Hill Country Weavers is Closing - Thanks for the Memories!

Due to incredible response to our closing sale that started Friday, August 1, we no longer have sufficient inventory to support online orders.

Suzanne, as she was building HCW over the past 45 years, strived to provide the very best in services and selections to customer online as well as in the store. She believed that HCW could be "your local yarn store" wherever you lived. She was proud and appreciative of the large following HCW enjoyed. We are grateful for your loyalty and support.

Suzanne coined this phrase and it's one she lived and encouraged others to as well -

"All you Knit is Love."

    Designed by Eri Shimizu in collaboration with KOKON yarns.

    This beautiful new shawl kit was inspired by Autumn and Winter and the many shapes and colours that can be found in nature in these seasons. 

    A beautiful and engaging knit, the autumn and winter shawls use brioche, cables and smocking stitches in the design.

    The Autumn kit called AKI is from the Japanese word for Autumn.  Shades of copper, yellow and pink encapsulate the season . FUYU means Winter and consists of cooler shades of silvery gray, pink and plum.  They each have the beautiful depth of tone we've come to expect from KOKON.

    * 3x100 gram skeins of Kokon Merino Fingering in assorted colors 

    * 1 x 20 gram skein of Kokon kidsilk Mohair

    * a project bag (with a beautiful printed illustration by Karolina Skorka for KOKON in honour of this design.
