Yarn for the Many
Yarn for the Many is our newest bookish yarn! The deep blue, gilded copper and earthy speckles are all meant to echo and celebrate the colorscape of The Will of the Many by James Islington. The colorway knits up like a dream!
I partnered with, McLean and Eakin, my local independent bookstore, to release this book yarn AND a special knit cowl pattern that looks just like the pillars on the cover! The pattern is free on Ravelry! You can find it here.
If you love a good storyteller and an epic fantasy, The Will of the Many is for you! Read on for the book description:
At the elite Catenan Academy, a young fugitive uncovers layered mysteries and world-changing secrets in this new fantasy series by internationally bestselling author of The Licanius Trilogy, James Islington.
AUDI. VIDE. TACE.
The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world now, but they do not know everything.
I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilised society in allowing my strength, my drive and my focus—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.
I tell them that I belong, and they believe me.
But the truth is that I have been sent to the Academy to find answers. To solve a murder. To search for an ancient weapon. To uncover secrets that may tear the Republic apart.
And that I will never, ever cede my Will to the empire that executed my family.
To survive, though, I will still have to rise through the Academy’s ranks. I will have to smile, and make friends, and pretend to be one of them and win. Because if I cannot, then those who want to control me, who know my real name, will no longer have any use for me.
And if the Hierarchy finds out who I truly am, they will kill me.
You can order the book here or from any bookseller.
Yarn usually ships within 1 week. Dyed to order yarn may take up to 2 weeks.

BRK Yak Sock-This base is totally different from your average sock yarn and it is completely great! The unique fiber blend makes a wonderfully textured and beautifully soft yarn, perfect for sweaters, socks, and all accessories. BRK Yak sock is not the typical white yarn base. The dark yak fiber blended with the creamy merino makes a richly toned color which adds great depth to the regular colorways. The bare color is a lovely gray-ish tan so any colorways dyed on this base will look a bit different than the same colorway dyed on a white yarn base. Refer to the photos in the shop to get an idea of how gorgeous this base truly is!
