Willow Yarns Coastal yarn review from Jessie At Home

Willow Yarns Coastal – Nature in ball of yarn!

I’m rather smitten with the newest yarn from Willow Yarns: Coastal. This is what Willow Yarns has to say about it:

[pullquote width=”700″ float=”center”]Crafted from the same butter-soft cotton as Willow Meadow, Willow Coastal brings new flare to your favorite cotton yarn. Colors move from one to the next, in colorways inspired by mountains, deserts, rivers, and forests, leaving you to relax and enjoy your stitching.

Plymouth Yarn Anne yarn review from Jessie At Home

Plymouth Yarn: Anne – soft and bright!

This winter I visited Plymouth Yarn’s booth at TNNA and was lucky enough to go home with 2 skeins of one of their new yarns: Anne. When I was looking through the booth, Anne just really called to me.

Knitter's Pride product review from Jessie At Home

Knitter’s Pride – Hooks and Needles for all!

Knitter’s Pride has a wide selection of knitting needles and crochet hooks of all styles and sizes. If you need it, they have it, and they most likely have several options for it! Knitter’s Pride is one of our generous sponsors for Yarn and Wine 2016. One of their contributions is 30 sets of various knitting needles to use at the tasting tables. This means over the last few months I’ve been able to try out even more of their needles then I had in the past.
