We believe every kind of yarn can play a role in telling your creative story and hope that you'll find exactly what you're looking for among our selections. We'll keep adding new bases as we go so be sure to check this page regularly for updates.

HALO

It's well known that we have a deep and abiding love for a pretty halo and we think this luminous blend of kid mohair and silk strikes the perfect balance between fuzzy texture and sheen. Use HALO on its own (held single or double) or in combination with other yarns to add the softest, lightest bloom to your projects.

HAZE

HAZE is the stuff of clouds and dreams. Gossamer soft and light as air, this luxurious blend of Suri Alpaca and silk is a delight to wear against the skin. Just like our HALO base, HAZE can be used on its own (held single or double) or in combination with other yarns to add fluffy texture to your projects. A perfect substitute for those sensitive to mohair.
