Why are we doing the collective?
Let me get a bit personal here.
Making Stories is my life's work. I truly believe that we can make this world a better place by showing how a business that cares for this planet and its people can exist and thrive, even in a capitalist world.
That being said, it's damn hard. Choosing this path means higher paper prices and printing costs, much more time spent researching the origins of everything we carry, making very careful decisions about what to purchase and how much.
It's also meant that for a very long time, I've done the full-time job of running Making Stories without any compensation. That's no longer doable, nor acceptable.
I don't want to perpetuate the harmful image of an "on the surface successful" business that only exists because its owner is in the privileged position of not having to pay themselves any longer. Also, I am worth it. This work is worth it.
The Making Stories Collective is a way for us to generate a stable additional income stream for the business that'll help create a salary for me.
I hope you join us on this journey - and know that with every single contribution, I will be doing a little happy dance. Thank you for making this work possible. Hanna Lisa x
Questions about the Collective?
We got you covered! And if there's anything else you'd like to know, we're just a click on the chatbox or an email (hello@making-stories.com) away.

You can sign up at any point in time for our Collective membership. Immediately after you've signed up, we'll send you an email with direct links to the Collective-exclusive content, products (if we currently have exclusive products available), and your discount code if you've selected the Sweater Quantity level.
Whenever we have a new behind-the-scenes post, early access or new products coming up, we'll send you an email so that you know what we have in store for you :)
Every month, your membership will auto-renew. You can cancel it at any point in time - with your cancellation, you will lose access to the exclusive content and products, and the discount code won't work anymore.
-
Immediately after you purchased your Collective membership! We'll send you an email with all the details.
Should that email not arrive within a few minutes of your order, please check your Spam folder - and if it's not there, please do get in touch with us (chatbox or hello@making-stories.com).
-
Yes! Simply log in to your account, click on "Manage Collective membership", and choose which level you'd like to upgrade or downgrade to.
-
Your Collective membership is a monthly auto-renewal. You'll get charged on the same day every month on which you started your membership. For example, if you got your Collective membership on August 23, it will renew on September 23, October 23, and so forth.
-
Our Annual Subscription is for our magazine only - with it, you get our two magazine issues a year, and early access to our magazine-related yarn releases.
The Making Stories Collective encompasses the entire webshop - early access to all yarns and products that we're launching or restocking, Collective-exclusive content and products, and, if you choose the Sweater Quantity level, 10% off everything in the webshop.
The discount for the webshop is also applicable to magazine subscription payments as long as you're a member of the Collective.
If you already have a subscription with us, and are now becoming a Collective member at the Sweater Quantity level, please get in touch with us so that we can apply the discount to your subscription!
If you don't have a subscription yet, and you want to become both a Collective member at the Sweater Quantity level, and a subscriber, here's what to do to apply the discount to your subscription: First, purchase your Collective membership. After a few minutes, you'll get an email with your discount code. Then, purchase your subscription, entering the discount code during checkout, and you're all set!

Oh no, we're so sorry about that! You can get to the Collective-exclusive content via this link. You'll need to log into your account to see the posts.
If that doesn't work, please send us an email (hello@making-stories.com) or a chatbox message with your membership email address, and we'll look into it right away.
