New Yarn

Ok, this is already a long post with lots of photos... We got a LOT of yarn this month (I don't know what we were thinking, we don't have room for it!) I won't get into a lot of editorial just because there is so much to show you, but hopefully I'll get to post more about them later. OR if you have any questions about them, leave them in the comments and I'll post replies!

Here we go....
