NEW HABU KITS DEBUT EXCLUSIVELY AT GREAT BALLS OF YARN!
Over Thanksgiving I went to visit Takako in her showroom up in NYC's Garment District. Oh what a fun time we had at HABU! After exploring some of their most unusal Japanese novelties, our team of yarnistas designed some innovative and easy to knit kits that you will not see anywhere. Take a peek at Our Spanish Moss Shawlette. This pattern is done up in a simple garter stitch and when our customers first saw it, they fell in love with the light airy paper yarn. Our kit comes in two sizes--one for the Shawlette and one for a sensational wrap. Both super cool! Also new for this month is the ITO PONCHITO-pictured to the right. Another super easy garter stitch knit. Very unusal...and comes in navy, wine, black, white and olive colorways. Inspiring!
