View Full Version : Hey--Shine in Worsted!
Maybe everyone else already knows this, but Knit Picks now has Shine in worsted weight! (http://www.knitpicks.com/yarns/itemid_5420140/yarn_display.aspx)
Not great yardage, but it looks awfully pretty!
Ack! When did they get all these new yarns? I didn't get any notice!

Gah!! :shock: :cheering:
Shine (http://www.knitpicks.com/yarns/itemid_5420122/yarn_display.aspx) - has new colors
Crayon (http://www.knitpicks.com/yarns/itemid_5420121/yarn_display.aspx) - has new colors
And i have to wonder if they're having computer problems since all the yarn on page 1 say they are $99,999,999.00 / ball. Whoa! :shock:
:roflhard:
Oh, and is Twirl (http://www.knitpicks.com/yarns/itemid_5420131/yarn_display.aspx) new?

Everyone seems so excited about "Shine". I'm not familiar with this yarn. What have you all made with it?
I did just get an email about Main Line. I must have discovered them right after they went up!
I've actually never used Shine, but I'm tempted to try it out now! And Main Line looks lovely too.

Boy, I had hoped they would produce a worsted weight cotton--but , didn't think it would happen this fast Wooohoooo!!
I :heart: knitpicks!!
being from the south necessitates using cotton for almost everthing I knit. Even in the dead of winter a bulky cotton is all that is needed.
:thumbsup: knitpicks rules!

My timing is awful. I ordered a bunch of Merino Style for a sweater yesterday afternoon, then I check my e-mail this morning and see they have new yarn. Figures. Better on my budget anyway!
