It’s time for the reveal of what’s included in the second YarnYAY! subscription box of 2022! The YarnYAY! February Box #46 features gorgeous products and projects from  SIX different women-owned (or co-owned) businesses. Here’s what’s inside!

Gunnison | Tahki Yarns

This month’s yarn evokes the spirit of warmth & coziness. When stitched up, the loft of the single-ply Italian wool mixed with a polyacrylic strand of color makes for unexpected pops of color.

Tahki Yarns was founded by Stacy Charles, and a part of the WEBS catalog of yarns. Learn more at: yarn.com

This month, we’re saying shawl, y’all! Shawl-collar cowls, that is. The knit version, designed by Vickie, is knit flat, collared with simple short rows, then creatively seamed.
