Halloween is just around the corner, and what better way to get into the spirit of the season than by knitting up some spooky and fun projects? Yarn Love’s hand-dyed Halloween yarn and spooky-themed knitting patterns are back in stock. From cute ghosts to woolly candy corn, I’ve got everything you need to craft a spooktacular Halloween.
Sock Sets & Mini Skeins
My Halloween yarn collection features a variety of fun colors such as orange and black, purple and green, and even candy corn-inspired yarns. Sock sets and mini-skein sets are always very popular — who can resist those cute little skeins? Plus, socks knit up quickly making them a sweet project for October fun.
Choose from kits to knit up stranded colorwork sock patterns or use your favorite vanilla sock pattern to show off flashy, hand-dyed skeins.
Knitting Patterns for Every Skill Level
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced knitter, Yarn Love’s Halloween knitting pattern collection has something for everyone. From easy-to-follow patterns for jack-o’-lantern socks to ghost hats, and even candy corn covered sweaters, you’ll find everything you need to get started on your fall knitting projects.
Responsible, Sustainable, Luxury Yarn
Yarn Love’s yarns are made from Responsible Wool Standard fibers, dyed sustainably by hand in the Midwest, and feature the highest quality fibers I can source. My heirloom-quality yarn, which is kind to the earth, will last for year’s to come.
I know it’s likely extra hot outside right now, but July is the perfect time to cast on fall projects. There’s lots of time to knit at your ease and not feel rushed. Plus, hats and sock projects are small and portable, so you won’t be sweating it out under a huge pile of wool while we all wait for the return of sweater weather.

I’m delighted to announce my new jewelry line! Many of the pieces in today’s debut collection serve a double purpose of providing adornment and helping us in our favorite fiber arts. As you know, I love working with natural materials, so each piece has been lovingly-crafted from hardwoods like beech, walnut, cedar, and more.
First, we have the Butterfly Trio Earrings. Each charm shines on a different hardwood, with the unique grain patterns of Walnut, Beech, and Cedar lending stunning details to their wings. All my earrings are lead and nickel free for easy wear and gifting!
Those same butterflies take on even more forms in my Butterfly Stitch Markers Mixed Hardwoods Set. Each includes six markers in three sizes, with options for both knit and crochet. Your set could include Beech, Cherry, Red Cedar, Canarywood, Curly Maple, Lacewood, Red Oak, Mahogany, and even Purpleheart!
Last but certainly not least, we have my Butterfly Necklace with Detachable Stitch Markers. I love this piece so much! Beyond being a cute accessory for summer, its fringe of tiny flutterbies is ready to fly off your necklace and onto your projects as stitch markers.
It’s an excellent option for knitters on the go and is easily expanded with extra sets of stitch markers! Which piece is your favorite so far?
Christmas in July is at the halfway point, and we need to get moving on our holiday knitting! To provide inspiration, we have ALL THE WHIMSY SOCK SETS for you! In all the best colors and yarn weights, there is something for everyone. Check out these beautiful sets and pick a few to make your holiday socks.
Don’t miss out on our pre-order for our yarny Hannukah and Christmas Countdown Calendars! They are only open for a short time! Do not miss out on this extra special treat!
We’ve restocked some of your holiday favorites and what better way to celebrate Christmas in July than with beautiful jewel tones for all your holiday gifts? Imagine the joy these rich colors will inspire in scarves or mittens or socks or shawls for those you love.
New in the shop and full of holiday spirit is our Twelve Days of Christmas felt embroidery set. Make them for someone special or for your own tree. We think these would make a marvelous wedding gift or housewarming present.
Don’t miss the last of our regular Dye Live Plus Club series: Made with Love and Libations. Join our dyer Carolyn live virtually in the dye studio during your private happy hour and watch her dye the club colorway. You can even choose your base and quantity. All the details can be found here on this fun virtual dye experience.
Have you seen some of the Magical Christmas Stockings in our Make-a-Long that lasts the entire month of July? It’s not too late to get started. We’ll start our Knit-a-Long for Purl Soho’s Dumpling Bag on Saturday, July 15th. It’s a quick one hank project and sure to be appreciated in soft, squishy Tolkien DK.
We are loving the hand work projects, and at Needleworks later this month, Mary Nielsen will be teaching a Wool Applique class. Register soon for the class on Friday, July 21st at Needleworks, our community craft space in Winter Park, FL. Mary will teach us basic techniques used to stitch the Candle Mats from Bareroots.

Perfect to reuse year after year to put treats for kids, or anyone else, to count down to Christmas! Or, give it to your spouse/significant other to fill next year with goodies for YOU!
????️ Oh, what I wouldn’t give to be back in Hawaii. The Kaneohe Bay Shawl always makes me feel like I’m back there again.
The fringe has pure palm tree vibes and the lace reminds me of those dappled sandy shores. I guess wearing this shawl is the next best thing!
Kaneohe Bay is part of my Summer Shawl Bundle — purchase all three for a 25% discount.
(P.S. Look at how happy and tanned I was!! Ugh, I need a Mai Tai…)
