A BERROCO DAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

We are HUGE Berroco fans at WoolWinders. We learned to knit sweaters using their wonderfully written patterns and have always appreciated their reasonably priced yarns. Yesterday in the midst of the Debbie Bliss presentation, Walter, our new UPS Guy (more about that later) arrived with half of our Fall Berroco order. Needless to say, the sight of twenty women scared the hell out of him and he left all the boxes outside. We rolled them in when Debbie was through and unpacked them today.

What bounty! We received gorgeous colors of their ribbon yarn, Zen Colors, eight colors of our Fall favorite Softwist, Chinchilla both worsted AND Bulky, and Hip Hop, a quick 2 to the inch thick and thin feltable wool. In addition, we loaded up on novelties Quest, Jewel FX, and Optik. If you have not checked out Berroco's website, do so by going to www.Berroco.com. They have a fabulous section called Scarf Central with a TON of patterns. Finally, we received an ultra soft worsted weight new offering Lullaby which is just perfect for, you guessed it, kids things.
