Yarn Clubs

I'm having a grand old time with the Mythos Yarn & Pattern collection. Dying special colors and designing shawlettes specifically for those colorways and yarns is a dream. Love it! I love it so much I can hardly wait for Mythos to be done so I can organize another one. Maybe I won't wait.... Maybe I will. I'll try and be good. Don't know if I'll succeed or not.

I've been thinking of maybe doing a hat & yarn club next. What do you think? Opinions? Would you be interested in a hat pattern & yarn club option or not so much? Stick to the shawlettes? Hats and shawlettes are my favorite items to design and knit, so doing either would make me happy. If I do hats I was thinking either 3 or 6 month club, yarns ranging from sport to bulky, all would be 1-skein projects. For the colors I thought maybe I'd offer an option to join for neutrals or colors. The neutral option would include browns & tans, greys, navy blue, and maybe muted earthy green. Colors that would match everything and make the menfolk happy. Colors would be, well, colorful. Anything goes for this option. Blues, purples, red, anything is possible. If you had these two color choices what would you pick? Personally I'd probably go neutrals for a hat club. Perhaps Earth Tones and Brights would be a better way to break up the colors? Now that I'm thinking about it that might make more sense.

A hat/yarn club would be fun, but I don't know that I would actually sign up for one. I have knit hats, shawls, and shawlettes for myself and I wear the shawlettes the most. I'm planning to jump in to your next shawlette & yarn club. :D
