Monday evening we all gathered at Hooked for the Mug Tasting event. We all had a great night with lots of laughs and fun sampling and testing out the new variety of yarn that has just arrived at Hooked. Stop in and check out our new yarns!

Cashmere Queen by Schoppel. Join us as we enjoy KALs making the Wayside Lace Cardigan, Reflections Cardigan, and Karin's Cashmere Queen Cowl projects. This is a beautifully soft yarn, available in a variety of colors.

Stout by Cascade which is a bulky yarn. This yarn is interesting and fun. It comes in a hank that changes color as you work with it. The yarn starts with a dark outter layer that gradually changes to a lighter shade on the interior of the skein and works up into a beautiful project. Join us for a CAL making a Chunky Tweed vest

Spuntaneous by Cascade and is a bulky yarn. Warm and soft to the touch, it looks a lot like roving and works up nicely in patterns for bulky yarn. Join us for a KAL making the Undelay Cowl. 

Yaya by Mirasol is another super soft bulky 100% Superwash Merino Wool. Available in a variety of colors.
