Yarn Club Sign Up - John Hughes Movie Night
Sarah and Dana of Another Crafty Girl and Unwind Yarn Co. (respectively) team up to create 2 Crafty Girls Yarn Club.
This first round will consist of a shipment from Unwind Yarn Co. in July and a shipment from Another Crafty Girl in August (shipments will go out by the 3rd Friday of each month). The theme of this round is John Hughes Movie Night; that’s all we’re telling you - the rest is a surprise. Each shipment will contain one skein of sock yarn (80/20 SW Merino/Nylon; 400yds/100g); there will be no swag.
The cost of this club will be $52 for US customers and $60 for International customers. This covers two skeins of yarn and their postage.
Deadline to sign-up for the lottery is June 15th. A random number generator and unbiased party will be used to select those who will be in the club; a lottery system is being used because there are only 30 spaces available. Everyone will be notified on June 20th informing them of their club status by receiving an invoice or a sad email.
To sign-up simply fill out this form, only enter once!
By submitting this form you agree to either pay your invoice (if chosen) by June 30th, or let us know you’re not interested as soon as possible.
Also, there will be a membership given away on upcoming episodes of the Just One More Row and The Knitgirllls, keep an ear out for those details. :)
There was a quickie update this week (@ Another Crafty Girl). It’s mostly dragon colorways this time. Enjoy!
I’ve finished a couple projects in the past week so hopefully I’ll get some good photos of them soon and be able to share those with you. :)
See you next week!

Hey everyone. I’ve just send out the May Newsletter! If you’re not on the mailing list, no worries - you can view it in your browser.
Lots of fun things are mentioned, such as the brand new Muppet Colorway, a Summer KAL and Yarn Club!! EEE!! Exciting! Go check it out!
♥♥♥
Shop has been updated! There’s a few new colorways this week that you can see above. :) I really like them and hope that you do as well. All inspired by Flight of the Conchords. I should be updating every week from now until SSK but they won’t be huge updates as half of dyeing each week is being saved for that show. Also, just to say it again, I won’t be taking anymore special orders until the end of summer (unless you need at least 3 skeins of the same thing).
Also, there should be a newsletter going out tomorrow so if you’re not signed up you should do so now, here.
There is a super awesome announcement that will be made. ;)

This weeks shop update has been made (@ Another Crafty Girl). Some new colorways this week inspired by Flight of the Conchords. Hope you like them! There will be more colorways from this series in the next update, which will be May 14th. There will be no update next week. :( I’m reorganizing the ‘junk room’ and trying to turn it into more of an office space for me. :)
Also, I won’t be taking anymore special orders until the end of the summer. I’m sorry to do this but I need to focus on getting stock built of for SSK and hopefully YarnCon in the fall. The only exception to this rule is if you need more than 2 skeins of the same thing for larger projects.
Look for the next update in two weeks!

Vittorio (WIP) by Corrina Ferguson
Cast this on last week and finding it to be…totally awesome!! This pattern is so much fun, and was designed specifically with highly variegated yarns in mind. I knew I had to cast it on immediately! I’m using my own yarn for this one; my Twinkle Sock base in the Haunted House colorway. I think this pattern and colorway work so well together and will be lovely to wear in October!
Also, this base is very fun, I’ll admit, I’ve not knit with it very much but I totally forget that I’m knitting with a sparkly yarn and then when I look down at my knitting it’s such a nice surprise!

Lala’s Simple Shawl (WIP) by Laura Linneman
I just started this over the weekend and totally love it already! This is a really popular pattern (nearing 2000 projects and for good reason!) and because of that I’ve decide to make a few modifications to make mine more unique, like me. Just simple things like a different increase along the center stitch and a different cast on, and a few other small things. You can find those details on my Ravelry project page.
I’m knitting this Unwind Yarn Co. - Weekend Sock in the Faded Graffiti colorway. Dana is a master at color and I fell in love with this one right away. I knew I wanted to knit this into a simple textured shawl and I’m so happy to finally be knitting this up for myself. I simply adore it!
If you like this pattern (I don’t know why you wouldn’t!) and want to knit along with me there’s currently a KAL going on in the designer’s group. I will also be using this for the final SSK (Super Summer Knittogether) KAL as well as for the Gratitude KAL hosted by the wonderful Fat Squirrel Speaks podcast. You should definitely check her out, she is wonderful!

This weeks shop update has been made (@ Another Crafty Girl). There are even a few unclaimed Muppets for those hesitating to join the KAL! I hope those of you that tried the DK last week are enjoying it. I’d love to hear your feedback!
Hope you all have a wonderful week!

A glimpse at some new colorways I’m working on. And yes, this is how I generally come up with my colorways - going back to my roots and playing with crayons. I love all the colors!
This weeks shop update has been made (@ Another Crafty Girl). This update took much longer to get up than I thought it would, been starting at the computer editing and listing for over 4 hours alone, not to mention the approximate 4 hours of re-skeinging + photographing before that!
Hope you all love this new base as much as I do. It was so enjoyable to dye up in a rainbow of colorways for you to choose from!
See you next week!
♥♥♥
Just popping in with a sneak peek at just a few of the colorways that will be available tomorrow in my brand new Simple DK yarn base. There will be 21 colorways to choose from! I expect the update to be up sometime between 6-7pm CST @Another Crafty Girl. I’ll of course post again when the update is live!
Also, check out the Muppet KAL over in the Ravelry group if you haven’t already! It’s gonna be awesome!
MUPPETS KAL
Hey everyone!! I was already missing having KAL going on so I’ve decided to start one an a whim.
This time, we’ll focus on my most popular color series based on the Muppets. There are currently 12 colorways to choose from so hopefully everyone will find one or already has one they want to work with. For a quick look at the qualifying colorways you can view them all here.
Of course there will be a prize drawing, which all those who complete a project within the time frame will be entered. This is a super awesome prize, it will be a skein of my yarn in a brand new, surprise, Muppet inspired colorway. So excited.
For all details and to play along, please visit the ravelry group!

Thank you all for everything! I’m so happy to finally have found something that I love to do and I’m honored that you enjoy working with my yarn! ♥
This weeks shop update has been made (@ Another Crafty Girl). Hope you all find something that you like today. It’s a little small this week as I decided I needed a day off on Friday (since my last day off was Sun, March 18th) so I’m at least 12 skeins short but next week should be bigger. Remember, next week is the official release of my brand new DK weight!
See you next week!
