Before I share all the oh-my-gourd-geous fall goods we'll have for you tomorrow for Socktober and Halloween, I just want to thank you so SO much for your amazing support of our Socktober sock yarn club. It was, by far, the biggest and best response we've ever gotten to our clubs in all our 18 years. We had more clubs available than ever before, and space was sold out in in a weekend's time. To me, that shows me that you appreciate the clubs we've done so far if you keep on enrolling. I can't wait to share with you the beautiful marled yarns in our new SSYC Quirky Sock Yarn collection starting in your mid-November shipment. THANK YOU. *It's worth noting that sometimes we miscount or someone orders more than one club on accident and we figure that out a week later. So if you missed out, just email Allison at [email protected] and ask if we have an extra. Just in case we do.
Now, on to the Great Socktober Preview! These will all go up for sale in our Kits & Clubs section mid morning EST tomorrow, Tuesday October 2. First, two different SSYC Knit Kits!
those are the Spooky Pups Knit Kit and the Tricky Kitties Knit Kit. Each features a limited edition sock sets from The Sheepy Shire (see more of their goodies here), a bag from Mommy Sews, hand made stitch markers and little snips. These are just oh-so-adorable, aren't they? The fabric is just so cute and the yarn that The Sheepy Shire made matches it perfectly!
Then, don't ask me how, we have more of the Boolicious Knit Kits from before. I don't know how we found we have a handful of these, but we do! Adorable bag, a sock set from Fiberstory (more of her stuff here) and some cute goodies from Katrinkles and useful tapestry needles.
Emma's Yarn has pulled out all the stops for us with some spankin' new options. We asked them to dye up some DK weight sock sets in autumn inspired colors, and hat sets that featuring a mini skein for a brim or a nice stripe in a hat PLUS a matching pom. And yes, each of these DK weight sets is superwash merino AND nylon- and that's rare to find a hand dyed DK merino with nylon in it. And yes, we'll be offering this same DK weight yarn in a whole bunch of colors in the shop soon. AND DK weight minis. Seriously!
Emma's Yarn also sent us their two Halloween 10-mini skein sets, Treat Street and Boo Thang. We also have all their other new mini skein sets like Isn't She Grand (a sunset Grand Canyon theme) and Starry Night. Truly beautiful. Maybe try a couple for a Habitation Throw, pair with a solid for a Collins Tee or a Pixel Pop. Or just make the best pair of scrappy socks ever.
Love stripes? Me too. I have some great options from Night Owl Fibers.We also restocked their Christmas skeins that sold out really fast during Christmas in July. And the popular Mambo Remix. There are knit up pics on our website for most of these (the second picture on the listing).
Katie at Yarn Love has sent oh-so-many options for us! First, we have the Happy Jack sock kit back for ya. And it comes with the pattern, if you just respond to your emailed receipt and ask.
How about these beautiful sock sets? The main skein is the Yarn Love Oliver Twist sock and a solid mini skein for toes and heels. Just gorgeous, right?
And then we have full sized skeins in Halloween Hues and mini skein sets!
We have stunning fall hues from The Sheepy Shire in their sock and sport weight. Both have nylon too!
Plus we'll have this cute halloween mini skeins set from The Sheepy Shire too.
We have one last batch from Kenyarn in the Cauldron color. Jake Kenyan closed up his popular studio earlier this year but we're fortunate to have this exclusive color for the last time.
Love Leading Men Fiber Arts? Us too! We just added these guys to our shop in the past year and their fall offerings are perfectly autumnal and spooky! Anne's Story, Boo, Burnt Ends, Back to School, Firestarter, Monsters of Midway, Owl Always Love You, Turning Over a New Leaf... There are a lot of options and their full line is available here. I'll just put a couple below. LMFA also provides knit up pictures, so you can see how each might look in a project, which is quite nice when the colors are quite variegated.
Firestarter, above, is a fave!! Plus we have mini skein sets like Firestarter, Fright Night and True Crime and Chill.
Want tools? We had our artisan make two different stitch marker sets, one fall themed with maple leaves, a heddgehog, a fox and an owl. Then we have a Halloween set with a witch, black cat, pumpkin and candy corn.
Katrinkles has sent us their spooky sweater, fall feels, and cats sets too!
Love Madelinetosh? We do too and have their Halloween hues back again this year on many base yarns! I'm sure there are also a few things I'm forgetting, and I'll put them all here tomorrow when I'm fully caffeinated.
I hope this gets you even more in the fall mood! These goodies are all available in the Kits & Clubs section on Tuesday, mid-morning. It's worth noting that we often ship out within one day of your order, but during busy times like this, we need more time. We are a small crew, so please give us 2-3 days to see that shipment/tracking e-mail. Please also note that we often get emails or notes about combining orders or adding to them. During our busy times, this isn't really possible to keep track of, so if you place more than one order, but ask to combine them, it's likely that we can't at this time and they will ship separately as ordered. Also, if you realize that you'd like to add a thing or two to your first order, please place a second order online, rather than ask via email about adding, because by the time we check emails it could be that the item/s you wanted to add are sold out. We are happy to help you save money on shipping by combining orders when we can, but it's not possible when we are so (wonderfully) overwhelmed with shopping/shipping during this time.
