Phoenix Yarn Cashmere Laceweight Giveaway!


Phoenix Yarn is formerly Jags Funky Fibers! Jags needed a new look and a new name after her hiatus earlier this year. I think the name suits her new shop beautifully! How appropriate that like a phoenix, she resurrects old sweaters into beautiful yarns!

I have been quite pleased with purchases made from Phoenix Yarn in the past- So pleased, that I have been "saving" this seafoam colored cashmere for quite some time! I have it earmarked for something from "knitted lace of Estonia" it's that wonderful!

We're giving away this fuchsia colored cashmere lace today! Just visit Phoenix Yarn, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below! We'll be drawing for a winner later this week, so please take a moment and facebook and twitter about it for extra entries!

    I just love the IDEA of her shop. I just bought some gorgeous cashemere from her and can't wait to get it. I don't know where she find so much fine wool sweaters to unravel and how she has the patience to unravel them but I love that she is giving a new life to some old knits.

    I like the pansy linen/cotton lace. And with 4 skeins at 250yd/skein, there's enough for a nice summery wrap - for less than $30!

    I love the amethyst cotton fingering weight yarn. I have some other cotton yarns that I plan to make a sweater for my daughter out of - not enough of any one color so I figured I'd just do stripes or something. That yarn might just fit right in.

    I really liked the white chocolate 100% cashmere lace yarn, and the ambrosia fingering weight yarn. I am also very interested in the sweater unraveling service. I have a couple of sweaters that would give me much more joy as yarn than they do as items to wear...
