PSST! Several lovely things are coming to the store this Friday, but the big one is the ‘Longbeach’ colour way and pattern, available from Friday April 1st to Sunday April 3rd.

One of the projects I’ve been working on behind the scenes is a set of colourways themed after natural stones. I visited the Geologic Gallery on Queen West here in Toronto, picked out a few I liked and got dyeing. The first in the series, launching this Friday, is ‘Jade’.

Jade is inspired by the jade stone, of course. I don’t go in for stone meaning, but according to the wisdom of the internet, Jade is used to attract money and love, and also has protective and healing qualities. It’s also inspired by my favourite colours of this fashion season :)

Goodies in my mood board from top left: Corkia Gown By Ted Baker, Jade stones, Sydney Crossbody Bag By Fossil, middle: My new Jade yarn! Bottom: Decouart iPhone case, Normandy Blouse by Wilfred, and Half Stone Drop Ear Jackets By Fossil.

Jade is soft and lovely–neutral but not–and explores blues and greens while still feeling like a warm colour. It will be a permanent addition to my signature colour line, and available on a dye-to-order basis, on any of our regular yarn bases.

There are two more stone-based colours launching this Friday for your shopping pleasure, stay tuned!

The yarn from The Blue Brick is beautiful quality and unlike any other I've worked with. Each skein is hand painted and the colours are spectacular! Customer service is always excellent.
Always an amazing service and top quality product. The yarn is exquisit! Customer service is always quick and the people I deal with are always super nice. I only have the nicest things to say about this shop :)
The Blue Brick continues to be one of my go-to brands of yarn. I have been a fiber artist all my life and when I found Shireen’s products, I met my soul yarn! Each strand has been meticulously designed and crafted. You can see the care, attention, and love that is in each skein or cake!
Beautiful Lucious yarn.
Love the yarn!! It’s gorgeous!!
