I'm new here. I had joined a while ago but had not gotten around to working on sweaters yet. After seeing the Beautiful Knitted Bodice Pattern--I could no longer resist! I did some investigating on the Tilli Tomas yarn and found that Sarah's Yarns is selling Tilli Tomas at great prices. I placed my order last week and its now confirmed. After paying with paypal my order was shipped out the same day. I got it 1 week later as it was travelling from NY to CA. I purchased 4 Pure and Simple in Jade and 2 Disco Lights. I paid a total of $131 plus shipping---thats about a $57.00 Savings!!!! Also, just in case anyone is wondering. I have no affiliation with this seller. I found the site on the internet when searching for Tilli Tomas:)
I love, love, love the Jade colorway---I fell in love with it when I first saw it on the Kpixie site. Take a look at the haul - Isn't it beautiful:
I can't wait to get started. I have lots to do: wind up the yarn in pretty yarn cakes, get my needles ready..., go over the pattern again and then start swatching. If successful, this will officially be my first sweater. I tried making one a month ago but then abandoned it due to other knitting pressures---bad, bad, marisol. But who can resist this sweater! I'll have to pick up the other one asap:)
Hey if there is anyone out there still waiting to purchase yarn--Give Sarah's Yarns a try. You seriously can beat the prices and you would end up spending that much on some of the other choice replacements anyway--don't ya think...

it is beautiful indeed. unfortunately, sarah doesn't have any matching colors (both pure and simple and rock star) left. those are good prices, though--thanks for sharing!
Oh no... Maybe she will be re-ordering soon.
Oh no is right! Phew, on the other hand. I keep telling myself I will not order more yarn!!
I was using the high prices as a reason not to order - until I saw Sarah's Yarns that is.
Can't wait to see when you start using that gorgeous yarn.
FYI. Just a point of clarification. I bought disco lights and pure and simple not rock star.
Thanks for the link! I am still pondering whether I am going to substitute yarn or bite the bullet on this one.
Sarah's shipping is astronimical. Almost $20 to ship 7 skeins!!!!Look at dreamweaveryarns or kpixie. They carry Tilli too, and kits for the bodice.
Discount Yarn Sale has all Tilli Tomas yarn on sale!!! Yahoo!
