IT'S DYEING TIME!!!!
Later this month I will be doing my BIG SUMMER YARN ORDER and DYEING. I most likely won't do it again until January or so and prices will have gone up (again) by then.
My in-stock yarn is here:
http://community.livejournal.com/yarny_bits/199235.html
You can order from it at any time.
If you want something that isn't currently in-stock, I will need your order and payment by July 10th. I will start dyeing as the yarn comes in, between 5 days and 2 weeks, depending on the yarn. I hope to have everyone get their yarn by Mid-August at the latest.
To be clear - it doesn't matter what year a colourway is listed as. As long as it's not on the short list of "not available" you can order any listed colourway.
Price List for yarns I will be doing behind the cut.
PLEASE NOTE: The SIZE of some skeins has changed.
ADDITIONALLY - Order 10 or more skeins and choose between free (USA) shipping and a FREE SKEIN.
General Info:
Yarn is kettle-dyed or hand-painted in small batches so all your projects will be unique! I use dyes that are safe for babies and sensitive skin. All yarn is colourfast and washable.
General Prices:
I MUCH prefer paypal to maialaia @ yahoo .com but will take money orders in certain circumstances. Please email or post if you need to send a MO.
I HATE to raise my prices, but the cost of wool has literally doubled in the last year. At my 2007 prices I was actually loosing money with every order. I'm not doubling my prices, but I am raising them 1$/skein. As of April 1st 2009, prices are as follows:
SUPERWASH SOCK YARN
One Skein = 8 ounces/220 grams, about 850 yards
75% wool, 25% nylon, machine washable!
(May dye up DARKER than pictured colourways)
One skein = $36
Two to Ten skeins = $35 each
Ten or more skeins = $34 each
(Yes, it looks crazy expensive, but the skeins are DOUBLE the weight of any of my other yarns. You can get 2-3 pairs of adult socks out of one skein.)
WORSTEDS:
I'm not planning on doing Alpaca, Cotton or Peace Fleece, but I will if there is significant interest.
Merino single-ply OR 3-ply:
This is the SAME YARN that Purewool and Malabrigo sell.
One Skein = 100grams/3.85 ounces, 215-220 yards
Gauge: Worsted - 18 stitches & 25 rows per 4 inches on size 8 needles.
One skein = $17
Two to Ten skeins = $16 each
Ten or more skeins = $15 each
Merino Boucle:
This is the SAME YARN that Purewool and Malabrigo sell.
One Skein = 100grams/3.85 ounces, 215-218 yards
Gauge: Worsted - 16 stitches & 24 rows per 4 inches on size 9 needles.
One skein = $17
Two to Ten skeins = $16 each
Ten or more skeins = $15 each
4-ply Ardara (Irish) Wool
light worsted
One Skein = 220grams/8 ounces, appx 500yards
One skein = $30
Two to Ten skeins = $28
Ten or over = $16
SKEIN SIZE HAS CHANGED AS OF 06-01-09 - One skein is now 220grams/8ounces instead of 110/4.
MIKADO:
(94% with a 6% nylon thread running through it to create a lucious NUBBLY thick/thin twist.)
One Skein = 4 ounces, 70 yards
One or Two skeins: $16 each
Three or more skeins: $15 each
ALL COLOURWAYS CAN BE FOUND HERE:
http://community.livejournal.com/yarny_bits/11418.html
MINIMUM ORDER PER COLOURWAY is two skeins. If you just want one and you can find someone else who wants one, that's fine. This is not per yarn-type, it's just per colourway.

CANADIANS PLEASE NOTE: Shipping to Canada is very inconsistent. Sometimes things take 3 days, sometimes 8 weeks. I wish I could tell you why, but I don't know.
INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS (Including Canadians): When I ship I will give you a CUSTOMS NUMBER. This is NOT a tracking or delivery confirmation number, it will only tell you if the parcel has cleared customs in your country. If you want tracking & delivery confirmation it will cost extra (between $12 and $45 depending on the country.)
