Tellybean Knits Merrymaking MKAL 2024
5 x 25g minis + 1 50g mini!
Pattern not included
Note: to add a shimmer to this project, undyed silver Stellina has been incorporated into three of the four kits. Stellina is a man-made fiber made from polyester and nylon, a metallic-toned fiber that's soft and smooth. This base deviates from the other skeins in the kit in terms of composition (cashmere, stellina, merino), and in yardage for the Gingerbread Forest and Silver Bells sets. Because this is a colourwork project where the Stellina is carried along with another colour there are no notable differences using them together for this MKAL.
Tellybean Knits includes a 15% security with all estimated yardages, and all Tully’s skeins exceed the estimated yardage for the project when used in the recommended order (which is also included on the back of the label). Individual tension can affect required yardages on a per-knitter basis, make sure to check your gauge! 🧶
While all yarns have been fully processed, hand rinsed and machine washed, differences in water pH can impact dye release. A short, monitored wetting is recommended for blocking colour work projects, especially if using undyed yarn and/or reds and pinks.
