What to stash this week: Fleece Navidad

A mood board with purple images of snowy landscapes.

If you’d like a yarny experience from Spain, Aitana Villa, who is based in Catalonia, has a 2022 Advent set available to order. Enjoy a treat each Sunday in December, with four skeins of yarn in special colorways on a variety of bases (including Merino/nylon, alpaca/Merino/cotton and mohair) and a special surprise on Christmas Day. There will be a shawl pattern to tie it all together and some extra goodies.

A bouquet of pink roses and the text La Societa della Giardiniere, A collectable surprise club for 2023.

Sara of La Cave à Laine is launching the second year of her club inspired by La Società delle Giardiniere, the female branch of Carboneria, a network of secret revolutionary societies active in Italy at the beginning of the 19th century. This year’s club is themed around tools, notions and more!

A young light-skinned woman in a black dress and a colourful chevron wrap, standing underneath a graffiti'd bridge and gazing upward with a look of strength on her face, and the text Deflection Wrap by Jade Keaney.

The new Deflection Wrap by Jade Keaney from the SpaceCadet team shows off mini skeins using a chevron structure and textured stitches. The pattern is 25% off for one week only!

A square divided into four quadrants, each with a different colorway of yarn knitted up: blue with speckles, multi colored, red and yellow, and light turquoise with colorful speckles. The square has the words "Cranky Socks" in the middle.

If the time commitment has put you off handknit socks, then try one of Olive & Two Ewe Studios’ Cranky Sock Kits! It’s not a pair of ill-tempered socks. Rather, each kit contains a cranked sock tube in your choice of colorway, a coordinating mini for coordinating heels and toes and instructions on how to bring it all together.

Sockeye, the Barker Wool Knitting Our National Parks colorway inspired by sockeye salmon swimming by Brooks Falls in Alaska’s Katmai National Park & Preserve, is available to preorder through today only!

Pictured here are Dawn and I kinda-sorta twinning in our assigned pooling sweaters at Indie Untangled. I’m in the soon-to-be released Llano pullover. If you’d like to make it, the pattern calls for 3-5 skeins depending on your bust size: 3 for 30”-38”, 4 for 40”-56” and 5 for 58”-60″ (though I would highly recommend getting an extra skein or two because I used up almost all of three skeins for the size 30 and two gauge swatches.

Five skeins of yarn: two skeins of dark grey, two skeins of purple and one skein of orange.

Just in time for the end of Socktober, Victoria has updated her site with full and mini skeins of Brimham 4ply, Eden Cottage Yarns’ extrafine Merino/nylon sock yarn.
