool, 25% polyamide, machine washable in cool water, and dryer safe on low.


Baby Blossom Yarns have returned!  Our first order disappeared so quickly it had to be brought back for an encore.  This time we are offering it in DK and Chunky weights and more colorways.  These yarns feature long color changes and bands of instant flower fields. Both weights are acrylic/polyamide blends that are washer and dryer safe.  Baby Blossom DK has 362 yards. Baby Blossom Chunky has 170 yards.

We’ve found a new, buttery cotton with a huge palette of vibrant colors for you.  This may be your new favorite! Butterfly Super 10 is a DK weight, with up to 50 different colors.  If we don’t have your color in the store, we can get it for you.  This is a machine washable,  dye-fast, unshrinkable cotton with a subtle shine that won’t pill. Each hank is 250 yards.







Not all of our new items can be knitted or crocheted.  We have some other goodies too.

Love + Leche lotion bars and anywhere balm is here! These all natural
products are made with pure beeswax, coconut oil, almond oil, calendula flowers, and essential oils, that smell amazing.  The lotion bars are amazing for dry hands, feet, elbows, anywhere that can use some softening up.  The anywhere balm packs the same punch in a smaller tin perfect for tossing in your knitting bag for dry skin, and chapped lip emergencies.

You know all of us crafty folk are always looking for places to jot down quick notes while we work up our latest creation.  We have several notebooks and notepads featuring your favorite fiber art.

 If you're using your notebooks for tick-marks there may be a better solution.  How about a knitting abacus?  These handmade bracelets will keep you on track.  Adjust it to fit and then use the super-strong magnetic clasp to take it on and off.    

It’s also important that we stay hydrated during our long crafting binges.  Check out these reusable water bottles!

But wait, there’s more! These are the perfect wine glasses for those “stitch n bitch” sessions with friends.  A few of us are always at their Knits End.

We hope to see you soon!  Keep an eye out here, as well as the Yarn Rhapsody Facebook page for events and announcements.  We're planning an exciting fall for you.
