New In The Shop
We have MORE baskets!  These baskets are so great, we sold almost all of the shipment we got in last month right away, so now we have even more!  There perfect for yarn and they make great gifts for anyones general toting and storing needs.  They can be used for groceries, toys, stuffed animals, art supplies, clothing, magazines, or fill it up and make it a gift basket.  Come see the new patterns and pick out your favorite!
 
Sarah's cooked up some fresh batches of soap just for the season.  There's Peppermint Scrub, Orange Clove, Peppermint Vanilla, Lump of Coal with either Vanilla and Clove or Rosemary and Tea Tree, Orange Cedar and the always popular Lavender.  These soaps are made by hand, locally, with all vegetable oils and scented with essential oils.  They are especially nice to use in the winter since they provide extra conditioning oils to help keep your skin from drying out.  Plus, Lump of Coal soap makes a great stocking stuffer!
We have more bags from Binkwaffle!  These sturdy bags are perfect for projects.  Pick a little one for a small project, or a large one for something more substantial.  With a wide opening, it's easy to see inside to get what you need.  They are also fully reversible, with adorable patterns on both sides!  A perfect gift for a knitter or for yourself!
While you are at ReBelle, take the opportunity to enter Local First Lexington's Holiday Shopping Challenge.  This year, to enter you need to 1) Shop Local, 2) Take a selfie in the shop, 3) Upload it to Facebook or Instagram, and 4) Tag it #LocalFirstLex.  The prize this year is a HUGE gift basket full of items from Local First Lexington business!!  To make it slightly more entertaining, we've provided a basket of props and a selfie stick for you to use for your selfie at ReBelle.
 
Yarn of the Month
We always like to pick a chunky yarn for December's yarn of the month.  This year, it's Aquarella by Malabrigo.  Aquarella is a gorgeous single ply thick and thin 100% merino yarn.  It comes with 65 yards to 100g skein and as you would expect from Malabrigo the colors are simply mouth-watering.  You can use one skein to knit up the Cashmere Neckwarmer (shown below) or try some of these other patterns for a quick and cozy knit:  Three hour cowl, Two hour hat,  Mile a Minute Scarf, Rustic Baby Hat, Urchin (hat), Ovate (shawl), or Chunky Slouch Cap.
