Warmer weather means it's time for lightweight, lofty knits, perfect for draping over shoulders or wrapping around necks on spring evenings. And what better for breezy knits than lace weight yarn? Just in time for the approaching summer, we have a brand new lace weight to introduce, as well as new colors in an old favorite. Say hello to Swans Island Merino/Silk Lace, and welcome back to Fyberspates Scrumptious Lace!

From the misty coast of Maine, Swans Island Yarns have a way of capturing the pure beauty of natural fibers and colors. As lovers of Swans Island Bulky and Fingering, we were eager to meet the latest addition to the Swans Island Natural Colors collection, Merino/Silk Lace. We're pleased to say that it exceeds our highest expectations! A 50/50 blend of merino and tussah silk, Swans Island Merino/Silk Lace is a featherlight two-ply yarn that's perfect for any lace project you can dream up. Glistening pastel shades and soft neutrals create a nature-inspired palette that perfectly suits the subtle knitter.

With their art-deco-meets-fractal look, Boo Knits' gorgeous shawls have a way of mixing the ornate with the organic, creating designs that are a joy to knit and wear. Distant Hours is one of our favorites--the crescent shape drapes languorously over shoulders, and the lace border and picot edging add a romantic touch. Paired with Swans Island Merino/Silk Lace, Distant Hours is a luscious summer accessory you'll never want to take off.

Designed especially for Swans Island Merino/Silk Lace, Juliette is a dainty little scarf perfect for wrapping casually around the neck to add a touch of elegance to your summer garb. A simple diagonal lace border gives Juliette a soft, wispy look without too much fuss.

Feminine and flattering, Bonny is a beautiful and non-traditional showcase for a lace-weight yarn. The stockinette body is pleasantly clingy and drapey to suit a variety of body types, while the lace panel adds something special to an otherwise basic top. All sizes of Bonny use just a single skein of Scrumptious Lace--it's the perfect way to get to know this yarn and create something gorgeous for your summer wardrobe!

Narrow stripes knit on the bias create a cool graphic cowl in the Arnhem Loop pattern. The simple diagonal scarf becomes a striking loop with one quick seam. We love the classic neutrals used in the original, but a bright and neutral pairing in Scrumptious Lace gives the piece an of-the-moment look.
