Stress Knits

From my early days of watching everything yarn and knitting related on YouTube, I’ve been a faithful viewer of Stacy’s podcast.  On her channel, Stacy talks about her yarn, Stress Knits, her knits, her life in Michigan, and all kinds of fun stuff.  Her yarn is definitely unique and has an aesthetic that is clearly Stacy – soft, subtle colors that are generally more solid or lightly variegated than speckled.  

Today I’m going to tell you all about Stress Knits yarn!

Bases

Stacy dyes her Stress Knits yarn on a variety of bases, including…

Cloud (Lace – 74% Suri/26% Bombyx)

Halo (Lace – 70% Mohair/30% Silk)

Favorite (Fingering – 80/20)

Singler (Fingering – 100% Merino)

DK (100% Merino)

Sport (100% Merino)

Availability

Stacy has rather infrequent shop updates, since she’s not a full-time dyer,  so it’s imperative that you follow her on social media to know when those updates are happening.

Ease of Shopping

The Stress Knits website is easy to use – and I love Stacy’s photography.  It is so gorgeous and simple

Shipping

When ordering from Stress Knits, the shipping is pretty fast and priced reasonably.

Conclusion

Stress Knits  yarn is the kind I would choose to knit a sweater out of – the subtle, gentle colors are perfect for garments.  And Stacy is just such a joy to watch in her podcast – she’s so fun and inspirational!
