The Wooly Caterpillar

09/12/2026

We’re Playing Favorites. 💕🩵

This Saturday, we’re kicking off a brand-new collection built around one very simple question:

What color do you reach for over and over again?

For the next few weeks, we’re turning our family’s favorite colors into yarn—and first up are Vicky & Brian.

💕 Playing Favorites: Vicky — a warm, happy coral that somehow follows me everywhere. Sweatshirts, water bottles, yarn…apparently I have a type.

🩵 Playing Favorites: Brian — a soft slate blue with quiet strength. It’s the color B reaches for in flannels and everyday wearables again and again: strong, soft, dependable…just like him.

And here’s what makes Playing Favorites extra fun: these colors are DYED TO ORDER. 🎉

Choose your favorite color.
Choose your yarn base.
Choose exactly how many skeins your project needs.

One skein? Perfect.
Sweater quantity? Absolutely.

✨ Subscriber Early Access: 8 AM Eastern
✨ Public Launch: 3 PM Eastern
✨ Saturday, September 12

Because these are dyed especially for you, please allow 7–10 days for us to work our dye-pot magic.

So…the only real question is:

Are you Team Vicky 💕 or Team Brian 🩵?

Or are we all just going to admit now that we need both? 😂

🧶 Playing Favorites drops Saturday at 3 PM ET at woolycaterpillar.com

We have discovered a problem. 👀

Apparently, we each have a color that follows us home.

It shows up in our clothes.
Our mugs.
Our water bottles.
Our random everyday stuff.

At some point we had to admit it:

We definitely have a type. 😂

So naturally…we turned those favorite colors into yarn.

This Saturday, we’re kicking off Playing Favorites, a brand-new dye-to-order collection inspired by the colors our family reaches for again and again.

First two favorites?
You’ll meet them on Saturday. 💕🩵

✨ Subscribers get first dibs at 8 AM Eastern
✨ Public launch at 3 PM Eastern

And yes…there will be more family evidence coming over the next few weeks.

✨ We gave The Wooly Caterpillar a little glow-up. ✨

Our website has been refreshed, reorganized, and de-cluttered to make yarn shopping a whole lot easier.

🧶 Cleaner product listings
🔎 Easier-to-find yarn details
🎨 Separate shops for Saturday’s Secret Skeins, Bundles & The Reserve Collection
🏷️ A dedicated Sale section
🎁 Odds & Ends for all the useful little extras
💻 Less scrolling through technical stuff when all you really want to do is admire the yarn 😆

You’ll still find all the fiber content, yardage, gauge, and base information you need — it’s just tucked into a much tidier spot so the COLOR gets to have its moment first.

Basically: fewer walls of text. More yarn.

Come poke around, explore the new layout, and tell us what you think. And if you spot something confusing, weird, or hiding where it shouldn’t be, we genuinely want to know. 💛

🍁 Okay, Leaf Peepers… HERE IT IS. 🍁

We teased the view. Now you get the yarn. 👀🧶

Introducing Leaf Peeper Season — our newest Color Story, inspired by that brief, glorious stretch of Vermont autumn when the mountains light up, the backroads become irresistible, and every turn feels like it deserves its own postcard.

This story has three colorways:

🌤️ Under October Skies — soft cream and shifting blues inspired by those impossibly clear fall days when the sky seems to go on forever.

🌉 Backroad Crossing — weathered neutrals, cool grays, and blue-gray tones inspired by the little treasures you find when you leave the main road and go exploring.

🍁 The Turn — the moment Vermont changes. Fresh green giving way to moss, rust, orange, and blazing autumn color.

Together, they’re Leaf Peeper Season — the whole Vermont fall experience, minus the traffic jam behind someone going 23 mph because they spotted a particularly nice maple tree. 😂🍂

Drops this Saturday at 3PM EDT.

Now we need to know…

👇 Which one are you grabbing first: Under October Skies, Backroad Crossing, or The Turn?

🍁 Tag your favorite leaf-peeping partner.
🚗 Send this to the person who will always take the scenic route.
🧶 And save it for Saturday because these dye pots have been BUSY.

🍁 If you know Vermont, you know what’s coming. 🍁

There’s a moment every year when the Green Mountains decide they’ve had enough of green.

The mornings get cooler.
The roads get prettier.
The covered bridges somehow become even more photogenic.
And suddenly there are cars pulled over everywhere. 😂📸

Around here, we call it Leaf Peeper Season.

And this week…we put it in the dye pots. 🧶🍂

Our newest Color Story is inspired by the turn itself—brilliant autumn hillsides, wandering Vermont backroads, old covered bridges, and those impossibly blue October skies.

We’re not showing you the yarn just yet. 👀

But we will tell you this:

🍁 Leaf Peeper Season is coming.
🧶 And you’re going to want to see what came out of those dye pots.

Yarn reveal coming soon.

👇 Tell us: Are you a leaf peeper…or a Vermonter who knows the backroads to avoid them? 😂

And TAG the person who would happily spend an entire fall day driving around Vermont looking at leaves. 🍂🚗
