July YarnYAY! Box

July YarnYAY! Box 2021

July YarnYAY! Box

It’s time for the 2nd box in our Wool Free Summer series. We’re extra excited about this one because we got to work with 4 other women-run businesses, bring a shade-premiere in a delightful linen/cotton yarn, share a vintage-inspired kit, and introduce our new favorite, body healing product. Here’s what’s inside the July YarnYAY! Box!

But first, a moment to check in with our July Vibe!
