This club is a collaboration between knitwear designer Natalie Sheldon, the yarn business Biches et Bûches and The Blue Rabbit House. The club consists of a sock size project bag, two balls of yarn and a sock pattern!
Project Bag:
The project bag features the cute duck with her quilted outfit named Odette. It is printed on 100% organic cotton and to close the bag, you just pull on both sides of the vegan cork cords.
This club will provide you with a sock size project bag. Please use the club add ons to upgrade your bag with a wristlet strap, a detachable strap, inside pockets or a mix of the previous three.
Skeins of Yarn:
With this club you will also receive two balls of yarn to knit the sock pattern. The yarn is by Biches et Bûches and you will receive the colorway white and green pink turquoise in Le Petit Lambswool. You will have enough to knit any version or size of the sock pattern. It is a non superwash, nylon free yarn. Feel free to reinforce the heels and toes with some leftover silk/mohair you might have in stock or to knit it either on a smaller needle size to make the fabric stronger or to hold the yarn double while knitting this part of the pattern.
One ball is 50 gr and 248 meters.
Sock Pattern:
Included in this club is a copy of the Cosy Quilt Socks by Natalie Sheldon. The sock pattern gives you the option to stay fairly simple with the chart repeats or to make a very complex design. The pattern offers clear instructions to make the sock you prefer the most. It is beginner friendly, but also very challenging for those who are more experienced knitters.
You will receive a code through mail to add the pattern to your library. Please allow up to 48 hours before you receive the mail.
The mail will also give the instructions on how to purchase the pattern.
Needles are not included!!
Please send a message if you'd like to purchase needles separately.
