…. that this week is W Week. (Remember last week was M Week? Malabrigo? Madelinetosh?) That means instead of a regular Monday Update tonight, we’re doing a few Wollmeise updates this week, different days, different times. As usual, we’ll be sure to announce it on Facebook and Twitter and Ravelry when each batch goes up. We just added Twin to the website this afternoon. If you miss one update, there will be another. We also still have several boxes stuck somewhere en route, so if we don’t get those this week, we’ll do another update next week, too. I’ll keep you posted on that.
Of course we’ll have another regular Monday Update next week with more fun things. They’re stacking up in the inventory room and we’re having fun poking through all of the boxes. In the meantime, since it’s W week, I have a wound 950 yd. skein of Wollmeise Lace to give away. I used less than half of the 1700 yd. skein to knit (held double) a Honey Cowl for a friend. Isn’t that a pretty blue purple color? I can’t remember the name. There is one knot in the very middle of the skein. I had divided it into two equal balls to knit double, then re-wound the leftover balls into one large cake. This is perfect yardage for another Honey Cowl held double (or two Honey Cowls!), a pair of light socks, a large shawl, a scarf and mitts, or a number of other things. Just leave a comment below and I’ll draw a name at the end of the week for the winner. I know you’ll make it into something beautiful!
Sheri isitjustme,oristhisdayflyingby??
There are some colours of WM 100% I’m really wanting, so I’m so very glad you’ve got WM this week! I hope I can catch it at the right time.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Super pretty honey cowl! Must.resist.buying.yarn.
Wollmeise is just impossible to resist!
Haven’t made a Honey Cowl yet, but really like them alot……winning some Wollmeise would be really great! Thanks for the having a give-away~
I had a feeling the Wollmeise was coming sooner than later- it just seemed like it had been a while since there had been any.
I am hoping to get some knitting done this week, and hoping to win some lace- especially already ‘caked’ lace, since caking it is half the battle for me!
Yay! So glad I caught the update! 🙂 And I’d like to be in the running for the giveaway…. 🙂
Beautiful cowl, I’d add it to my list, but I think it’s already there! I was so excited to catch the WM update. I haven’t actually had money and caught an update in maybe 2 years.
Yummy! Purple is my favorite color and I haven’t knit with the Wollmeise lace yet. Would be such a treat. And what a cute little bird picture! And yes, the day is flying by, and the weather people are saying this might be the only day this week we have without rain. Let’s hope they’re wrong. 😉
I’ve been dying to try Wollemeise lace! Pick me pick me 😉 (oh, and I might have enticed a bit of purple to my way on the Twin update just now LOL!)
That purple/blue would probably make a good pamuya?
Yay Wollmeise!! I’d love to try the lace 🙂
I had a skein in my cart and it jumped out on the way to checkout. I’ll have to keep watching.
Oooh, Wollmeise!
A Wollmeise virgin here. This year is my first year working with lace yarns and have been enjoying the knitting process of making shawls. I absolutely adore purples. /crosses fingers.
Lovely cowl! What a great color!
Lovely give away. I’d be happy be happy to give it a good home.
Cowls are one of my go-tos for gifts, such nearly-instant gratification! Love the color, yours look fab.
Pick me! Pick me! I have never knit with WM lace, but I would be happy to start.
Yeah! What a great Monday! I have a package on my front steps from TLE and now another one winging its way to me full of lovely W! With more possibilities to come this week! More Yeahs!
Thanks for the chance to get lucky and win some Wollmeise. I’ve never knitted with it, so it would be av treat!
Must. RESIST. Resistance is futile when you have a credit, isn’t it? 🙂
Thanks for the chance to win some Wollmeise . . it looks like a beautiful color.
Oh how I would love to try the Wollmeise lace. I love the sock weight.
It’s great that you are finding your extra WM a new home. Someone is going to be very lucky!
But.. what about the bird? It’s a very cute bird.. what type is it?
Hehe.. I’ll be on the look out for Lapis later in the week 🙂
How kind of you! I just got in on an order of sock yarn….can’t wait to get it!
I love that color!!!!! Please pick me…..just tried to pick up some of the Wollmeise and all of the good colors are gone!
That color is absolutely gorgeous – blue is my favorite color! – and I have been dying to knit a Honey cowl, but paralyzed regarding color/yarn choice. This would totally make the decision for me!!
What a pretty cowl! I’d love this yarn. I’ve used 100% and Twin, but not lace yet!
Oh…I would love to get my hands on some WM lace! Thanks for gifting your leftovers to someone lucky!
Pick me, pick me!!
That is beautiful! And that totally doesn’t count against breaking my self-imposed yarn diet until Camp Loopy!
WM lace would be wonderful. I haven’t knitted with WM- so it would be nice. But then you are nice!
Love WM lace, add my name to the list. Thanks for the give away.
Would love to win this lace to make a honey cowl for myself!
Thanks for the chance!
Beautiful Wollmeise in blues! That’s very pretty colorway for that pattern.
MMM WOLLMEISE WEEK. goodbye, paycheck.
Another W virgin. Someday! I just want to feel it. ,,,…and knit with it.
Nope, its not just you. We figured that the girls only had 3.5 weeks of school left and somehow a long the way my oldest is 5′ 2″ and she isn’t even 12 yet!!
Thank you for this opportunity.
The Wollmeise in your shop disappeared before I knew it was there, so I shall hope to win the giveaway instead.
I’ve finally used my Wollmeise from Camp Loopy. I adored it AND the pattern I used. Total success!!
The color is beautiful!
Yay! I just caught the update. This will be my first time knitting with Wollmeise!
I’ve been dying to try Wollmeise and wouldn’t it be perfect if my first experience was with some that I won from Sheri!!!
Love Wollmeise, so glad you have finally got some in!
That cowl is lovely, and the color wonderful. Thanks for the giveaway.
I haven’t had the opportunity to knit with Wollmeise yet, and am dying to get my hands on some! Love the pretty purple color
I’d love to make another Honey Cowl!
Funny how some days speed up. The more one tries to hold back the time the faster it goes. Must knit faster.
