Sip & Stitch Bundle: Vermont Vice
Out of stock
This limited-edition Sip & Stitch Bundle is your invitation to a perfectly Vermont summer afternoon—just add a porch and a breeze. It includes two skeins of sport-weight yarn curated to pair beautifully in the Murano Squares Bandana by Susan Ashcroft (pattern not included). Light, quick to knit, and endlessly wearable, it’s the kind of project that looks great with sandals and an iced tea in hand.
And best of all? You save 10% when you purchase the bundle.
Each bundle includes:
-
1 skein of Making Tracks LITE in Vermont Vice
-
1 skein of Roots LITE in Peony
-
1 oz bag of Ode to Vermont loose leaf tea from Free Verse Farm in Chelsea, VT
-
1 unbleached muslin reusable tea bag
-

✨ Please note: Each skein of our Making Tracks yarn is one-of-a-kind—your skein may vary from those photographed. Check out the individual product listing to see examples of the range, and feel free to leave a note at checkout if you have a particular look in mind.
We recommend trying the tea hot or iced—maybe even steeped in a sunny windowsill! By purchasing this bundle, you’re also supporting a small herb farm just over the hill. Get to know Free Verse Farm and hear from the farmers themselves by coming along on our Mill Field Trip.
🍵 About the tea: Ode to Vermont is a flavorful herbal blend with notes of fruit, mint, and spice—delicious hot or iced with a bit of honey.
Ingredients (all organic): Tulsi, Catnip, Anise-Hyssop, Lemon Balm, Mint, Raspberry Leaf, Red Clover.
🌞 A note from our sample knitters: You may want to cast on the smaller version of the bandana (29 stitches) or plan to bind off a few rows early if you’re making the larger size—we had one sample that came close to running out.
📸 Amanda is wearing the Vermont Vice combo (this one!), and Peggy is wearing the Hay Day combo.
Care
Wet-Blocking Care Instructions
Your project isn’t truly complete until it’s had its first wash! Here’s how to help our yarns reach their full potential:
- Fill a sink or basin with cold water.
- Add a small amount of no-rinse wool wash.
- Submerge your knitted item, gently squeezing out any air bubbles to ensure it stays fully underwater.
- Soak for up to 10 minutes. While our dyes are tested for colorfastness, some dyes are notoriously difficult to set and may release a small amount of excess color. Using cold water, gentle wool wash, and a short soak will help prevent color redeposit on light-colored fibers.
- Drain the water.
- Gently lift your knitted item from the water and remove excess moisture by rolling it between clean, dry towels with light pressure.
- Lay flat and shape to air dry.
For projects with contrasting colors, we recommend steam blocking to avoid any color transfer.
Real Wool, Naturally Beautiful
We believe in the authenticity of wool. Our yarns are crafted from 100% wool, with no superwash treatments, preserving the natural characteristics that make each skein unique. Enjoy the feel of real wool that’s soft, durable, and environmentally friendly.
