This is a LIMITED EDITION package deal that is as much heart as it is creativity. It's great bang for your buck, will make you gorgeous projects, and is giving back to the LGBTQIA+ community.
PLEASE PRE-ORDER BY MAY 20th.
These packages are pre-ordered and will be shipped out May 27th (for Irish customers) and May 22th for the rest of the world. Most orders will be shipped before that. If you would like to order other skeins, please let me know if you'd like them shipped out before or at the same time as this package.
Each package contains:
- 15 mini skeins (as pictured) individually wrapped for opening
- 15 facts about the queer Middle Ages
- A stained glass crochet bag tutorial
- rainbow-themed charms
- 1 pom pom
- stickers
- stitch markers

Choose from mini skeins that are either:
-merino 75%/ nylon 25 % (sock/fingering). Each skein is 80m/20g. (Superwash)
OR
merino 78%/ 20% nylon/ 2% sparkle (sock/fingering).
Colorway: The colorway is inspired by the c. 1612 painting of the Magus, Balthazar (traditionally one of the 3 wise men in the nativity story). His colorway is called "Kaliedoscope King" and will also be available in June. His glorious rainbow colorway from head to foot is incorporated into the mini skeins giving you a kaleidoscope of colors to work with.
Previously, Republic of Yarnia donated 10% of orders to The Okra Project and Knit the Rainbow and the Trevor Project which supports mental health and offers help for suicide prevention for LGBTQ+ youth.
This year we will be donating to the LGBTQ+ Freedom Fund, which pays bail to secure the safety and liberty of individuals in jail and immigration detention. Donations will be sent June 15th.
This is such a win-win situation all around. This package gives you an opportunity to open up something special every day of June, receive something fun to create, learn new things about the Middle Ages, and fight white supremacy, homophobia, transphobia, and mass incarceration in one. It's so worth it.
