January 2012 – a new year & new colors!
It’s the heart of gloomy winter. Everything is barren and brown. I miss the brilliant hues of spring and summer (This is probably not surprising after last month where I dyed colors after flowers, huh?) So I’ve dyed up some highly saturated colors, but this time from the cool side of the palette. Show off your sophisticated, inner Ice Princess with these regal colors.
This month’s yarn is very similar to December’s yarn base (Charlotte Bronte Fingering) with one difference – this month’s yarn is superwash treated. So if you loved the thinner sock weight, with that distinctive, two-ply nubbly texture but need machine washability, this is your month!
Each skein is 4 oz, 560 yards, 100% superwash merino. Need an extra skein or three? No problem – they’re $21 each plus shipping.
If you’re new to the club, remember to follow the link you received in your club email to submit your color choice & order additional skeins!
Green with Envy
A monochromatic progression in green! Spring green, kelly green, emerald and deep blue green march along the length of this skein. Green has been quite popular with club members in the past, and this one is sure to please all the green-lovers! Pair this skein with navy, grey, or black for a classy color accent to your winter wardrobe or welcome spring with brilliantly green socks! (St. Patty’s day is coming!)
Ice Princess
This skein is mostly blue, but with a pop of purple and mustard to brighten it up. Dull mustard, teal, sky blue, brilliant blue, and a blueberry dance across this skein. If you like jewel tones, you’ll love this skein. It’s regal enough to satisfy the pickiest princess!
Beautiful yarn!
Thanks so much, Emma!
Holy mackerel – I LOVE Green with Envy!!!!
Doesn’t it remind you of spring? Even my Nick (who is pretty numb when it comes to new colors) through it was a stand-out colorway!
It screams for attention and I love that kind of colorway!!!
That green colorway! I want it to be my secret boyfriend on the side.
Elizabeth – you make me laugh! Love it!
Hi!
Just wondering if the packages are shipped now. I know the shipments are out in the last week of the month but it’s 2/9 today and I can’t WAIT to see the yarn in person!

Hi Jean -
They are coming! Shipped on on their wait to you!
Also, please ignore the fact that your first & middle names are reversed on your packing slip. They uploading oddly from PayPal – I’ll get it fixed for you next month.
