Three Month Yarn Club - SEMI-SOLID YARN
Oct, Nov, Dec
Choose Your Own Sheepventure is a monthly yarn club where you are the main character of a cozy little story that ends with two options. The option you pick determines your yarn colorway - and story path - for the month.
You have volunteered to run the 'Ber Months Committee and organize fun monthly festivals in Spindle Falls - a town devoted to wool and sheep. It sounds simple enough, but the sheep have a knack for causing mischief and you never know what each month will bring.
Each month you will receive a short story via email. At the end of the story you will have two choices, each connected to a new, exclusive yarn colorway (we'll include hints about the yarn colors within your choice). You'll tell us which choice you make, and we'll ship you the yarn, and the continuation of the story! The first story choice will be emailed to you on October 2. Please make sure the email address you use when you check out is correct, as it is the only way we can contact you.
For example, at the end of the story you may be asked to choose whether to chase sheep across a wildflower meadow (sky blue) or into the forest (dark pine). (See a full example, including yarn pictures from last time) Please note all yarn photos on this listing are examples of previous yarn club shipments. The yarn you receive will be a surprise, new semi-solid colorway.
Your one-time payment will include 3 shipments of semi-solid yarn (around the 20th of Oct, Nov and Dec) on the yarn base you select. If you choose to pay monthly, your card will be charged on the day you sign up and then on Oct 1 and Nov 1. Your subscription will be automatically cancelled after that.
Our most popular base is Yarny McYarnface - it is a thicker fingering weight, soft, and a little fuzzy. It is very hard-wearing and a great alternative to merino. Farm Tough Sock is the same wool content, but is 4 plies, a bit thinner, and more smooth. BFL/Nylon is a soft, smooth, and shiny yarn. Very thin. The BFL/Corriedale blend has a little more tooth, but is still soft and smooth. We also offer the standard merino/nylon blend that is loved by many knitters of indie-dyed yarn, as well as a NON-Superwash, 100% Corriedale which should wear well for knitters who prefer a more gently processed yarn (and who know how to care for non-superwash wool).
25g coordinating mini skeins, and sock tube cranking are available as well. You can add or stop these options at any time during your club membership.
