    Kindred Spirits yarn subscription

    A gift to future you.
    A gift for the special knitter in your life.

    This subscription is for the knitter who loves hand-dyed yarn. It's a single skein (or more, if you're so inclined) of a brand-new, surprise colorway.

    Use it for color play, for pushing your color boundaries, for inspiring your creativity, for squishing, and for wanting to cast on as soon as it arrives.

    You get:

    • A new skein of yarn, every other month
    • Hand-dyed on my most luxurious yarn base: Cashmere Blend, which has a delicious 20% cashmere content
    • Free-to-you shipping, which gives you a $6 discount
    • The option to order more if you ever fall in love with a color and want to make a bigger project
    • Ideas and inspiration on what to do with your skein

    Your subscription starts with the October/November skein (which ships in late October/early November).

    See the pictures of the last year's worth of club skeins to get an idea of my dye style.

    About the theme & colorway inspiration

    Each colorway is inspired by Anne of Green Gables. Whether you're a true fan of the book series or movies (original or Netflix remake) or simply want the prettiest yarn subscription you can find, this yarn is the one you will reach for, again and again, when knitting from stash.

    Shipping is free to you!

    Yep, you don't pay for the shipping on this package; I do!

    Subscriptions are a cornerstone of my business. This stability means I’m able to pay for your shipping and still earn a living wage. 😁

    You get ~$6 off your order by paying for the yarn only.

    I pay 100% of shipping for US subscribers, and offer $10 flat rate for international subscribers.

    This pricing structure reinforces my value that we’re always in community and working toward the common good!

    Subscription billing

    Subscribers are billed once every two months. You can cancel at any time, but if you leave your subscription in place, you'll get ongoing and wonderful yarn as long as I am dyeing new colorways!

    Your first charge happens when you sign up and, thereafter, on the 15th of these months: January, March, May, July, September, and November.

    FAQ about my yarn subscription club

    Yes! About a week after the club has shipped (or, about when your yarn arrives), I open a pre-order listing so you can order extra skeins for a larger project. I also tend to offer the colorway on different, seasonally appropriate bases, too.

    This blog post has ideas on what to do with a single skein, especially if the color isn't in your wheelhouse.

    The yarn club is a surprise, though, so if you don't like surprises, it's probably not a good idea to subscribe. That said, if you're truly disappointed by a colorway, my regular return policy applies: If you return your yarn within 30 days, I'm glad to give you a store credit.

    I ship everywhere except Europe and the UK. Unfortunately, country-specific laws put in place during the Covid-19 pandemic are not workable for me as a solo person business.

    Every other month, during the last week/first week of:

    • February/March
    • April/May
    • June/July
    • August/September
    • October/November
    • December/January

    You're charged for the first shipment when you sign up, and then on:

    • January 15
    • March 15
    • May 15
    • July 15
    • September 15
    • November 15

    Yes! Just log into your shop account, and click on "Manage Subscription." You can pause your subscription there. If you have any trouble, just email me.

    You can cancel at any time. Some folks sign up for a month or two, some sign up for a year, and some have been receiving Kindred Spirits yarn since I started the club in 2018!

    Order October 2024

    I have not received new skein. ?
    Deborah Holz

    Hi Deborah: I just learned that my review system sends review requests when I print your shipping label (which happens about 10 days BEFORE the shipment is due, which helps me batch organize my work). Your club shipment was promised to ship the last week of October/first week of November, and I took it to the post office on November 4, the 2nd workday of November. I'll be following up with you privately by email to ensure that your package arrives safely.

    I hope you'll come back and edit your review when it does arrive!

    Warmly,
    Anne

    Special yarn

    This is the only yarn subscription I have held onto over this last year. It's always gorgeous and so incredibly soft. It's so special to me, in fact, that I keep it in a bin next to my go bag so I can grab it if we have to evacuate. I have never regretted this beautiful subscription and so look forward to receiving the yarn! 💚

    Best subscription out there

    I've been an on and off subscriber for a few years and it's, hands down, the best one out there. Each shipment has a bundle of the SOFTEST, most luxurious cashmere blend fingering yarn in the loveliest of shades. I'm currently not a member and am begging to be let back in. ;)

    So Happy

    The Kindred Spirits yarn club makes me so happy! The yarn is absolutely beautiful and inspiring. I have loved everything Anne of Green Gables for as long as I can remember. If I had to choose only one yarn subscription for the rest of my life it would be this one!
