Support breast cancer research while showing your yarnie pride with this exclusive Knit for the Girls enamel pin by Shelli Can. 

The pin was designed for the 2023 Breast Cancer Research Fundraiser jointly chaired by Thread & Maple, the Grocery Girls, and Louie & Lola Yarns. 

$5USD/$6CAD of each sale will go to Knitted Knockers--an organization who provides comfy hand made prosthesis for free to breast cancer survivors. 

It’s hard to find a member of the tight-knit fiber community who hasn’t been impacted by breast cancer, be it personally or through a family member or friend. And we are determined to show support to this important cause through our annual fundraising drive to support researchers working on the amazing goal of zero deaths from breast cancer. 

Indulge in the comforting flavors of mulled wine and let them transport you to a world of relaxation and tranquility. Picture yourself cozying up by the fireplace, savoring a warm mug of fragrant mulled wine (or cider), while your knitting needles dance along the yarn. The subtle blend of spices, such as cinnamon and cloves, create a soothing aroma that envelops your senses and sets the mood for a truly enjoyable knitting experience.

Make traditional Glühwein easily and quickly with this carefully selected blend of spices. Transform a bottle of ordinary red wine into a warm, spicy and aromatic holiday beverage to share with family and friends.

What's Included:

• Mulling Spice Kit (100g | 4-6 Servings) in a glass jar by Bush Berry (a fellow Canadian small business)
• Muslin brew bag
• 12oz double-wall insulated glass mug

Instructions:

• Pour one bottle of sweet red wine (or six cups of apple cider) into a saucepan.
• Add 2-4 Tbsp of our spice blend. To keep the spices enclosed, use a muslin bag or enclosed strainer. You can also add half of a sliced orange (optional) and 1/2-1 cup of sugar.
• Stir the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Heat for another 30 minutes, but take care not to let it boil. You can add more sugar to taste.
• Remove the spice bag or strain the mixture, then serve hot.

Tips for Making the Perfect Mulled Beverage:

• To keep the mulled wine warm all day/night, warm it in a crockpot on low heat.
• If you desire, you can add sliced oranges and lemons, as well as cinnamon sticks.
• Always add sugar gradually, taste, and continue. You don't want it to be too sweet, but just right.
• Be careful not to let the alcohol boil, or it will lose its alcohol content.
• If you’re making it safe for kids to drink, replace the wine with apple cider to make a spiced apple cider.

Have fun creating some special memories this winter with the mulled wine mix!
