New shipment of yarn
I just received my new shipment of yarn today.
This is 5 kilo's of Imported Organic Peruvian Cotton.
The Non-GMO and Hypoallergenic Cotton was hand harvested by the local farmers to insure its quality.
First the yarn will be pre-washed to allow for shrinkage. Then warped up on the floor loom to make some baby items and maybe weave a large throw. Maybe just in time for this years holiday season's market.
