Shipping charges & sneak peek soon

I've updated my shipping charges on Etsy. I've finished proofing pictures of Passion (merino/tencel), Phantasm 2 (wensleydale), The Perfect Storm (wensleydale) and Aqua Velvet (superwash merino). I'll post pictures and specs of the yarns as soon as I'm done watermarking them. Athelas will be added to Etsy soon. Hopefully late tonight or tomorrow.

Athelas is spun from superwash merino batt blended with angelina/sparkles/glitz and sari silk. This batt was blended by Josette of Enchanted Knoll Farm. It was triple carded and the yarn is wonderfully soft. The angelina/sparkles/glitz and sari silk is not itchy nor scratchy.

A note about Sari: when you zoom/enlarge the pictures on Etsy, you can see all the sari silk and glitz/angelina sticking about and you may think that this yarn is scratchy/itchy but it's not. I think it's because the batt was triple carded. The yarn is very, very soft.
