Good morning, and happy Friday to you. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving yesterday!
Black Friday/Cyber Monday Sale
As I mentioned last week, I’m having a big Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale this weekend. That means you can take 20% off almost everything in my shop using the coupon code THANKFUL20, and it will be good for all my…

The coupon code is good for pretty much everything in my shop except my clubs, gift cards, and dyed-to-order yarn.
Help Spread the Word
I would be grateful if you could spread the word among your yarn- and fiber-loving friends. If a friend of yours puts your first and last name in the Note to Seller at checkout during the sale, I will give YOU a $5 gift card to my shop as my thank you. The limit is 10 friends or a $50 gift card. Thanks in advance for helping out a small business!
Be sure to include both my website (www.purplelambfiberarts.com) and the coupon code (THANKFUL20) if you let your friends know about the sale.
I’ll be emailing those gift cards in the week after the sale.
What’s New in the Shop
Since we spoke last week, I’ve dyed up more infinity scarves. I think this one, Smitten, is my favorite.
There are lots of hand-dyed silk scarves to choose from, and they are all included in the sale!
I have also made some mini-skein sets. Each set is made of Splendid Sock and contains 5 colorways. Each mini skein is a 20 gram mini with 92 yards. Here one of the mini-skein sets:
The name is sort of silly, but it’s the first thing that popped into my head. The colorways in the set are Call Me Ishmael, Copper Roof, The Hands of the King, Galadriel’s Gift, and Annunciation Blue. This is one of a few colorways combos I have in the shop now. You can find all the mini-skein sets right here.
I also made some sock sets for the first time. Sock sets have a main sock-weight skein plus a 20 gram mini skein to use for the toes, heels, and cuffs. I used Cashmere Sock and Sock Perfection for the main skeins. The mini skeins are all Splendid Sock, which is made of 75% superwash merino and 25% nylon.
Here is one of my favorites:
The common method is to have a variegated colorway for the main colorway and a semi-solid for the cuffs, heels, and toes; but I went out on a limb and dyed some sets with a variegated mini and semi-solid main colorway like the one above.
Here’s one with the more typical variegated main skein and semi-solid mini:
You can see all of the sock sets right here, and these are also part of the sale.
Small Price Increase
I also wanted to let you know that I have increased the prices of my art batts by $2 per batt. I have really been needing to do this for a long time because the cost of fiber keeps going up and these are time-intensive to make, but I’ve been putting it off because I didn’t want to make it harder for you to enjoy my luxury art batts. Nevertheless, I couldn’t put it off any longer, so I decided to do it now so that you can take advantage of the sale.
I think that’s everything. I hope you have a great weekend and find some time to enjoy the fiber arts!
