Twisted Fiber Art, Inc.

Yarn:  Kabam.  
Kabam! is a luscious yarn!  The bamboo lends this yarn a lovely soft glow, not shiny, but joyfully luminous!  The superwash merino dyes beautiful, rich colors which are diffused by the bamboo without losing much intensity.  This yarn has little or no stretch, a wonderful silky drape and a sensuously soft hand.  

Originally perceived as a sock yarn, it now has a following for lacey garments and baby gear (as well as socks)!  Socks knit in plain stockinette are very attractive, but this yarn also shows off fancy stitches beautifully.

Angst. Reddish browns and shades of purple combine with piercing blues. The name came from my son who is now a middle schooler. The knit sample is pictured to show in general how the colors interact and move as you knit. The yarn may be different but the size of the stripes will be similar. Keep in mind that each skein is unique and will knit in its own beautiful way.

Skein Design: Organic Stripe. When knit this yarn will stripe organically, blending from one color to another without the abrupt changes and predictable repeats found on machine printed yarns. The stripes vary throughout so shaping will not interfere with the look of your knit garment.
