We are so excited about this month’s subscription box!
This month’s colorway is called Mint to Be! This colorway comes with an adorable snowglobe stitch marker!
With our subscription box, you pick the yarn weight, we pick the colorway. And as long as you are a subscriber to the club, you get discounts on the ENTIRE site! It is the perfect gift for yourself or for your favorite fiber artist in your life!
The perfect row counter so you can just knit.
WE WANT YOU TO GET…
-More Uninterrupted Knitting Time: No need to take your hands off your needles to pick up a pen, click a clicker, or unlock your phone for the 400th time.
-More Confidence In Your Skills: Know exactly where you are in your pattern whether it’s been 5 minutes since you picked up your needles… or five years
-More Finished Projects: Spend less time re-counting and frogging and more time actually knitting.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Replace any regular stitch marker with your row counter and knit
2. When you come back to the row counter move it to the next number in the chain as you pass it from needle to needle
3. Once you have completed the chain (or completed a pattern repeat), move the melody clip to the next number to mark 10 rows completed (or one pattern repeat completed).
4. Keep On Knitting!

“I dream my knitting, and I knit my dream.”
Vincent van Gogh has been an inspiration to many, including myself, but how would you interpret those gorgeous paintings into yarn? Come along with me on this journey to find out! From his earliest paintings of the common folk to the little yellow house to the ever famous “Starry Night,” this year is sure to be an adventure in painting!
Each month of 2023, I will be creating a yarn colorway inspired by one of van Gogh’s works, starting with his earliest and ending with his last. Each month’s colorway will come with a fun fact card that is all about the work in question and/or his life at that time.
$45 gets you a skein of yarn, the fun fact card, a monthly stitch marker and one to two other items that are van Gogh related. Some items may be knitting/crochet tools, others may just be fun items. Subscribers will also receive a discount on other items from my shop, including the option to order more of each monthly color at a discount.
Subscription members will get their choice of yarn base each month and an email will be sent to ask what you’d prefer. If you do not reply, the default base is my “light” base – 100% SW Merino, fingering, 400yds. Right now, other options are DK (100% SW Merino) and sock (Merino/nylon blend).
Not sure if you want to subscribe? I will usually have a preorder each month for the skein only (no items included).
All packages will ship the last week of the month, to ensure that I have plenty of time to account for all subscriptions, dye yarn, and find goodies.
Our Wednesday Spooky Mystery box, based upon the hit Netflix show Wednesday is now available! We’ve been loving the show and enjoying the adventures of the protagonist, Wednesday Addams. Her acerbic wit and monotone fashion taste spun us for a loop down the dark stairs… in a good way!
And what do we do when we fall in love with something? Well, we dye yarn! In this case, we offer an entire themed mystery box that we think you will love! The premium goodies are amazing and we think you’ll cackle with glee upon digging into the box… like one does into a grave. 🙂 Check out the mood board for hints about colors and tone of the box.
Choose your yarn base and how many hanks and leave the rest to us. The yarn colorway has been planned and it’s amazing…and it’s exclusive! The colorway is a split hank; something we don’t do often as it’s so labor intensive, but it turns out so unique and beautiful and the vibe of this box is just right for it!
Our 2023 Holiday Calendars are now available on presale! The Eight Nights of Hanukkah and Twelve Days of Christmas calendars for 2023 promise to be our most interactive holiday offering yet. Each is an invitation to tea and will be filled with yarn, goodies, and fun and interesting opportunities to learn and do more! Calendars are only available while supplies last and right now, early bird pricing is available. It’s the best time to order. Many of our friends order both as the yarn and goodies are different in each! We’re marking our calendar now and hope to see you at the “tea salon” next year for the holidays.
While the Bee Keeper’s Quilt Club has closed for new subscriptions, we have a few Tool Kits left. The bags sold out super fast, but you can still join in the fun for our 2023 Annual Project. Look for the thread in our Facebook group, the Yarny Ewes, to participate throughout the year.
So many good things this week, so be sure to check out all the updates below and then join us at 9:30 AM EST on Saturday for our LIVE! podcast over on YouTube! We can’t wait to see EWE!
My absolute favorite thing this year was designing the Mother’s Day Surprise Box and putting together our 2022 Advent Box.
These were true surprises that I got to give to YOU. Things that I knew you hadn’t seen before. And presents that you didn’t have to pick out for yourselves. I would hope that everyone who received one could say, “Oh! I hadn’t seen that before!”
I have had a lot of people ask if we are doing surprise boxes again next year and I’m happy to announce that YES WE ARE!
We’re doing a whole Surprise Box Club in fact!
And I’m giving you up to $80 off!
There is no coupon necessary for this deal and the early bird pricing and bonuses will be available for everyone who joins between now and Jan 1.
The club includes three seasonal boxes, to be shipped in March, June, & September.

March – A Flutter Of Wings
June – Playful Pool Party
September – Crisp Autumn Evening
Each box will contain:
At least 8 items
3 Twice Sheared Sheep tools (row counters, stitch markers, etc).
1 Skein of hand picked yarn with pattern suggestions
4 Wild card surprises
Over a $420 combined value
Early Bird Bonuses include:
$60 – $80 off the retail price
A special collector’s edition tin in each box
VIP access to purchase any add-on bonus products (such as special bags, tools, yarns, etc)
A $50 gift card to purchase our 2023 Advent box (so you can get a full year of surprises)
