Did you know that if you buy a kit from a store that I link to from my blog, you are supporting me and my work? When you make any purchase from a store after clicking one of my links, I get a small commission from the store based on your purchase, also if you buy something I did not link to. It doesn’t cost you anything, but really helps me. You can also buy your kit from any Scheepjes stockist on the planet; every store will be very happy with your support.

Golden Ticket
In 3 random kits something special has been hidden ….. a Golden Ticket! You heard that right, and just like with the famous Chocolate Factory, this golden ticket will also win you something amazing. Each Golden Ticket entitles the winner a chance to develop their own ‘Ubuntu Special Edition’ Our Tribe yarn and the winners will also receive a Scheepjes Studio Pack to help pick their colors.
Starting date and logistics
Ubuntu CAL will start on Wednesday, September 12th, 2018 and will run for 12 weeks till mid December 2018. A new pattern will be released every week in the Dutch and English Facebook groups as well as the Scheepjes website. The written patterns will be available in Dutch, Enlish (US & UK), German, and French. On top of all that I will release Dutch and English video tutorials with the pattern to help you in case you need it.
See you soon for the start of Ubuntu.
With love,
Esther

Can someone please give me the breakdown of how many balls of each color yarn are in the medium kit? I want to use different colors than the kit, and “31 balls of scheepjes stonewashed” doesn’t tell me how much of each alternate color I should buy.

The individual yarn info should be in the FB group soon

HI Allie – I just received my medium kit. There are seven colors of which you need 3 skeins/balls of yarn for each of six of the colors and then 13 skeins/balls of the seventh color. Hope that helps.

HI Esther – I have received my kit just today 🙂 I am so excited. I am a bit confused though as to how I will be able to obtain the weekly pattern as I do not have a Facebook account, and do not wish to have at this time. Am I reading correctly that the weekly patterns will also be released on the Scheepjes web site too? Do I just simply go to the web site on each release Wednesday to obtain the current pattern instructions?

Oh yes, yay, I have seen the introduction so good to know. Thank you so much for the information and for your wonderful instructional videos. I didn’t get to participate in the Sophie CAL, but I did finish my Sophie not too long ago. So I’m excited about being on time with this one 🙂

Can you tell me what the loom is please. it’s missing from the small package. What does it look like and what is it for? Excited to place an order.

the loom is not part of the small kit, it is only in the medium and large kit. It is a beading loom, used to make beaded bracelets. there is a bonus pattern at the end of the CAL which uses the loom.
