Knitch has Alchemy yarns on sale!  Including Wabi-Sabi, which is a unbelieveable chunky silk/wool blend (mostly silk):



It is so difficult to find good yarns in this weight and texture for mixing into multi-yarn projects where you want bulky yarns, like pillows and throws.  They have quite a few colors still available, both the solid and the multi colors (the multis are in a different section than the solids, so you will need to look for them).  I would buy up most of their stock if I could, but I had to settle for just a few skeins.

Another discovery that I made on Ravelry: patterns by LynnH of ColorJoy!  I just love these footies:


and plan to make some out of these wonderful new Colinette Jitterbug colors:

LynnH also hosts a ColorJoy! group on Ravelry.
