It’s been another busy week here at Stash, with more new yarns and patterns arriving for the coming Autumn/Winter 2013/2014 Season.
So, what’s new?
As it has been a bit of a baby themed week following the arrival of Prince George, I thought I’d start with the latest book of adorable patterns for the miniature people in your life, the new Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino Book 5:
Why not make one of these sweet patterns for your little Prince or Princess?
All the patterns use either Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino or Debbie Bliss Eco Baby (which are interchangeable) and with all the different colours available you can really make these designs your own. There are patterns for babies and children up to five years so you can come back to these great designs for years to come.
Here are some of our favourites:
There’s this lovely rosebud patterned cardi and matching bear:
…….. a cute little two colour raglan sweater:
…… a very pretty trellis stitch jacket:
…… a practical top for boys:
… and a fairisle band top for girls:
There are plenty more fabulous designs in this book, more than we’ve got room for here, but you can browse pictures of all fifteen of them on our website here.
We’ve just taken delivery of two lovely new yarns from Mirasol, both of which reference the recent trend for ombre style knits.
Paqu Pura is a beautifully soft sportweight (between a double knit and a 4ply) 100% Alpaca yarn with long, sophisticated colour changes and with 300m/per 100g skein it goes a long way!
We’ve got some lovely single patterns in this yarn by Claudia Wersing:
From stylish sweaters:
To cosy accessories:
As well as a textured slipover for men:
The second new Mirasol yarn this season is Sami:
Sami is a DK weight 100% Wool yarn made from two plies of shaded yarn spun together to create a slightly marled shaded effect.
There are some lovely single patterns in this yarn too that really make the most of the eye-catching shading in the yarn.
From this snuggly collared tunic:
To this intriguing cardigan:
…. and this mitred cardigan that makes the stripes in the yarn change direction:
We’ve also just taken delivery of some great new knitting bags and needle holders!
With their cute button print these are sure to brighten your day!
We’ve got Button Boutique Yarn Bags (no more balls of yarn rolling all over the floor!):
Button Boutique Needle Holders to keep all your needles in their rightful place:
….and Button Boutique Knitting Bags in various sizes to suit each and every work-in-progress (if you’re anything like me you’ll have quite a few):
Last but not least there are some amazing bargains to be had in our clearance sale – you can save up to a third on discontinued yarns and colours!
There’s lots to choose from, and new additions this week include:
Beautifully soft Debbie Bliss Paloma in 4 gorgeous shades…..
Some lovely shades in Debbie Bliss Donegal Luxury Tweed Aran (this is just a small selection, there are more colours on the website):
For fans of Noro yarns, we’ve got two shades of Kureyon, #220 (on the left) and #264 (on the right):
… and three shades of Noro Silk Garden (from left to right: shades #299, #304, #314):
We’ve also got some lovely Mirasol yarns in the sale, four shades of Ushya (a super chunky 100% wool):

Last but not least, bringing us back to the Royal Baby theme, we’ve got some Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino in the sale too in selected colours (just a selection shown here, but lots more on our website), but hurry these are going fast!
We’ve also added our remaining stock of some discontinued colours in Rowan yarns to the sale – take a look at them here – but stocks are very limited so don’t wait too long!
Happy Knitting!
