Magical Mohair Edition
Hey Fiber Friends,
I know, it’s been a minute! Life happened, creativity ebbed and flowed, and I needed a little pause. But I’ve missed this space, and I’ve missed YOU! So, I’m dipping my toes (or should I say needles & hooks?) back into the Vanrey Knit List, and coming to your inbox today with all the fiber goodness you know and love.
Let’s talk mohair. That dreamy, airy, halo glow of magic that makes any knit or crochet piece feel straight-up ethereal. This week, I’m sharing my favorite mohair friendly patterns, yarns and fashion inspo that will make you swoon! AND because I can’t resist giving you a peek at some things I’ve been working on, you’ll find some BTS in there too! I’m so excited! They are going to be light as a cloud and a whole lot of fun! I’m just so happy to be back at it!!
I’d love to hear from you, what have you been working on lately?
It's the VanRey (Kn)IT LIST, Magical Mohair Edition!

✨Behind the Scenes at VRK✨
Things have been buzzing behind the scenes and I finally get to share a little sneak peek of what’s coming!
First up, I’m beyond excited to be collaborating with Fiber Genie on her very first yarn Advent calendar! 🎉 If you know Fiber Genie, you know her love for ABBA runs deep; think dazzling disco, dreamy melodies, and all the feel-good vibes. This advent, featuring her squishy SW Merino DK base and a brand-new Vanrey Knits pattern, will be infused with that very same magic!
Pre-orders open April 16th, and boxes will ship at the end of November 2025, just in time for the holidays. 🎁✨
But that’s not all, I’ve also been working on something major behind the scenes with a big box company, creating knitting and crochet classes + content! I can’t spill the full details just yet, but trust me, it’s going to be fabulous, and I can’t wait to share more when the time is right!
Stay tuned—so many exciting things are on the way! 💖
As always, thank you for being here and for being a part of this beautiful making community. I love you dear friends and wish you the most beautiful day.
Until next time…
