We\u2019re delighted to announce the recent arrival of three new colors in Baa Ram Ewe Titus!<\/p>\n

\"DSCN4318\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Titus is a fingering weight blend of alpaca, Wensleydale, and Bluefaced Leicester wools, sourced and spun entirely in the UK.<\/p>\n

\"DSCN4320\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019re proud to have been the first US stockist of the stuff, back in 2012 when it came in just one color.<\/p>\n

\"DSCN4319\"<\/p>\n

Since then, Titus has been warmly embraced by knitters, crocheters, and weavers all over the world, and the palette has expanded considerably.<\/p>\n

We have three sample garments knit in Titus at the shop, which hint at the many possibilities for this special yarn: “Baht ‘At,”<\/a> a pair of intricately cabled fingerless mitts, “Color Affection,”<\/a>\u00a0a three-color garter stitch shawl, and “Northallerton,”<\/a> a slouchy colorwork hat. Titus is happy at a range of gauges, depending upon how dense a fabric you’re after, and upon the kind of garment you’re making.<\/p>\n
