Knot Comes Loose / Pigeon Sock
I'm so happy to introduce our very first release in our Collaborations Line from TurtleDove Yarns. 

Jim James of My Morning Jacket was kind enough to collaborate with us to create this colorway, a blend of various deep oranges & varying shades of blue from slate gray to nearly black & just a touch of chocolate brown.  The band collectively decided to name this colorway Knot Comes Loose after a song on their album, Z.

When you purchase a skein of Knot Comes Loose from our shop, you will receive a free pattern to make these fingerless mitts, appropriately named "My Morning Mitts."  The pattern includes sizing for mens & womens and will come in the post with your yarn. 

We are so happy with this first installment of our Collaborations Line.  Jim James was especially gracious in his participation & we are super appreciative.  Big Thanks to the entire My Morning Jacket band for being a part of this project.

No pictures just yet.  I am just reporting that Jim James has made the final decisions regarding the My Morning Jacket colorway!  (no hints, but i'm telling you its really great, gender neutral & very wearable.) 
The band has agreed upon a name for the colorway, giving a healthy nod at their album, Z. 
I am hard at work creating the skeins which have been pre-ordered & once they are ready, I will release images of the final product & make a limited number of them available to the knitting public. 
(if you have not pre-ordered, feel free to do so now).
yea!!!

Also, a shop update will be occurring on myhedgehogknits.com AND our etsy shop - turtledoveyarns.etsy.com on Thursday, July 16th.  see you there.
