A word from Ruth
Hi FolksRARE YARNS DIRECTION As a small business wholesaling a niche market product, we wish to support our retailers by referring Rare Yarn lovers to our stockists. The focus of the web site will be changing over the next few months to a wholesaler/retailer support site with links to those retailers who sell on line and contact details for all of our stockists. We have a number of loyal retailers in New Zealand and Australia and one stockist in Devon, UK. We encourage you to contact them directly. The prices of our products will be pretty much the same everywhere. If you are unable to go to your nearest store they will be happy to send to you. If you live outside of these countries please don’t hesitate to contact us directly. For retailers interested in stocking Rare Yarns please email me. To locate the Rare Yarns Retailer nearest to you they are listed in the drop down menu under SHOP on the Home page of this web site. NEW YARNS There are three new colours across the Essentials Range. These are wonderful vibrant colours – Cerise, Turquoise and Lapis. These come in 8ply, boucle (10 to 12ply) and brushed (12ply). These are all now 80% alpaca and 20% merino and round out our colour palette. 2009 NEW YARNS This season we have produced a new Range called Boucle Pure in Turquoise, Sapphire, Jade in the cool colours and in Raspberry, Cherry and Grape in the warms. NEW PATTERNS We are putting a lot of energy into pattern development have a range of new patterns. These are single patterns in full colour and on a stiff card. In 2007 we produced 5 new patterns and in 2009 we have released 3 new patterns with 4 more in the production stages . With the change in focus these will be only available through our retailers. We are a small business and are prioritizing our energies – we need our time to spend on pattern and yarn development. See featured photo of our new Cruiser Sweater RY2009-9, the polo version knitted in Raspberry astrakhan and the crew neck version Humus Boucle. A fabulous sweater to cosy up in for those winter months. For any issues or enquires that we haven’t addressed please contact me through my email ruth@rareyarns.co.nz or through the shop website www.cruellas.co.nz Kind wish Ruth
