Rainbows Rock Yarn Club is focused on rainbows and how much they rock... which is why we also gave them fun, rock music themed names. Colorways will be released every other month, starting in March 2023, with 6 total colorways being dyed. If you purchase an "All" option, you'll get a bonus item too (see below).
​​
Yarns used:
Fingering weight yarns will be used for all colorways. Sock yarns will be dyed on Tuff Toes and Shawl Balls will be dyed on Twinkle Toes. Depending on stock availability, we may be required to use an alternate yarn base, but all yarns used for shawls will be a merino wool based yarn and sock yarns will be a merino wool/nylon blend.
Colorway Put-ups:
All colorways will be dyed as:
-
170g incremental "Shawl Ball"
-
100g of sock yarn... three of the colorways will be 100g repeating striping and the other three will be 50/50 matching-sock sets.
See images for the colorway concepts. White "heels" were added to sock images to give an effect of a sock "look", but it is not included with purchase (available as an add on each month, or if you sign up for the full club, you can use the mini skein set we add in, see below).
We'd also like to note that the graphics are representations of our ideas and final results will rock (even if they vary). If you have any questions about a colorway, please send us an email: brendaandheatheryarns@gmail.com

Pattern Suggestions:
We have shawl patterns (knitted and crochet) and sock patterns (toe up and top down), that will be offered with the purchase of yarn via download link. For the most part, we plan to offer already published BaH Yarns Patterns, but some new patterns are in development too! And, as always, our yarns work with other designers patterns. We encourage you to get creative!
​
Canada Shipping Surcharge for buying an "All" option:
Our store has a default flat rate to Canada per purchase, but if you are purchasing one of the "All" options, with shipments every other month, you will need to pay an additional shipping fee to cover the cost of shipping all the yarns. Please select the option "I am shipping to Canada" from the drop down menu.
