We are excited to share this year’s Christmas and Winter kits with you! Last year we had our kits ready the week before Thanksgiving, and many of you asked if we could please put them up earlier the next year, so you’d have time to knit them up before the holidays. And we were happy to do that!
This year, the Christmas Kit has two exclusive skeins of Wollmeise (a red/pink/blue/teal/cream multi-color with a beautiful sharp red/fuchsia semi-solid to match) called Wings on my Feet and Blitz von Kitz. The Winter Kit has one exclusive skein of Wollmeise in a mix of gorgeous blues/teals called Toeloop. You’ll notice that the Winter skein also goes well with the multi-color and semi-solid in the Christmas Kit. All three were dyed and named in celebration of flying across the ice on your ice skates!
Vickie from Bird Leg Bags took our fabrics and whipped up beautiful Sock Skinny project bags to go with each. The Christmas Kit has elves frolicking in the snow (recess time at Santa’s workshop) lined with a happy red gingham, and the Winter Kit project bag features a beautiful design by Kate Spain with soft colored birds in a winter tree, lined with hearts.
We have lots of kits ready for you to send out to you, so pop over for yours while they last!
Sheri and The Loopy Elves
The bags are as delightful as the yarn. Is it possible to order the bags separately?
Hi Marla! Thanks – so glad you like them. Unfortunately we don’t have extra bags this year.
Marla,
When I receive my kit I will happily sell you my bag. The retail on bird leg bags site is 27.50 plus shipping. If interested I will give you my email.
Do you just have any bags available
Love the colors! Can you buy just the yarn?
These are so fun! They just went on my Christmas wish list!
OMGoodness, I *just* realized that the red and turquoise are an exact match of the variegated! How cool. I need to find something that uses all three hanks. 🙂
Any pattern ideas for the Winter Kit?
