Fabulous Galler Yarns

 I’m really excited about Galler’s new yarn, Inca Eco.  It’s a beautiful fiber with the same gorgeously soft hand and wonderful texture as Galler’s Organic Cotton, but dyed in and amazing range of colors from soft pastels to really vibrant brights.  A lot of people think cotton is this hard stringy stuff, but Inca Eco has an incredible hand – a real pleasure to knit.  It looks great in seed stitch and similar patterns that play up the fabulous texture.  Here's a swatch with both stitches.

I’ve carried Galler yarns in the shop since 2004 when I first openend Crazy for Ewe.  I fell in love with Peruvian Tweed, and it has become a real favorite with our customers.  I had seen a beautiful wrap in a magazine ad and wanted to duplicate it.  Peruvian Tweed was the obvious choice, so I ordered ten skeins each of three colors and got to work.  The result was our Luxurious Alpaca Stole.  It’s an incredibly simple pattern – just two by two ribbing, but held double and knit on a US 10.5 needle.  It’s an amazing garment, and customers who pick it up in the shop typically buy two skeins of the Peruvian Tweed to make it.  It’s an incredible soft yarn with a generous 600 yards per skein at a really decent price.  What’s not to love!
