Just Can't Get Enough Yarn!!


Hey everybody! It’s another week.....time to share some new goodies! This time I get to share with you 5 new yarns that came in! Yaaay for new yarn! Just like you, we just can’t get enough ;)

I’ll start with 2 new yarns by Filatura Di Crosa. The first one is a new baby yarn called “Zarina”. Zarina is a fingering weight 100% extra-fine, superwash merino wool. It’s so squishy-soft and comes in fun stripey colors....


Cute colors aren’t they?! I think we might have a few more colors coming that are backordered...I will keep you posted. This yarn would be great for cute little hat and booties, or how ‘bout an adorable little sweater...


and there ya go! Cute little newborn size! It’s almost done! Only 2 balls....pattern free with purchase :)

This next yarn has been just flying off the shelf since I put it out Tuesday! I’m glad I have some left to share with you! It’s called “Tempo”. This fun ‘n fancy yarn is a cotton, acrylic, polyamide blend that has a really different look and texture...


More colors are coming! In fact....we have already ordered more because of it’s quick popularity! This fun, mulitcolored, texurey yarn has been flying off the shelf partly because of the awesome scarf pattern that comes with it!! Check out how cool this looks.....



Isn’t that so fun and different?! I LOVE this!! This is the scarf version made from 2 balls of Tempo, 3 balls will make more of a shawl width. This scarf is deceptivley simple.....just all knit, knit, knit in the round! At the end when you bind off, some stitches are simply dropped off the needle and pulled all the way down to make those long spaces. The tube is then cut open (ahhhh don’t freak out!!) to make the scarf, then you just braid the fringe! That’s it! Pattern comes free with purchase. 

This next little pretty is by Stacey Charles, it’s called “Crystal”. Crystal is a very fine cotton/polyester metallic yarn with tiny, tiny little sequins stuck right in! It’s pretty little sequins catch the light....this yarn just shines and sparkles! It begs to be worn like jewlery! 


So, so pretty! Joan is making this cute little keyhole scarf out of just one ball....



I want one! It’s a perfect little something to wear out or jazz up any outfit!! Pattern also free with purchase ;)

We have a beautiful new yarn by Colinette too! Actually, we have had it wayyy in the past. We have decided we need it back! It’s called “Zanziba”. One of the reasons we have decided to bring it back is it’s unique look and texure....


We really don’t have anything else like it....plus it’s beautifully hand-painted! Joan ordered it in colors to match with Colinette’s “Isis”. We took the 2 gorgeous yarns and put them together to make this scarf .....




Isn’t that fab!? One strand of each held together (Zanziba & Isis) on size 17’s! Super fast! We have decided to offer them as a kit with a free pattern and a great deal! Usually these yarns individually cost $23 each, but if you buy them together in this scarf kit you will get the special kit price of $42.95! Aren’t we just so nice?! Here are some colorways we put together for the Zanziba/Isis Scarf Kit.....


Very pretty! Feel free to put your own 2 colors of Zanziba and Isis together if you wish....we encourage you to be unique ;) 

Swan’s Island has some new colors of their fingering weight organic wool! These new colors are a special edition and will only be seen here at Monarch once...


These are naturally dyed and the wool is all organic! Very soft and perfect from all types of projects from socks and gloves to scarves and shawls! Come feast your eyes and get your eager little hands on some before these colors are gone forever!!

Ok yarn pals! Those are the new yarns of the week! Hope you are all excited about all the new goodies and come racing in!! Have a great, sunny weekend! :D
