🐸 Tink Community Spotlight: Chris's Socks! 🧦

It's Socktober, so we HAVE to show off Chris's fabulous socks!

Chris used Arne & Carlos Socks & More 4 Ply, which does all that fun patterning for you while you knit a simple vanilla sock.

Sometimes the yarn deserves to do the heavy lifting. 😂
Beautiful work, Chris!

🌈 Two little skeins, SO many possibilities!

Echoes Sock comes with two 50g gradient skeins, making it perfect for matching socks, mittens, or playing with color in a bigger project.

In the video, I'm showing off the yarn and talking about two fun project ideas: the Elyssa Dress and Cubes and Hues Cowl.
Which would you make?

Sometimes running a yarn store takes you places you never expected. Like becoming the center of a little internet controversy.

What started with a picture of our storefront turned into an avalanche of yarn orders, new friends from across the country, and one of the wildest experiences we've had at Tink & The Frog!

It's a story about yarn, community, standing up for what you believe in, and the surprising ways people show up for each other.

I wrote about the whole adventure on our blog!

✨ Store Sample Spotlight ✨

Melissa stitched up this Mandala Vest with just under 2 balls of Jewelspun Aran—and the results are stunning! The pattern shows off the bold mandala design beautifully, with stripes that look like handspun but come from this easy-care, wool-free yarn. 💫

Why we love it:
✔️ Takes less than 2 balls to make!
✔️ Jewelspun’s stripes do all the colorwork for you
✔️ Wool-free (100% acrylic), soft, and warm
✔️ Gorgeous mandala design that’s as fun to wear as it is to make

Want the look? Shop Jewelspun Aran and get started on your own mandala masterpiece:

Sample Alert - Fiji Cowl!

This is the emPower People Cowl by Casapinka, knit with just 1 ball of Fiji.

Michelle knit this one, and it was fun, fast, relaxing, and easy — exactly the kind of project that feels good to keep picking up.

Fiji is a super soft and squishy merino wool with fun color changes that keep the project interesting as you knit. The cowl is mostly garter stitch with an easy increase, so it works up quickly and has a wonderfully squishy texture.
