Haikus for HiKoo - and Save 20%!

HiKoo's Rylie in Periwinkle

Haiku is a traditional Japanese poem in three lines.  HiKoo is a Skacel line of high quality yarns at affordable prices.  So now a haiku about HiKoo . . . .

Knitting needles fly
Yummy yarn, soft and lofty
HiKoo you need to buy!

Anyone willing to read that blatant commercial haiku deserves a reward.  So we've put all of our HiKoo yarn on sale at 20% off through January 31st!  That's 19 great brands!  So what yarn should you choose?  Here are some of my favorites: 

• The classic workhorse Simplicity is a hardy, washable light weight superwash wool available in over 50 vibrant solid colors.  Great for daily use items like afghans and children's wear!  Need more jazz?  Try Simplicity Multi for a multi-color look, or Simplicity Metallic for a dazzling bit of bling.   

• Another great standard, Simpliworsted is a buttery soft superwash merino wool great for all of your worsted weight projects, in over 50 dynamic solid colors.  Solid colors not your style?  Add a twist of color with Simpliworsted Marl, knit bands of color with Simpliworsted Multi, or funk it up with Simpliworsted Metallic.

• Simplinatural is

  HiKoo's new luxury yarn!  Simplinatural is a perfectly soft blend of wool, baby alpaca and silk to add some extravagance to your worsted weight projects.  Note that Simplinatural must be hand washed, so for machine washable projects stick with the classic Simpliworsted. 

• Rylie screams splendor!  Another new luxury yarn, Rylie is a natural wonder as a sport weight blending of soft baby alpaca, silk and linen in ten gorgeous colors.

• Looking for a sock weight yarn, but don't like wool?  Try CoBaSi, a blend of cotton, bamboo and silk with a generous amount of elastic.  CoBaSi was such a hit that HiKoo also created CoBaSi Plus, the same great blend in a worsted weight yarn.  CoBaSi  and CoBaSi Plus are soft, wool-free, and machine washable! (Looking for a project for your CoBaSi yarn?  There is still time to join Michelle Hunter's January Knit-A-Long).

• Knit like an animal!  Or just knit an animal.  Caribou's soft, feathery construction is great for faux fur and fuzzy toys.  Toy sheep look great with Woolie Bullie, a sheepy-looking boucle yarn.

So should I quit knitting and pattern writing to become a poet full-time?  . . . No, I didn't think so either. 

Happy Knitting! . . . . Amy
