Even though it’s probably super-hot outside, we want to get you your fibers for your upcoming projects! Summer is typically slow-season for Indie Dyers and that’s why some lovely folks have created Indie Dyer month as a way to show love for your favorite yarn companies even in the hot summertime months.
We want to show that we love all our customers also, though, by offering these special deals each week this month! Every Monday, then new Indie Dyer Month special will be announced. It will run through the Friday of that same week. Don’t forget great add-ons like Project Journals or Dye Booklets that can be on hand for last minute presents for makers in your life!

Stash Yarn Club is a monthly yarn subscription that ships hand-dyed yarn and fun yarn-related goodies direct to your mailbox every month. August clubs are on sale now. Only a limited quantity of clubs are available.
Each month we feature a different indie yarn dyer. This month we are featuring these beauties dyed by Cherish of Dandelions and Daisies. This is a sock weight 75/25 Superwash Merino wool/nylon yarn with 463 yds/100g. We do try and vary the yarn weight every month to keep it interesting.
We choose three different colorways and its a surprise as to which one you get in your package!
Along with a full-size skein of yarn, you get some little extras too! Think project bags, enamel pins, stickers, notions and tools, artisan-made stitch markers, poms, maker gear and more.
This is perfect for knitters and crocheters. We don’t include patterns in our packages but each month I send out a list of one-skein knit and crochet pattern inspiration in my email newsletter. That way you can choose to stash it or cast on a new project right away.
There’s something about Christmas that just takes us back to childhood, isn’t there? Maybe it’s the seasonal sights and scents that seem to zap us back in time, or maybe it has something to do with returning to our childhood homes and spending time with extended family. I say — why wait until December to experience all the fun and festivities? Let’s have Christmas in July!
My wish for each of you is that you find some time all year long to recapture the wonder you felt at the holidays as a child, and to enjoy every season to the fullest.
That’s why I’m bringing you a “Christmas In July” version of my Fairy Tale Knits yarn Advent calendar. This Advent-style knitting kit is the perfect reminder to take some time to do something you LOVE, every day. Unwrap some fun every day for 25 days in a row with this exclusive kit designed for adventurous knitters and crocheters!
The theme of this year’s Christmas in July Advent calendar is Saturday Morning Cartoons. Revisit all your favorites in this bright, whimsical collection! Each cartoon-rific colorway is designed to coordinate from one to the next in numerical order, so you’ll be able to pair them up in one giant project, or mix and match in a variety of smaller ones.
The Fairy Tale Knits Yarn Christmas in July Advent Calendar includes:
A full-sized skein of yarn in my Pegasus base (75% Superwash Merino wool/25% nylon, 463 yards per 100 grams). This larger skein will be a tonal colorway, the perfect background to pair with the minis or to use on its own for a special project.
24 individual mini skeins of yarn in the same base (20g or 92 yards each), individually wrapped so that you can open one per day (or night). The minis are all speckle dyed for that extra dash of festive fun. (If you’re counting, that makes it a total of 480 grams of minis!) Each mini skein is inspired by a different cartoon character or show.
The price for each Advent calendar set is $190.
Want more details? I’m not going to spoil the surprise by putting out pictures ahead of time, but here’s a list of the cast of characters you can expect to unwrap each day in your calendar (not necessarily in this order):
Bugs Bunny
Marvin the Martian
Sylvester & Tweety
Quick Draw McGraw
Daffy Duck
Taz
Jetsons
Care Bears
Pink Panther
Alvin & the Chipmunks
Garfield & Friends
Animaniacs
Tom & Jerry
Flintstones
She-Ra
He-Man
Smurfs
Woody Woodpecker
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Rugrats
Phieneas & Ferb
Transformers
Muppet Babies
Scoobie Doo
Huckleberry Hound
Each individual skein (full-size and mini) will be wrapped and numbered, so you can put it somewhere special as soon as it arrives and unwrap a little fun each day thereafter for 25 days.

Based on feedback from current caretakers of Suavest Sheep and Lovable Lambs, I knew that managing colorwork was the next big problem for these fleecy friends to tackle. After quite a few experiments and some interesting creations along the way, the Sensational Sheep are ready for action!
They come in two sizes. The small version is suitable for 5 to 8 yards of fingering weight or 5 yards of worsted weight yarn. Their larger cousins will achieve optimum fluffiness with 16 yards of fingering or 10 yards of worsted.
Colorwork not your thing? Each one will happily store yarn to keep handy for life lines, making stitch markers, holding stitches, or provisional cast ons. When a project is finished, store your leftovers on these friendly fleeces and you’ll have a fun and functional store of yarn at the ready for needed repairs

Do you ever look at a gorgeous skein of yarn online and hit “add to cart” but then have second thoughts?
“Maybe it won’t be the colors I’m seeing on my screen.” OR “Ooo… what if it isn’t as buttery soft as it looks in this picture?”
That’s part of the beauty of buying yarn at your LYS or a fiber festival. You get to pet and drool over the yarn BEFORE buying it and you know exactly what you’re getting. But not everyone is lucky enough to have an awesome LYS or fiber festivals in their town so if they want gorgeous indie-dyed yarn they take the plunge online.
So one day we had an idea — what if you could squish the yarn before committing to it?!
And that’s how the Wish To Squish Program was born. It’s really quite simple. You buy the yarn and if you choose to, we’ll pop a pre-paid return envelope in with your yarn. If it’s not everything you dreamed of when you rip open your package — use the enclosed envelope and put it in your mailbox to ship it back to us. We’ll give you a 100% refund — no questions asked.
You really have nothing to lose!
Of course, if you’re already a rabid fan of our yarns and know you’ll love it just select NO when checking out and we won’t send you a pre-paid envelope. We’ll save the bag and label so there’s no waste.
There is some fine print, but it’s not too painful:
–> Yarn must not have foul odors, be washed, worked up, or wound into a cake.
–> Yarn must be received by USPS within three business days of receipt.
–> Refund will be issued when yarn is received by us in its original condition.
–> Available to U.S. customers only.
So what are you waiting for?? Start shopping now and add to your cart with confidence!
Hello Fiber Friends!

Here is the catch: we have a very limited number available, so don’t wait to check it out!
We also have added customer rewards to our site! When you sign up, you’ll receive credits for sharing your referral code, celebrating your birthday and, of course, shopping with us!
