Itsy Bitsy Cotton by King Cole Yarn & Pattern Supplier now in stock.

25gram balls of 100% cotton DK in 40 shades.
This yarn is ideal for amigurumi, intarsia knitting and for those times only a itsy bit is needed. 2 new crochet amigurumi books also in stock to accompany the yarn

This is something new for us, I’ve been asked by a couple of companies to take in this type of yarn previously but have always said no because of the price but I think these are good value at only 99p.
