Having a bit of a shit day, so going to cheer myself up by starting on a new project. I've had this yarn in my stash for close to 5 years now. Should probably do something with it. 😂

This is Vidalana Aloft in Tiger Lily, an old knitcrate yarn. It's a super soft and squishy dk weight; a blend of merino, baby alpaca and cotton. And it is so, so soft.

RIP Knit Club Kits – But I’m Still Enjoying You Lots

RIP all the Knitting Kits I used to buy. After stocking up for pennies on the dollar, I'm still enjoying them...and still learning new knitting skills.

Back in a different time and place  – 2018 – I discovered Knitting kits. These high quality knitting kits opened a whole new world of knitting for me. I started using real wool and other “luxury” all-natural fibers for the first time, and my knitting skill increased by leaps and bounds.  My late husband gifted me my first kit for Christmas at the end of 2018 (after a helpful nudge from me, of…

June 2021 Crate Reveals

We’re warming up the season with this month’s clubs! Check out what to expect in your June club crates.

Meet the yarns and our themes in this month’s full crate reveal on YouTube.

Knit & Crochet Club Theme

A yarn store glimmers in the distance. As you get closer, you can make out shades of green, blue, red, and gray – which one will be right for your next project? The good thing about this mirage, though, is that it doesn’t disappear as you get closer. All of the yarn is at your fingertips, ready to be knitted or crocheted into your next creation. As the desert sun slips beneath the horizon, make yourself a cozy scarf or shawl to keep away the cold as the wind blows across the sand. We know you’ll love this month’s yarn and projects that call to mind a beautiful desert mirage.

For our Knit & crochet club this month, we are featuring some of your favorite knit and crochet artists from Spain! Special thanks to Clara Mateo who helped us coordinate the designs for this month as well as shared her talented photography with us.

KnitCrate Knit & Crochet Club

This month’s yarn is the luxurious Vidalana Oasis, a mix of 50% Alpaca Wool, 25% Peruvian Highland/Merino Wool, and 25% Suri Alpaca. These three kinds of wool blend perfectly to create a yarn with beautiful drape that is oh-so-soft to the touch. Your crate comes with two matching skeins of DK weight yarn, each with 250 yds (229 m) / 100g. You won’t be able to resist including these silky-smooth fibers in your next project.

KnitCrate Knit & Crochet Club June 2021 Colorways

Members will receive 2 matching skeins in one of these 6 colorways.

Palm Springs: This soft mossy green, with yellow undertones, calls to mind a quiet desert oasis.

Casablanca: Enjoy the serene waters of a peaceful lake with this deep teal blue colorway, just like gazing upon the ocean from a patio in Casablanca.

Sahara: The breathtaking colors of the Sahara shine through in this ginger colorway.

Morocco: Bring the beauty of a Moroccan sunset into your next project with this blushy pink-red yarn.

Tucson: This deep rusty red reminds us of old brick buildings and desert sunsets.

Nevada: The sun beats down upon the cobblestones in the warm taupe-and-gray skeins of Nevada that also include streaks of teal.

Phoenix: The understated beauty of this Phoenix colorway allows us to imagine the firebird rising from its deep purple-gray ashes.

Hello just looking at Knitcrate. The yarn looks fabulous.

[daizyredz]

My August KnitCrate came today! I'm so excited! Thus is also my last regular member crate, for September I have signed up for the sock crate. The energize me option was already taken, though, so I went with anything goes. Hopefully, energize me will open up again and I can grab that from now on.

My November 2020 KnitCrate arrived!!! 😍❤️useful information about Peruvian Highland Wool!!! 🧥👒

[imaginary-alchemy]

Got a bit of time on it before the feeling of 'I need a gd nap' won out. Progress is progress though and I really love working with this one. It's gonna look so good when it's done. 😀

Edit: the lighting in this room doesn't do this yarn justice. I'll get a better pic out in my garden when it finally stops raining.

[charlotte-sea]

Today felt like a good day to open up my @knitcrate and dye some yarn! I've never dyed yarn before, and I've been nervous. 😬 But I pushed through and gave it a shot. All week, I've watched video tutorials by @chemknits, so I am as prepared as possible! I used black cherry, grape, blue raspberry and lemon lime kool-aid.

There was ups and downs. I accidentally put my green kool-aid in a cup that was just a little moist, so that sucked. But I was able to add it to the water at the end.

Dyed, washed and drying... We'll see what happens!
