It's time for a preview of next week's Summer Days Knit Kit! This is the second of three of our 14th Anniversary Knit Kits we are releasing this summer. Our first sold out in about an hour, and so if you really want this one, please be ready on Monday, July 1 around 10am EST at our Kits & Clubs link.
What will you find in this particular Knit Kit? The fabric for the Medium Wedge project bag is the inspiration for this set- the large print of the wildflower pattern makes a really stunning impression on this hand made bag.
Caroline at Life in the Long Grass really knocked it out of the park creating a colorway for this kit, didn't she? I mean, not only does it coordinate perfectly with the bag, but it stands alone as an amazing color- the blending of so many hues with no muddiness and only clear, pale tones. Then a splash of speckles here and there to accent the watercolors.... this is a splendid skein with real artistry.
The icing on this14th anniversary cake is a set of five hand made stitch markers. Useful, lightweight yet durable, and so adorable that they make my face break into a grin every time I see them. I mean, look at this little guy close up. Do you need something to bring some levity to your day? This little snail might be it.
Thank you so much for your continued support of our creative endeavors. My crew of three and I love what we do and curating our Knit Kits with our dyers and craftspeople is always a highlight of my job. As we enter our 15th year serving you I hope that you'll continue to share with me the ways that I can make SSYC you're local yarn store, online and in person. Your advice and recommendations have turned SSYC into the shop it is today, and I greatly appreciate each e-mail, comment, phone message and conversation.
Again, this kit will become available the morning of July 1 in the mid $60 range. You are more than welcome to add more items to your order to qualify for free US shipping at $100, or to take advantage of our flat international rates. I've just stocked our Sale Section with even more fab deals, and we have a restock of the popular Backyard Chicken Collection colors from Hue Loco PLUS their Color Riot minis like the Sultry Set the Women of GoT, shown below. We even have full sized skeins of the Game of Thrones inspired colors here.
We have some gorgeous color sets coming next week from Sweet Georgia and Dream in Color so you can start the Perfect Blend KAL in good time. Casapinka herself even put together these sets from Dream in Color. Here's a bit of a preview of a few of the curated color options.
