Madelinetosh Yarns have a reputation for quality and beauty. A couple of years ago, we were asked by Madelinetosh if we would like to carry their yarns and of course, we were thrilled. We have a just recently added a new shop sample (our first in Madtosh) made from two skeins of their fingering weight yarn and so we want to celebrate!



Until December 15th, please enjoy 20% off all Madelinetosh Yarns. A skein or two of any of our "MadTosh" yarns make a great gift too - if not for you, for a fiber lover in your life. Currently, we are stocking Tosh Merino Light (fingering), Tosh Merino Light with Glitter or Copper (fingering), Tosh Vintage (worsted) and Triple Twist (aran/bulky).


We knit the Emiliana shawl with one skein of Tosh Merino Light and the other Tosh Merino Light with Glitter. (Some of us like a little sparkle at times in our yarn!) We stopped knitting the shawl before we finished all the yarn to make sure it wasn't too big for wearing in a coat.
