Hey kids! I found a new place to buy reasonably priced yarn and I wanted to share with you all. It’s called Hobbii! It’s located in Denmark, but they offer free shipping over a certain amount.
And I know, I know… I literally said at the start of the month that I would knit from stash and not buy anything new, because I do not need any yarn.
But I didn’t actually place the order for the yarn….
I NEEDED these unicorn scissors. Like absolutely needed them!!!! And wasn’t about to pay shipping for just a pair of silly scissors. So, some yarn popped in my cart so I could get FREE shipping.
First was some of their Dolce sock yarn. It’s a gradient yarn with speckles. Technically, you can never have enough sock so I don’t really feel bad about ordering it.
Next up is some fun self-striping sparkle worsted, and some plain solids. These will become colourwork hats for my nieces for Christmas this year.
And because I still needed a few dollars in stuff to get that free shipping, so this Raggi came along for the ride. It’s a Worsted weight sock yarn and I’m happy to have found another source of yarn to make Dad thick socks.

I recently heard of this yarn – a woman on one of the podcasts I watch knit a sweater using it, and she really liked it.
The scissors are PERFECT.

I had recently learned of Hobbii but didn’t know where it was located. Their ads keep popping up on my FB feed. Love the looks of the yarn and the scissors are PERFECT! Thanks for enabling all of us. 🙂
Blessings and hugs,

I have a pair of unicorn scissors like that! I love them. They were goodie bag stash for a Fall Shawl Retreat I put on with Laurinda Reddig (crochet designer). See, now you need to come to a retreat with me, if we ever put one of those on again!
I love the yarn colors in that first set; are you planning to put them together, or are they for 3 pairs of socks?
