There are not many things better than holding a completed project in your hands made 100% by you. Sure, it’s easy to find cute machine-made knitted and crocheted goods, but there’s something special about knowing the time and effort that went into your own handcrafted bag, scarf, or sweater. A bad stitch or small mistake can even make it more lovable and unique. And once you’ve experienced the pride that comes with wearing your own work, you’re sure to be hooked on yarn crafts. So a monthly knitter’s subscription box is a great gift for anyone who already loves knitting or wants to try it out for the first time.Whether you are a beginner or seasoned knitter, there is a subscription box that will send you carefully chosen materials and patterns right to your door.

3. The Classics Society by Countess Ablaze
Have a project already in mind but still can’t find the perfect yarn for it? If so, Countess Ablaze wants to invite you on a trip to Greece and Rome with her monthly subscription box. As a scholar of ancient history, she fell in love with the designs and colors of the handicrafts of these areas. Inspired by their yarns, she has learned to skillfully hand dye her own yarn and now hopes to share with you her creations. Every month you will receive a gorgeous hand printed box holding a full skein of hand dyed yarn. They usually weigh in around 100g. And although inspired by ancient yarns, each skein is made of material that you are probably already familiar with (Countess Ablaze uses Bluefaced Leicester, Falkland Merino, and silk.) You’ll even occasionally get a high-quality Masham blend. Included with your brand new skein will be a booklet written by Countess Ablaze. You can read about the hand dying process in her essays as well as find recommended patterns and projects.As a surprise bonus, you might also receive a handmade gift like stitch markers!This knitting monthly subscription box is priced at £32 per month and based in the United Kingdom. They ship their boxes worldwide and around the 25th of every month.
