Questions you might have
What's in the kit?
You'll get 1 skein of each of the 7 colors in the combination you choose. A US 10 (6 mm) 24” circular needle and a darning needle aren't included.
How do I get the pattern?
The Softly Striped Baby Blanket pattern is free. Add the pattern to your cart for a free PDF, or email hello@eweewe.com with your order number and I'll send it right over.
Is this kit right for me?
This is a Level 1 project. If you can knit and purl, you have what you need. The blanket is garter stitch in color stripes, and a slipped edge stitch keeps the sides tidy. If you get stuck, our Knitting Knowledge tutorials and the Secret Society of Knitters community are here to help, or you can email me.
Will the colors look like the photo?
Screens vary, so a color can look a little different in person. If you're unsure about a combination, email me before you order and I'll help you choose.
Should I order extra yarn?
The kit has the amount of yarn the pattern calls for. If you'd like to make the blanket larger, it's better to order extra now. Dye lots vary from batch to batch, and I can't always match a specific lot later.
How do I care for my finished blanket?
Easy! Our yarn is superwash merino, so you can machine wash your blanket in cool water and tumble dry on low. All of our yarns are 100% fine superwash merino wool from Australia, spun and dyed in Italy.
How soon will my order ship, and what does it cost?
I pack and ship orders within one business day, six days a week including Saturday mornings. They go out by USPS Ground Advantage from Oceanside, California, so delivery time depends on USPS and where you live. Shipping is free on US orders over $75 and $5 on smaller US orders, and you'll get a tracking email when your order is on its way.
Can I return my yarn?
Unused items in their original condition can be returned within 30 days of receiving them. Email hello@eweewe.com with your name and order number and I'll take care of you. If something arrives damaged or isn't what you ordered, let me know right away and I'll make it right.
Let customers speak for us
Making for Halloween. The colors pop. The yarn feels so soft.
An oops. Plus usually when I buy EWE EWE bundles the pattern is included, not this time.
this Wooly Worsted MerinoYarn is beautiful and extremely soft to the touch. The color is rich and true and will make an amazing looking sweater. I can’t wait to start using this yarn then actually wearing it. I highly recommend this yarn from Ewe Ewe Yarns!
Where is the link to download the hat
The yarn is wonderful and customer service is top notch.
There will be knots in some skeins which is normal. I don't know if this will pill or not until it's knit into something but it's the nature of Merino to do so but that doesn't bother me. I only needed 3 skeins but the price was so good that I bought 5. It's super soft like you would expect and the proper thickness for a fingering sock weight. I split the skeins into (6) 56 to 58 gram skeins and dyed up 5. They took the dye nicely and I am pleased with my results. My yarn was packaged well/nicely and shipped VERY quickly and arrived at my doorstep safe and sound. I would purchase this again.
I ordered the baa bag bulky for my hat pattern, that I also bought from Eye eye yarns. I love this yarn !! It is so nice to work with. It is also soo soft!
I really like the pattern. Beautiful!
I love these little scissors. They fit perfectly with all of my other knitting accessories in my tote and they even have their own case. They are sharp and easy to use!
I am blown away by the feel and quality of this yarn at such a Great price!!!
Love this yarn. Sooo soft and the color is beautiful
Temperature Tee Yarn Kit
I’ve been waiting for the perfect yarn to start on my new wearable and the perfect pattern to do it with. Ewe Ewe has provided both. Not to mention the care and thoughtfulness of Heather, the owner , which makes it all the more fabulous!
I was open, when I ordered more yarn, to receive a different dye lot. I just figured for this children’s sweater I could make it work. Imagine my delight when I received the same dye lot! And quickly! I’m charged and almost finished!
I absolutely love this yarn. I had to buy more to make a hat and scarf!
