It is my Fourth Year as a blogger!

I can hardly believe how the time here has gone flying by.  I have grown so much! And made so many online friends.

I have never had a giveaway here, but since I visited the Hobby X Expo last month, and got such nice goodies and yarns, I want to share these with you.

So four years means four shared gifts.

I have different types of yarns, and they are all locally from South Africa, except for the Katia Alpaca, which is important to SA.  I really want to share some of the local South African goodness, and then hear your opinion on these yarns, and how they compare to yarns from your part of the world.  These local yarns are called “One of a kind yarns”.

One of a Kind Yarns Organic Cotton

Organic Cotton in Double Knit.  

This is a super soft 100% natural yarn,a wonderful viscose/organic cotton blend super light and absorbent with both the viscose and organic cottons positive qualities its wonderful for all your knitting and crochet projects.

Organic Cotton is very light and soft and has a unique look to it,in both knitting and crochet its super for garments,decor and blankets because of the anti allergen factor.

One of a Kind Yarns Silky Bamboo Lace

Silky Bamboo in Lace Weight

This is a super soft 100%BAMBOO with a high sheen,its wonderful for all your knitting and crochet projects. Bamsi T has a lovely drape in both knitting and crochet its super for garments,decor and the ultimate for babywear and blankets because of the anti allergen factor. Bamsi T looks great on its own,but it could be used as a double strand and the results are amazing.

One of a Kind Yarns Organic Cotton

Organic Cotton 4 Ply

This is a super soft 100%Organic Cotton,its wonderful for all your knitting and crochet projects.
Organic Cotton is very light and soft and has a unique look to it,in both knitting and crochet its super for garments,decor and blankets because of the anti allergen factor.
