Alrighty, ladies and gentleknitters, I finally have swatches of the new LOVE and all of the VEGAS colors. Sit back, and watch the magic. 😉
Summer (‘o7) of Love
Andrew & Sam (cool, sage green)
Clarence & Alabama (hot pink–ohhhh yeah!)
Miles & Maya(deliciously deep wine)
Viva Las Vegas!
Click here to see swatches. Please note, “Excess” has a dark purple metallic thread running through it that’s not visible in the photograph. The pictures don’t do this yarn justice. Hope you like them as much as I do!
And with that, I’m off to buy supplies for my next KIWI Magazine.
Totally Love it! I need more yarn like I need…Oh wait, I do.
BTW – do you happen to know what stores in MN are carrying your goods?!
I have one petal left for my Rosie Posie Zippy Bag and I will finish it even if it kills me. For some reason I am challenged when it comes to crochet. Whatever?! I will be sending you a pic of the finished bag however because it is fantastic!
Oh – there’s my horn! Gotta Go!

Love the sage green. Great colors. Have fun in Vancouver.
g3–I know for sure they carry it at Crafty Planet. Also, if you click on the yarn page on my site, there’s a list of retailers. I’m waiting to hear back from the yarn co though, for updates.

I wanted to let you know that I received my Sept 2007 Creative Knitting and i read your interview. Great job! I felt like I was watching Knitty Gritty. Your personality came out just like it does on TV! Keep up the good work! Sarah
Oh my goodness, my wallet loves the colors, and it demands that I buy all 🙂 Love Knitty Gritty, your blog, and your yarn! I met you when you came to Chicago! (I skipped school…shh don’t tell my family my “hobby” is getting out of control. Pretty soon they’ll excpect presents, and I’m not up to that level…yet 🙂 )
I making the Rosie Posie Zippy Bag right now, and it’s a lot of fun!
Oh Vickie, the moment I read “Colors” I immediately started rapping in my best Ice-T impersonation! Love the Clarence and Alabama yarn! I LOVE True Romance!
We are so excited that our friend and YarnYAY! Design Manager, @juliamadill's Overprint Bag design was published in the Spring '23 issue of @pompommag !
We love the graphic look, and environmentally conscious purpose of this crochet tote so much, that we've put together two colorful, Montoya Merino Light kits to celebrate!

The YarnYAY! 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩 𝘉𝘰𝘹'𝘴 featured shade of 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘰𝘺𝘢 𝘔𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘰 𝘓𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 (Desert Jasper), feels right at home with this holiday, so 𝘄𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗮 𝗯𝗼𝘅 𝘁𝗼 𝗧𝗪𝗢 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀! See below for details.
Side note (that likely no one by me will care about): Giving away hanks on St Patrick's Day, of my Montoya Merino yarn feels appropriate as my dad used to always say that my brother and I were Spirish (Spanish + Irish). Thank you for listening.

Wish you were attending the Knit & Crochet show in Manchester… 🙁
Nichole–After the last book tour I’m kind of traveled out and am trying to stick closer to home, except when I have to shoot. Have fun, though!
Sarah–This is awful but, I don’t remember doing even remember doing that interview. I’m sure I will once I see it, though. Thanks for the heads up!
