This is so exciting!

Our first Mystery Kit is now available! Orders are rolling in! Boy, oh boy am I going to have some dyeing to do!

I finished knitting the sample of this project about 11:00 last night and worked until Midnight to get it posted!

We’ve gone with a simple project for this first kit and in order to help keep the cost of the kits low, we are treating these a bit different from our regular orders.

Here is how it works. Ordering for Mystery Kit #1 will remain open until October 4th. Once all the orders are in, I’ll dye up the yarns all at once (okay, really in 2 batches since its 2 colorways) then after the yarn has had a chance to dry and I’ve gotten it skeined out, I’ll be mailing all the kits together, on or about October 9th. That way most people will get their kits about the same time so it should really be a surprise for everyone!

Sometime after all the kits have been mailed we will reveal the new pattern and yarns on our site and make them generally available. So if you aren’t up for a surprise you will still have a chance to try this project, though not at the Mystery Kit prices. We are offering the kit for a bit under regular retail since it comes as a surprise and since we are dyeing them all at once rather than one at a time. I save labor, so you save cost, fair no?

I’m really excited both about the way this project turned out and about the 2 new colorways! I really think you are going to like them! DH has given his seal of approval, both on the project and on the new colors! And those of you who know him, you know how finicky he can be!

We’ll I’ve got a swatch to knit and felt, yup! I’m going to try to felt our Regular today and see how that works out, I will keep you posted!

And it sounds like I’ll be working on creating those solid colors a bit sooner than I thought . . . . again, I’ll keep you posted!

Have a great Sunday!
