Looking for a little surprise in your creative time?
This mystery box includes 2 x 100g skeins of my Egret yarn base, a soft, non-superwash Australian merino. Each skein is hand-dyed here in the Adelaide Hills in thoughtful, layered colour.
You’ll receive two different colourways (for example, one pink and one blue) so there’s variety and inspiration straight out of the box. The yarn you receive could be a past club colourway, a one-of-a-kind experiment, or a classic Augustbird favourite.
All skeins are selected at random and wrapped individually, so you won’t know what you’re getting until you open them. It’s a gentle surprise, and a chance to explore something new.
To make things extra lovely, I’ve also included a free Earth Greetings card as a small gift to brighten your making. Each one features the work of an Australian artist and is printed on 100% recycled paper.
The yarn alone is worth between $100 and $124, depending on the colourways you receive. This box is priced at $96, offering beautiful value and a surprise-filled experience.
Sending it as a gift? Add a personal note at checkout and I’ll handwrite it on a sweet card for you.
Yarn is 5ply sport weight (Egret base), 100% Australian merino, non-superwash. Colours are selected at random and will always be two different colourways.
Mindfully hand-dyed in Australia.

Earth Kindness
I do my best to make thoughtful choices that are kinder to the planet. My aim is to be as gentle and mindful as possible with my creations, from the yarn itself to the way it arrives at your door.
Yarn
This yarn is made from locally grown Australian merino from White Gum Wool, an ethical and sustainable farm in Tasmania. I use non-toxic, low-impact dyes to add soft, lasting colour to my yarn without compromising the environment or my own health.
Packaging
I take care to make my packaging as kind to the earth as possible. My swing tags are made in Australia from 100% recycled paper and tied with string. Your yarn will be wrapped in 100% recycled tissue paper and sent in either a home compostable mailer or a 100% recycled, Australian-made cardboard box.
