Preorders for the first Ex Libris Fibers yarn & book club in almost a year will go live on Friday! Undead is inspired by three classic works of vampire literature. If you can’t get enough of my Dracula colorways, this is your club!

Undead Yarn and Book Club: Preorders open July 22

I want to offer this yarn club in a fair way, so rather than limit to a certain quantity, I’ll dye as much yarn as there is interest in the club. Preorders will be open for a week. This will bump up production time and stretch out the timing of the club a little bit, but look for more information about specific dates on Friday. Undead will also be yarn only due to some big studio changes happening (more below).

Check your inbox on July 22 for all the info!

Building a Yarn Speakeasy

I've hinted at it very subtly online, but this summer Ex Libris Fibers is moving out of my basement and into a production basement (aka, yarn speakeasy!) I am so excited (and nervous) and can't wait to share everything. You can read more about the space and timeline at the link below.

Read all about it!

I haven't had it in me to attempt the Steel Valley Yarn Crawl by bicycle, but thrilled this year to be a part of it at Yarns by Design!

The temperature snuck under 70 degrees a few times this month and I can’t stop cranking out fall colors. Your old favorites plus a new batch of colorways will debut on sock and DK at Yarns by Design on Tuesday August 2.

And the #ybdsummersockkal is still on this month! I've been slowly plugging away at my socks during these long days, how about you? Share on social with the hashtag above for a chance to win!
