This Saturday is Small Business Saturday, though we would like to think this holiday season should be shop small, and local businesses. In Ontario, two large regions went back to lockdown, and across Canada many others are following suit. With this many small shops are closing their doors, however many have updated their websites since the beginning of COVID. So, you may not be able to head in store, however there are many other options to supporting small businesses.
If you are looking for some giftable products, visit our last blog post which covers the best gifts to shop from your LYS.
With that, this month we have a collector colour in both KPPPM and Sparkle. Koigu Sparkle is the same weight as Koigu KPPPM, however it has a strip of Lyrex, which gives a beautifully subtle sparkle in the yarn.
Sparkle Collector
This months sparkle collector is inspired by elements. Most of our original colourways were inspired by the farm, and the elements are an import part of that. Whether you interpret it as the whether elements, or in a more witchy way, we love this months colour.

KPPPM Collector
This months KPPPM Collector Colour is inspired by Foraging. Living in the country, one of our favourite activities is venturing into the woods with the dogs, and coming out with all sorts of fun things. As we move into the snowy season, we’re not foraging for the same things we did in the summer, however we will be heading to the bush for some fresh brush for the season.
