Shipping, payment & terms

Currently closed to new subscribers while I make the Savor box. Subscriptions reopen in late June.

We all know Beatrix Potter as the creator of Peter Rabbit and wee beautiful children's books. But, there is a deeper story to Beatrix and her illustrations, and I cordially invite you to join me in a journey of creative exploration, inspired by Beatrix and her art.

A SUBSCRIPTION UNLIKE ANY OTHER

The Beatrix Box arrives to your home every three months with a knitting pattern created by a guest designer, 2 skeins of my gorgeous hand-dyed yarn, and an artist-made surprise.

But, the Beatrix Box is so much more than this ...

It brings to life the values and artistic quality you've come to expect from Little Skein. It is a present to yourself, a delight to open, and fuels your knitting with inspiration and good feelings.

• The perfect blend of choice and surprise: I create multiple colorways for each box, and you choose which one(s) you want. This way, you always receive a color that thrills you. Each box has a different yarn base, from fingering weight to DK.

• Beauty that is everlasting: You may receive a new or a refreshed pattern that brings to life our shared values around slow, intentional and beautiful making.

• Joy that we celebrate together: Each box is centered around the idea of joy and making one's own place in the world. If you dive into the work and ethos of each maker involved, you will see a group of amazing people who, in their own ways, is forging a new path in the knitting community.

MY MOST ECONOMICAL YARN OFFERING

Subscriptions form the backbone of my creative business. Designing, making, and knowing that you're committed to this subscription lets me realize some economies, which I pass on to you.

• US subscribers receive shipping on the house, and international subscribers receive $10 flat rate shipping. This represents about a 10% discount off each box's public release price.

• Subscribers get to order extra yarn (if they want it) at 10% off. In most cases, it ships with your box before I release the collection publicly.

• You are part of my special circle, where I tend to you as I do my close friends, with stories and emails and my always-recognized superior customer service.
CURRENTLY OPEN TO NEW SUBSCRIBERS FOR Box #6 | Savor

• 2 skeins of Merino DK (100% superwash Merino wool | 231 yards | 100g)

FUTURE BOXES

The price of each box varies between $70 and $80 each, depending on the yarn base. My guest designers for 2021 are: Kavitha Raman (box no. 6), Dawn Henderson (box no. 7) and Tina Tse (box no. 8)

Each box includes:

• 2 skeins of yarn in a different yarn base

• A pattern from my guest designer

• Artist-made surprise

• Advance notice, so you can cancel a box before it's charged, if your circumstances or yarn needs change.
• Your first box will be Savor, and it is charged when you sign up.

• The subsequent box will be charged in late June, and future boxes are charged every 3 months. (There's a slight ramp up period where I get new subscribers on the same schedule as ongoing subscribers.)

• You'll always get to choose your colors.

• I reveal the color palette and yarn base about a month before your box ships.

• I add to the pleasure of this special gift-to-yourself with regular check-ins and small stories while I'm making everyone's boxes.

• You can cancel at any time if your circumstances or yarn needs change (please see my refund policy which applies if you need to cancel after a box is charged).

Loving my Beatrix Potter box from Little Skein

The base is luscious and colors are sublime! The little extra, a sweet little mushroom stitch marker in the perfect Agaric mushroom colors. Always great attention to details. Thank you.

Beyond what was expected!

What beautiful yarn and colors! Anne has, as is always true, out done herself.

Great colors and quality

I loved getting my Beatrix box. I chose to get random colors and am very pleased. They are a great pairing and I love the feel of the yarn.

Love the boxes!

Gorgeous yarns, lovely patterns, and always a special wee surprise! And customer service is outstanding and timely.

I LOVE this box!!!

The customer service is some of the best I've ever experienced, and this was before the first shipment! The colorways are just so gorgeous, the yarn is a delight to work with, and the pattern is so fun. The extra was adorable. This entire experience is so thoughtful and rich, from beginning to end. Yes, the yarn and pattern and extra are great, but so is the story that goes along with it and the thought-provoking pattern introduction. This just levels up the already fun experience of getting a box with surprises. I can't wait to see the next box. I'm so glad I found Little Skein in the Big Wool!
