    Vickie, you’ve MADE MY DAY with yarn named after Ani! Great knitters think alike 🙂

    Love that Tori colorway! I can’t wait to see themin Love (since I can’t knit with Rock because of the wool). 🙂

    The new yarn colors look really cool. I just got my web order for Craft, Rock, and Love. I do have a quick ? about the sense and sensible-knitty scarf. Could I leave enough yarn at the provisional cast-on to complete the second ruffle? If so, how much would you recommend. I generally knit at about the recommended gauge on the recommended needles. Thanks!

    Very excited about the Tori! This will match a ribbon yarn I have with all of those colors and I have not had much success finding something to match in the fiber and weight! You Rock Ms H!

    Love the colors!!! I’m drooling all over myself just looking at Tori. Guess it’s better that I get it out now, though, rather than all over the bunches of skeins that I will inevitably buy. Mmmm….Tori…drool….

    I adore the new colors, especially Ani (Difranco?) and Matthew (sweet?). I can’t wait to see them in person.

    I love the new variegated colors – especially Ani and Tori. I can’t wait until these are available!

    OMG, there was a problem with Blogger I guess, so I wasn’t getting any comments sent to me. I totally thought y’all must’ve hated the colourways. Thanks, Theresa, for e-mailing Jenny to alert us of the problem!

    YAY, you like the variegateds, yay!

    Craftyone–I’m not sure, since SWTC already has a brand new sock yarn called, Tofutsies.

    Bellakarma–Yup, you got it!

    xo, Vic
