    We are so thrilled to welcome you to our Sustainable Sock Club, the Skein Edition (previously called our Sock Skein Subscription)!

    The "Skein" edition is the little sibling of our Sustainable Sock Club Box. It's perfect for you if you love gorgeous natural sock yarn, and have enough stitch markers to last you a lifetime :)

    When you become a member of the Sustainable Sock Club – Skein Edition, you'll get a skein of 100% natural, non-superwash, plastic-free sock yarn every quarter. The yarn sourced from a different indie dyer every quarter – we try to find a good balance between bases – and hand-dyed in an exclusive colorway by them. Your first skein is our October Skein, themed "Fall Produce".

    Our Sustainable Sock Club October Skein will ship at the beginning of September. Membership slots will be open until July 19, end of day, or we sell out.

    How our Sustainable Sock Club works:

    As part of our Sustainable Sock Club - Skein Edition, you get our exclusive quarterly sock yarn right to your doorstep. The yarn you'll receive is always 100% natural fibers, i.e. no nylon or other artificial strengthener added (hooray for being plastic-free) and non-superwash. Your club membership will automatically renew each quarter. You can pause or cancel your membership up to two months before the next skein arrives.
