Yarn Boxes
As we've just launched our Spring Boxes for this year, I thought it was a great time to do a proper show and tell of our Christmas Sock Box from last year!
We were so lucky to be able to include patterns from two amazeballs designers!
| Our Knitted Sock pattern was designed by Christy Houghton (yarn_cafe_creations on Socials!): | Our Crocheted Socks pattern was written specifically for our sock box by Anna Nikipirowicz: |

The yarn was Rosarios 4 Meia. Now those that follow us on socials or come into the shop will know that I am a HUGE fan of Rosarios 4. Their yarns are LUSH, and I'd known from the summer exactly which yarn we were going to be including!
Meia is a Merino/Polyamide blend of sock yarn, which they list as sport weight, but knit quite comfortably as a 4ply with 29 stitches on a 2.5mm. Apart from the gorgeous colour palette, the main draw for this yarn is how soft it is. It really does feel like a pure merino, which gives your socks that extra feel of luxury.
(and yes, we will be stocking Meia going forward, in fact, it should be here by next week!)
So the patterns. First up we had the Santa Baby Socks by Christy Houghton - Christy's Ravelry shop is packed full of adorable sock patterns, but Santa Baby's cute lacework front was really cute with the Meia Print!
For our crochet offering, Anna came up with this adorable short sock pattern, echoing the lace front of the Santa Baby socks! And who doesn't love a shortie sock?!
As usual, our boxes came with gorgeous additions, this time with an adorable Emma Ball Mug, a hot chocolate stirrer, and some little chocolates and some Eucalan Wool Wash (perfect for those socks!).
We've had some amazingly lovely reviews left about the Sock Boxes, we are so proud of them!
Which brings me nicely to this year's Spring Boxes! You've got just under 2 weeks left to get yours ordered!
They will be shipping from Wednesday 25th March, just in time for the clocks changing, so you can 'Spring Forward' with lovely new yarn!
They will contain a whopping 200g of 4ply yarn - enough to make one of the gorgeous shawl suggestions we will include (we've got ideas for both knit and crochet!) plus of course some lovely little gifts ☺️
So quick, go and order yours now! Here is the link:
Happy Spring knitting everyone!
