Showing Third Vault Yarns

Happy Hogmanay and a Happy New Year!

We hope that this year is filled with fun crafting and much joy for you.

We’re heading into 2026 with a burst of colour, starting off with a Mystery study based on 2026 Colours of the Year combining colours of the year from paint companies that picked great colours. Though only from the palettes picked by you in December *wink* . The first palette using Hidden Gem, Mellow Flow, Transformative Teal and Warm Eucalyptus, is available to order till 12th of January 2026 with a quick turn around on the yarn dyeing after that.

We’ve got our Creature Compendium Yarn Club back for 2026, celebrating mythical creatures, cryptids and some fun fictional creatures. You can find out more and sign up here.

Our other year long yarn club is one for you to easily jump in when it suits you. An adventure in rich colour with semi-solid yarn. As with all our yarn clubs you can choose your favoured base yarn. Join us for January’s Theme of Transformation by the 20th of January!

The Holidays have begun depending on how you celebrate, and we’re in the last few days of the Third Vault Advent of fun and deals. So hop on over to our socials — InstagramBluesky — and see if any of the deals on our yarns and patterns catch your fancy.

There’s a 50% off Shawl Pattern Flash Sale using the code SHAWLVENTTVY on our Ravelry and Payhip, and some deals on our mini skein sets and sock blanks that will last through the year. 15% off with AdventDy1425 for minis and 20% off Sock blanks with Sock17Advent.

International shipping dates have passed, so nothing is guaranteed for arriving in 2025 outside of the UK, however we always have our gift certificates available. And for every gift certificate purchase before the 25th of December we’re adding on an extra 25% to the value, so that you get 25% extra for your bucks. A little gift from us to you and whoever it’s for.

If you’re looking into the new year instead and considering your yarn club plans, we’re bringing back the Creature Compendium for another fun romp across the world exploring cryptids and folklore with the occasional wildcard addition of a creature of fiction, perhaps even anime. There will be 12 colourways across the year in a base yarn of your choice, with Superwash, non-Superwash and plant fibres to choose from. You can sign up via Tally.

Over on Third Vault Yarns socials and in our newsletter, we’ve been having some Advent/ countdown fun. Instead of an hand-dyed Advent, we’ve got an Advent of deals, giveaways and fun for you!

Currently available are the absolute steal of deal £12 Mystery Hat skeins. By offering hat skeins, we’re just making a nod to a quicker knit and last-minute gifts with DK weight, worsted weight and Aran on offer, that and you can choose to add a pom pom to!

Come join us on BlueSky or Instagram to make sure you’re the first to know about our flash sales, discounts, new things and more!

The nights are getting colder over here in Scotland and the end of the year is fast approaching. We’ve updated the shop with new colourways and yarns, including our non-Superwash and plant fibre bases. Since it’s that time of year, we’ve stocked our Baubles, which include a geeky yarn colourway and a little extra all wrapped up in a pretty box or fancy bauble to put on or under your tree or mantle.

We’ve also got our newest range of hand-dyed project bags, with the fabric colourways celebrating autumn, the Aurora, and watercolour paintings. A full collection of Atlas, Calypso, and Luna bags enable you to choose between a large all-purpose crossbody bag, a more traditional roll-top project bag, and a perfect small to medium bag for projects on the go.

We’d be remiss if we didn’t also mention that the last few weeks of November bring back the Indie Gift-Along, which we’re taking part in over on Ravelry, with some of our patterns. You can check out via the gift bundle on our designer page.

The Indie Design Gift-A-Long is a six-week-long KAL/CAL of holiday gifts made from patterns designed by 204 independent designers. From November 20 at 5pm EST through November 26 at 11:59 pm EST we, along with 203 other indie designers, will be discounting several of our patterns by 25%. Use the code giftalong2025 to get the discount. Take part in the fun and shenanigans over in the Indie Gift-along group to win prizes.

There are lots of new things arriving in the latest Third Vault Yarns, 14th of March shop update — here are just a few!

CALYPSO PROJECT BAG

@softaccentsuk and I have yet another collab on the way for you called: Calypso! The newest addition to our hand-dyed collection. Calypso was named and inspired by EPIC: The Musical! Also a nod to my other large bag, Atlas…

The Calypso already made its debut at Unravel in February, and now the remaining bags will make it online for the update.
These bags have a roll top with an inside pocket to store your knitting needles or crochet hook, and a notebook! The lining is dry waxed fabric and easy to wipe clean. There are also D rings on each side to customize your carrying experience, with options to make it crossbody or single strap, and an O ring closure. This is designed to hold everything you might need for your project!

NEEDLEMINDERS

New to Third Vault Yarns are these super cute needleminders, designed by myself and our wonderful logo artist Sophie. These are sustainably printed on 3mm cherrywood veneer and come with an attached magnet and a backing magnet.

SOCK BLANKS

Exciting new sock blanks! Double stranded and perfect for socks, gloves or sleeves (though these are very versatile and can be used by alternating strands or unraveled and used as a repeating gradient).

Mountains on Fire is a returning colourway whilst Magic AF and Spices and Tea Leaves are completely new. The latter is also going to be sleeves for a new project for me!

If you’re still gift shopping or looking for a personal treat, we’ve got lots in the shop at the moment including restocks of our World’s Beyond colourways. New mini skein sets, mystery skein baubles, pins, jewellry and sticker sheets!

