2024 Blanket Yarn Club – Gems
This year’s Blanket Club will take its inspiration from the theme, ‘Gems’. Over 12 months we will create a gorgeous array of 12 semi solid hand dyed yarns exclusively for club members.
Boxes will contain 200g (two skeins) of beautiful hand dyed yarn 100% British Bluefaced Leicester Aran yarn for you to knit into any aran weight blanket pattern of your own choosing. Patterns will not be included, leaving you free to find a blanket project that suits your own style and ability. The colours of the hand dyed yarn produced each month will complement each other, so by the end of the year you will have a beautiful, yet individual, pure wool blanket.
Subscribe on a month by month basis and dip in and out to enable you to spread the cost of knitting a 100% pure wool blanket. Please note this is not a rolling subscription and if you want to receive the following month’s yarn, you must sign up for it each month.
Boxes will be available to purchase until Monday August 19th and will be posted out shortly afterwards once dyeing is complete.
The Product Gallery shows the January, February, March, April, May, June and July Gems Blanket Yarn Club – ‘Garnet’, ‘Amethyst’, ‘Aquamarine’, ‘Pink Diamond’, ‘Emerald’, ‘Alexandrite’ and ‘Ruby’.
