Is this your first time receiving our newsletter?  Catch up on all of our 12 Knits HERE. 

We are partnering with hand-dyers--big and small--to bring you exclusive colorways dyed to our specifications, based on some of the loveliest vistas in the Midwest.  We can't give it all away yet (that's part of the fun!), but some of our dyers include Dream in Color, Lorna's Laces, Three Irish Girls, Fleur de Fiber...and many, many more.

What Does The Club Include?

FREE Gifts for 12-Month Members Only:   

1. A large logo tote bag. 

2. A commemorative logo stitch marker.

3. A discount coupon for 3% off EVERY purchase made at Wool & Honey, both in-store and online.  (We think this is reason enough to sign up!)

Every Month:  

1.  One 100 g skein of fingering weight yarn.  The bases will change every month; think superwash wool blended with bamboo, silk, Seacell...even sparkles!
2. One semi-precious stone stitch marker in a coordinating color, made by our favorite local jeweler, Liz Saile.
3. One printed pattern.  Choose from of a pair of socks, a shawlette or a baby sweater.  Can't commit to one type of pattern every month?  No problem--call us and we'll make sure you get exactly what you want.
4.  10% off original retail price. All of these items (the yarn, the stitch marker and the pattern) are at member discount prices.
5. A preview of the next month's club offerings.  This gives you the option to choose your favorite pattern, add more skeins to your order or even send your box to a friend!

While we hope you're spending every minute of your spare time soaking up these September rays, we also know that a few short months from now is the culminating event for generous knitters everywhere.  The holiday season, while it may be just a frosty glimmer on the horizon, is slowly approaching.  And we know, because we've had the same conversations with so many of you year after year (after year), that this is the year you're going to do it right. 

No more knitting-induced carpal tunnel that sidelines you for the entire month of January.  No more Christmas Eve all-nighters (because we probably don't need to remind you that you're not 19 anymore.)  No more last-minute, caution-to-the-wind, unrealistic projects that leave you sweating, swearing and wondering whether they'll even like it.   (You can't knit a pair of socks for everyone in your office, your daughter's piano teacher and your husband's boss's brother if you wait until Thanksgiving weekend to start.  We know.  We've tried.)

  

The holidays, regardless of your specific traditions, are meant to celebrate the sacredness of humankind.  Gift knitting isn't about obligation or about one-upping your sister-in-law.  It really can just be stripped down to this: your two hands making something--big or small--for someone who matters in your life.  A 'thank-you' to the teacher who spends every day with your son--and the person who finally taught him to enjoy reading.  A little something for the neighbor who always waters your plants and picks up your mail while you're on vacation.  Your mother's favorite nurse--the only one who can get her to take her meds.  

Without question, our 12 Knits of Christmas is the best it's ever been.  The focus is on gifts that you'll be ecstatic to give, whether it's because they're knit with yarn you've never seen before (they are), they all require less than two weeks to complete (they do) or because they're fresh takes on classic knitted gifts (they will be).   

There's more.  (Of course.)  We'll be giving away two outrageous prizes to two very lucky knitters.


1.) For each ambitious customer who purchases ALL 12 kits, you'll be entered into a drawing to win a 12-month subscription to our exclusive Sleeping Bear Yarn Club (a $563.35 value!)


2.) For each kit ordered, you'll be entered into a separate drawing for a $100 gift certificate to Wool & Honey, either in-house or online.  (Ordering 3 of the same kit?  That counts as 3 entries!)
