We have partnered up again with Karida Collins of Neighborhood Fiber Co. for a wonderful new club that will get you ready for the holiday gift giving season! Get inspired with a colorful package and exciting yarns in this four-month club.
The cost is $195 for in store pick up and an extra $20 for shipping within the United States. (The club value exceeds $200).
About this club
Each package will contain yarn, a matching accessory knitting pattern, and creative gift wrapping ideas – all focused on helping you create unique and colorful gifts for a special person in your life. There are two packages for women, one for man and one for baby. The patterns are accessories (as in items that will warm your loved ones head, hands and neck). The yarn gauges vary from fine to chunky weights, and you will receive exclusive some colorways and yarns. You have two color options: cools or warms (see below). The first package heads to you on September 10th and the last on December 10th. The club will also feature monthly meet ups.
Color Options
The club offers you two color options: cools or warms. While the photos below are examples of warm and cool colors, other shades in these color families will be found in this club. Violet, for example, is a color that may show up in either a warm or cool club package. While warm and cool colors seem easily defined, many of the colors from Neighborhood Fiber Co. involve layering of multiple colors. So, a warm color layered with a cool color may produce a new color that might be considered warm or cool. Karida will do her best to determine which colors really “pop” in a particular colorway and classify accordingly. However, since every eye perceives color differently, you may discover a pleasant surprise in your package.
The fine print – what you can expect
You will receive four total packages containing: a new, previously unpublished accessory pattern by an independent pattern designer, yarn to make the project and a unique gift packaging idea from the yarnistas here at the shop. Of the four packages that you will receive, two will include brand new base yarns, and two packages will include brand new colorways. The fibres will be entirely animal fibre or animal fibre blends.
The four club shipments/packages will be available at the fibre space™ shop no later than the 10th of September, October, November and December of 2012. If you select delivery to your home, the package will be shipped by the 8th via the US Postal service. If you selected pick up from the shop, you may do so 2 business days after the yarn has been shipped out to other members.
Club Meet Ups
With your club membership you also get club meetings! This club will have a monthly knitalong at fibre space™ on the second Wednesday of each month from 7-9 pm, starting in September and ending in December. The meet ups will feature lots of knitting help and encouragement to keep you on track for finishing your holiday gifts. Danielle will be knitting along with the club, and the fibre space™ yarnistas are, as always, ready with help and advice. By working along with your fellow fibre space™ knitters, you can set a monthly goal to complete the project from that month and encourage each other along the way. If you don’t live nearby, no worries! We will be sure to have a forum on Ravelry for you to chat on, and we will post photos and advice for each project.
