yarn support & inclusivity

Inclusivity

It is important to me that all makers feel supported here in this space - no matter what size you are. I am proud to offer a 15% discount using code SIZE-INCLUSIVE-15 to customers ordering 7+ skeins for a garment project - regardless of base or colorway. I rely on the honor system for this discount code, and I ask that you please only use this discount code if you consider yourself plus size and would benefit from this discount, and check out separately if shopping for additional, non-garment projects. For example, if you are knitting a size M for an oversized top and need 7+ skeins for a project, please refrain from using this discount. However, if you are knitting a plus size top that needs 7+ skeins for a project, this discount exists to help shoulder the additional cost of skeins needed for you to have the perfect fit for your size. It isn't fair for garments to cost you more!

Please note I am choosing to offer this in good faith - and it may not always be perfect in every circumstance! Larger format projects like blankets are not to be used with this discount, since fit is not an issue.

Yarn support for designers (and their testers)

I absolutely LOVE to collaborate with designers on their upcoming makes! If you would like to design something using Zeezee Textiles yarn, I would be happy to fully sponsor your yarn materials and shipping, for up to one sample! Please send an email to me with the following, or as much as you may have mapped out thus far:

  • A sketch, swatch, or concept of your design
  • A link to your previous designs, if we are new to working together
  • Your estimated base and yardage requirements you will be needing, and the colorway(s) you wish to use
  • A general estimate of your pattern release date, so that I can plan my schedule for potential in-stock or pre-order needs (often times, makers want the exact yarn and colorway the pattern is released in, and I would love to offer this!)
  • If you would prefer your testers to also use this same yarn and colorway, or other combos from me (I will then extend kit offers to your testers at 25% off)
  • We can suss through any additional details together as we work through the process, like kit releases, any exciting social media opportunities, promoting your design and my yarn together, etcetera
  • Please note I can only offer support for 1 sample - should you wish to create more than 1 sample (in a different size or colorway, for example) yarn will be available to you at a 25% discount!

Additionally, I require the following:

  • Your pattern, if a garment, be inclusively sized to fit bodies over 62" at the bust, including the recommended positive ease from your design
  • You have published at least 1 pattern before the one you'd like yarn support on
  • Your pattern will be sold on at least 1 other platform than Ravelry, due to inclusivity and accessibility concerns

For yarn support for your testers, I have adjusted what I am able to support as a small business since these can cost a lot of time and materials to dye up! I can offer a 20% discount to testers for the following:

  • the specific colorway developed for, or specific to, the design being tested
  • support for the specific base the design is in, if it is a non-generic base (Heritage DK, for example, would qualify - but not a classic 4ply DK, since this is more general and can be accessed across many dyers and price points) 

These requests will also be assessed with sensitivity to my own schedule and materials, so please understand I may not be able to take on 100% of requests based on inventory requirements and my availability!

I look forward to getting to work with new faces and designers, and hope to hear from you!
