Dear YarnYAY! Community & Supporters,
It’s with all of the feels, and a deep breath, that I announce that month’s will be the last monthly box, as we begin the process of closing YarnYAY! by Vickie Howell.
Five and a half years ago, this business essentially fell into my lap. I was just wrapping a tour promoting the launch of The Knit Show, and in the middle of writing my 13th book, The Knit Vibe when an executive from CrateJoy approached me about co-founding a subscription box for knitters. The arm of their company that ran subscription box businesses with creators and entrepreneurs who already had a following would handle the capital, fulfillment, customer service and sourcing. I would be in charge of project design, pattern writing, product curation, marketing, media content, and anything else creative. I had longtime been wanting to add a retail aspect to my overall offerings, but with a very full plate hadn’t yet figured out a viable, responsible way to do that. This seemed ideal.

Have you met her? This is final shade of VH Montoya Merino, Sputnik Spruce, and she’s practically perfect in every way. Hand-dyed by the amazing @spunrightround I could not love this non-traditional, holiday palette more!
Get this limited edition run of Sputnik Spruce in the YarnYAY! December box. Now available at YarnYAY.com (link in bio)!

Second only to the #dollyparton costume exhibit, a highlight of our trip to Nashville was a tour of @hatchshowprint . I wanted to move in! *sigh* Block printing is dreamy. 😍 ...
Ok, reposting the December Unboxing, because it looks like I chose the wrong posting option last time, so only 90 seconds came through. The vid’s 7 minutes, so hopefully this time it works! (It’s posted in full on my Facebook page, YouTube, and YarnYAY.com, too.) Thanks for your patience! ...
Love the color it’s worked in! Like buttah.
That is such a cute cardigan – love the yellow. And great idea to go with only the number of buttons needed – kids just don’t stand still long enough for any more!
That is a beautiful cardigan! I can’t wait to try the sheepish yarn!
I have to tell you, I love your patterns, I have used several of yours that I get in my Caron newsletter. I’m currently working on Urban Renewal and I completed Urban Jungle a little bit ago.
Thank you for the free patterns!
Thank you so much for saying, that! I’m glad you made UJ–make sure to share a pic!
Hi, vickie getting ready to knit miss swiss, but have a question is there also smock stitches on the back? I would like to knit the back in stockinette stitch. This will be my first sweater for my granddaughter. Also I am new to reading charts and directions.I just started to knit this past year with scarves and hats, prayer shawls,etc. I really would appreciate your help since she wants this sweater. I have purchased the yarn already and will make a size 6 since she is five. Thank you! angie