New to the shop, a Christmas Yarny Special: an ornament/bauble gift box! This is the perfect gift; you have the option of a mystery skein of yarn in a base/weight of your choosing. Pick your base yarn from the list on the TVY website and leave special instructions if you would like to include a gift message. These will be posted out ready packed so you can have it for your tree or gift the present as is.

Our Rose Goblin yarn and stitch marker set gives you sparkly skeins of reds, oranges and pinks with teals and greens. The stitch markers themselves are polyhedral dice with a similar color scheme, inspired by dice sets that I would love to own myself!

Our Storm Geode jewellry set is comprised of bar necklaces and bar or stud earrings! The Storm Geode jewellry is inspired by geode dice sets with encrusted gems that look like they have lightning storms inside of them. With a cool purple backing, a full polyhedral set is featured with a white and light blue lightning storm. (This design also comes as stitch markers!)

Looking for a medium-sized project bag? The Luna hand-dyed project bags have a supportive strap across the bag making it very easy to carry . Suitable for two-skein shawls, or will comfortably fit up to three skeins of 100g DK-weight yarn.

In dire need of decorating your tech or stationary? We have our Pride Potions and I Need More Dice! sticker sheets for all the fantasy nerds and dice goblins.

We’ll still be posting throughout last posting dates but keep in mind! They’ll most likely be arriving after holidays.

We’ve just released a new set of polyhedral dice stitchmarkers, perfect for dice goblins like ourselves — new dice without adding to your dice collection. This way you get to add dice to your projects instead. Along with this new release we’ve dyed up a few mini and 50g sets in a colourway inspired by the dice design, along with some other sets to go along with our stitch marker designs.

The Rose Goblin is the the first beautiful set and Semi Precious Loot Drop is the second. Stay tuned, though, as we’ll be adding a couple more sets this next week. The Sets are available on a range of our bases 4ply and DK, along with some sparkle 4ply mini sets.

We’ve also fixed the Fallen Gods listings on the website, ensuring that the prices are set up correctly; apologies if you had been looking at them previously. This week we’ve added some yarn in non-Superwash to Hseth and Makioron in both our Cormo Silk and Super soft Bluefaced Leicester DK.

If that wasn’t enough fun, we’re joining in with the excitement of both the Indie Design Gift Along on Raverly and the Fasten Off Yarn-a-long. Right now you can get some of our individual self-published patterns (including our newer ones at a discount until the respective discount periods end).

Indie Gift Along (ONLY ON RAVELRY)
Use the ravelry coupon code giftalong2024 for the patterns in my Gift-Along 2024 bundle until Wednesday, November 27, 2024 at 11:59 pm (23:59) US-EST

Fasten off YAL (ONLY ON PAYHIP)
Use the payhip coupon code FO2024 from 21:00 US-EST today (Friday 22nd) until Thursday, December 5, 2024, at 23:59 on any of my self published single patterns in the ThirdVaultDesigns Payhip store.

It’s been a busy couple of weeks, and they’ve been… interesting.

A lot has been happening and that’s not just around the world, it’s definitely the case at TVY too!

We’ve published a couple of new patterns, which were designed as an ode to the brightness of moon in the night sky and its many phases. It was designed in a Mohair Lace and DK combination, to evoke the etherealness often connected to the moon and its position in spirituality, fantasy and science. Working with yarns held together and separated stitches to produce the pattern gives a lightness to both the hat and cowl. Though as you can see, it’s also very happily knit in worsted using Roosimine to bring out the motifs. You can find them on Payhip and Ravelry:

Triple Moon Hat on Payhip
Triple Moon Hat on Ravelry
The Moon Calls Cowl on Payhip
The Moon Calls Cowl on Ravelry

With all the patterns also on our Patreon

We’ve also revealed the full shawl for our birthday Mystery Knit Along that took place from August to October. So if you prefer to wait to see the final shawl before starting, you can check out more of the pictures of the Parallelo Shawl on Payhip and Ravelry. The pictures were taken on a little trip to the Lothians to spend some time zine swapping, gaining inspiration and organising for some of the community-focused work that we’re doing here in Scotland with some other wonderful people.

As a reminder we do an End of Year Box every year, as a way of seeing the year out and looking forward to the next, and it’s your last chance to make sure you get one!

This year we’re doing things a little differently, and along with the option to choose between the main skein of the yarn club or a club box there are two upgrade options:

Either add the Adventurer’s Backpack Option, with fabric designed by us inspired by Winter Nights and Guiding lights, and made by @Kallokshekellen, to go with your main skein of yarn.

Or add the main End of Year Club Box, A Light in the Darkness. Which this year is themed around collective action and hope, with a community focus. £5 from each box sold goes directly to Mutual Aid. To go along with your main skein you will receive a number of extras that are chosen to connect with the theme but are also relevant to a yarn box.

Or you could add both and get a beautiful bag, yarn and all the extras.

Sign-ups close this weekend!

Speaking of bags….
The first batch of our Atlas bags in a new colourway have snuck their way into the shop. Each one uses it’s own unique section of hand-dyed fabric so they are all individual and once each one is purchased that’s it! Atlas is a crossbody bag with a hefty capacity, it has an internal patch pocket and a split ring to pop your keys on. The crossbody strap is also adjustable up to 150cm for great access in body size.
