New Yarn at Nine Rubies!

A delivery of Luxury Sock & Shawl (50% merino, 50% silk, fingering weight, 330 yards per skein) has been made to Nine Rubies. You will find:

2 skeins of Blackberry Jam
1 skein of Azul Vivo, a new brilliant blue that I forgot to photograph because I'm lame
1 skein of Jewel Box
3 skeins of Waves

The Jewel Box in the Luxury comes out much lighter than in the 100% merino, which is true of all colorways.

The yarn retails at $26 per skein. Contact Nine Rubies for mail order.

Coming soon to Nine Rubies -

Cashmere DK in Blackberry Jam and Waves
Pearly Twist Sock Yarn, based on Louet Gems, in Jewel Box and Blackberry Jam
Light Creme de Soie, a DK-weight 100% silk, in Azul Vivo and Waves
Creme de Soie in Blackberry Jam

And... another yarn shop that will carry Baywood Yarns!

Sunset Scale Socks - Free Pattern!



These socks were designed by The Remarkable Cow for the Luxury Sock & Shawl yarn. The pattern for Sunset Scales Socks is free!

Nine Rubies is currently sold out of the Summer Sunset colorway, but they have other colorways of the Luxury Sock available. More sock yarn will be delivered in about two weeks, including a couple more skeins of Summer Sunset!

Thanks, Mel, for such a lovely pattern.

Thank you Stitches West purchasers!

The sales at Stitches West went pretty well - thanks to all of you who bought some yarn to support my little business. I enjoyed talking with many wonderful knitters who visited the booth.

Nine Rubies will have all remaining stock, as usual. If you want to order, you can give them a ring.

If you have been using Baywood Yarns for any of your projects and would like to share, let me know and I'll link you from this site. I'm also thrilled to post photos of your finished objects!
