Knit Pro Zing range are my favourites at the moment and their crochet hooks appeal to me in the same way. Single ended in aluminium with each size a different colour. They have silver ends and tips making them smooth to use on any yarn and any colour easy to see. They have the added advantage as far as everyone at The Lace Knittery HQ is concerned…the bright colours make them easy to see when a hook has disappeared down the sofa cushion!
A simply stunning yarn from Krea Deluxe but I may be biased because I love lace yarns, natural fibres and soft, restful colours. This yarn ticks all those boxes and can be used on it’s own or with another. It works well with the Krea wool as well as with silk or other natural yarns but does look and feel stunning on it’s own. I am in love and want to snaffle it all.
Each ball is 20g/240m. 45% silk, 33% mohair, 22% baby alpaca.
Handwash and do not tumble dry.
A versatile yarn from Kremke Soul Wool. It is spun in Italy from 47% viscose, 41% polyester and 12% metal. Each spool is a single ply and lace weight. It mixes well with other fibres when knitting, crocheting, weaving and plying on a spinning wheel as well as being used as a thread for all kinds of sewing and mixed media. It is incredibly soft and does not shed…yay!
Each spool is 25g/560m.
A beautiful mulesing free merino from Kremke Soul wool. It is lace weight 30/2 with 750m on each spool. One would be enough to knit a cobweb scarf but the range of colours work really well when combining and working graduated colour work. They can be used together, work extremely well with the Kremke Stellaris and also with any other yarn.
Each spool is 50g/750m. Washable at 30 degrees.
If used on it’s own 1.5-2mm needle or hook and 40stitches x 50 rows for a standard 10cm/4inch gauge square.
