Coming Soon - Patons Jet

Due to popular demand, we are adding Patons Jet to our range.

Patons Jet is a blend of 30% alpaca 70% wool, making it lovely and soft to handle, and is available in 50g (74m) balls.

As a 12ply yarn Patons Jet is great for fast results, and is knitted at a tension of 16.5sts and 22 rows to 10cm using 5.5mm needles.

We will be stocking Jet in a range of modern shades, from neutrals to more lively shades.

Patons Jet will reach our warehouse and be available for purchase in early July.


To complement this wonderful new yarn, 'Learn to Crochet': Patons Book 1257 will also be added to our product range early next month. 'Learn to Crochet' features 20 simple yet stylish and practical crochet projects for Patons Jet and Inca yarn, as well as terrific step-by-step instructions and large diagrams for those new to the craft. Although promoted as a 'how-to' guide, the patterns will be warmly welcomed by those more experienced at the art of crochet, as it has been difficult in the past for lovers of the craft to find comprehensive crochet pattern collections. 'Learn to Crochet': Patons Book 1257 will retail for $15.50. We will feature pictures of the patterns both here and on our Knitting Yarns by Mail and Stokesay Mohair Farm websites once they become available.
