Buy enough for your project
When purchasing Ozark Handspun yarns, try to buy enough for the entire project from the same lot. Each batch is a unique combination of dyed wools. Additionally, as the sheep and goats age, their coats change color. These two factors make the yarn colors extremely difficult to duplicate later, so it’s important to purchase enough for your entire project.

Ozark Handspun yarns are hand dyed with a range natural and synthetic dyes. The fibers are then picked and handspun with emphasis on unique texture. More about how it’s made, Knitting with Ozark Handspun yarns, and Free patterns.

We are excited to invite you to Passport to Unwind, a series of exclusive events featuring the most coveted, most elusive yarns available today.

Stephanie and her Unwind team of yarn collectors have scoured the world of independent yarn dyers to present you what we consider to be some of the most gorgeous, plush, luxurious, saturated skeins that will thrill, inspire and enchant you.

This carefully curated selection of artisan, hand-dyed yarns are not to be found at any other yarn shop in the area. In fact, many cannot be found at any shops in the United States. You do not have to travel to foreign lands or find yourself at your computer, fighting with others in varied time zones in hopes of winning one coveted skein. No need to suffer the uncertainty of trying to choose colors from a computer screen.

Unwind, as your host and yarn tour guide, will take you to an exclusive yarn world where you can see, touch and purchase these beauties live and in person.

Stephanie and her curators love and know unique and beautiful yarn and the colors that are fresh and current.  They have worked hard with the artists that create these coveted yarns to share that love with you. These are yarns for the pure pleasure of knitting, yarns that with every stitch bring sensory joy. Your knitting is as unique as you. Shouldn’t your yarn be too?

This is an experience you do not want to miss. This is your all-access backstage pass, this is your Passport to Unwind. Your $50 Passport entitles you to:

• Four exclusive events, featuring yarns that are not available in local shops; in some cases not available in any shop in the United States – only 50 Passports will be available (ONLY 9 REMAIN)

Our newest Pick of the Month is the National Gallery Shawl by Tanis Grey.  This shawl is a nice example of the striping that is so popular right now in shawls, with the added textural interest that comes from the daisy stitch.  This shawl is made in three skeins of Knit Collage Stargazer Silk & Sequins, two in Color A and one in Color B.

The pattern is available here, through ravelry.  This kit is available for a limited time only, once the stock is gone, it’s gone.  So don’t wait, order your kit now!

With each purchased skein of Manos del Uruguay yarn you will be helping a woman to support her family. Each skein is signed, so you will know who made your yarn, and from which village it came.

You will be supporting the hand-crafted rather than mass-produced, and contributing to an economy where the workers control of the means of production. You, as a handknitter, crocheter or weaver, will be contributing to women’s careers in harmony with family life, and contributing to the landscape, and cultural heritage of Uruguay.
