Coffee and knitting. Can it get much better? A custom colorway from the amazing ladies at Knit Circus doesn't hurt. If this sounds right up your alley, then you're in the right place!
This month's kit includes a gorgeous gradient yarn, hand-dyed for Club Yumi by the Knit Circus crew. This is a club-exclusive colorway that isn't available anywhere else and was created based on coffee berries. (Do a quick Google search, the images are beautiful!) We chose to use their Trampoline base for this kit because it's incredibly soft and squishy, perfect for knititng into a color-shifting shawlette to throw around your shoulders while enjoying a delicious cuppa with some friends.
Coffea RoasterieSpeaking of delicious drinks... I'm offering something new this round. Glorious Gradients Club subscribers received a free 12 oz bag of 's Tio Emilio coffee with their kits and since the subscriptions for this trio sold out, I'm also offering the coffee as an add-on if you purchase the individual kits. (Sorry, it isn't free this way but you can still try the pattern's namesake coffee.) This is my absolute favorite coffee and I am so excited to get to share it with you! Coffea is a local (to me) coffee roaster/shop that has been perfecting the art of artisinal coffees and teas for a number of years. They focus on clear and ethical sourcing, roasting and brewing with attention to detail, and creating conections with other local businesses and artists in the communiy.
This kit includes:
1 - 100g skein of Knit Circus' super bouncy Trampoline fingering-weight yarn in the exclusive Club Yumi colorway: "Espresso Yourself!"
1 Printed Copy of the Tio Emilio mini-shawl knitting Pattern
1 Digital Copy of the Tio Emilio mini-shawl knitting Pattern
Other Materials Needed:
US Size 3 (3.25 mm) 24" Circular Needles
Stitch Marker/s
Tapestry Needle
Scissors
6/0 OR 8/0 Beads (Optional)
Your Prefered Beading Tool (Optional)
I hope that you guys are just as excited about this kit as I am and I can't tell you how thrilled I am with this beautiful colorway that has been created for us by Knit Circus. If you would like to get your own kit, I do have a handful left in the shop so pop over and get yours for only $41 while supplies last!
Happy crafting!
