YarnYAY! September Box

YarnYAY! by Vickie Howell September Box

YarnYAY! September Box

Oh, joy of joys it’s September which traditionally (at least in the “Before Times”, when time and space mattered) has meant the official kick-off of crafting season! Of course, most of us never stop making, but nevertheless, yaaaaaaaay Fall/Winter seasons!

To celebrate, for the YarnYAY! September box, I’ve worked closely with partners to create a specially curated collection of goodies that support small businesses and altruistic projects and treats YarnYAYers to over $65 worth of gorgeous items for our subscriber price of $35! We could all use a little feel-goodness in our lives right now, and it’s my intention that the YarnYAY! September Box is just that. Here’s what’s inside!

 

Urth Yarn Harvest Worsted | Featured yarn in the YarnYAY! September Box

Harvest Worsted | Urth yarns 

Harvest is a squishy, extra-fine merino yarn that’s hand-dyed with roots, fruits and nuts. Our selections this month are earthy shades Fig and Black Grape. Subscribers will be surprised with one of these colors at random.

Urth Yarns is a family-owned business, powered by the women dyers in Istanbul and Mersin. The company plants a tree in Africa for each hank purchased. 

 

Racer Knit Hat by Chris Bahls by YarnYAY!

Hat Patterns | Designs by Chris Bahls & Vickie Howell

This month’s projects are inspired by the straight lines and curvy turns of a racetrack. The Rever Hat, by YarnYAY!’s own Chris Bahls, is knit with mock-cable panels amidst a bed of rib and is finished off with a paper bag-style top.

The Racer Hat, by Vickie, is crocheted flat and through the back loops of stitches to create a knit-looking rib with spike stitch mock cables.

    I really love the idea of a knitting subscription club but i’m allergic to wool!! Are there any subscriptions that will be for cotton or acrylic blend yarn? I know i’m missing out on wonderful skeins of merino yarn, but what else can I do?
