I wanted to quickly show you the new yarn Husk from Tivoli although I’m not sure the photo above does it any justice.
I’m not a massive fan of novelty yarns myself preferring the look of a good stitch pattern however, I’m a little smitten especially with the little bolero that you can knit in it (see the bottom pic). I cast on the scarf last night and will have it knitted and hanging in the shop to squidge for next week.
Husk knits on 6mm needles and the hat and scarf pattern comes free with each purchase of the yarn. It takes 1 ball to knit the hat or the scarf and the yarn retails at €6.99 a ball so it’s great for a gift.
This bolero pattern is also available in the Woman’s Way Magazine.
Must go as we have a super busy day full of classes in the shop today.
Happy Knitting!
Confessions of a Fibre Strumpet 
[…] completely sold out EVERYWHERE 😦 Undeterred, I decided to try knitting the design up using Tivoli Husk as a substitute instead and I think you’ll agree he’s turned out […]
Where can I get this yarn. I have one, but I would like one more?
Hi Rachael, I’m not sure if it’s being made still. Have you searched online? I’m happy to get in touch with my old rep to see if he can track some down for you. Which shade is it and how many balls are you after?
That would be great! Just one ball and the light grey shown above.
