Introducing Overlander, our Secret Stash Club colourway for May 2026! Inspired by the idea that the journey matters just as much as the destination, this mossy, rustic green and earthy brown colourway feels straight out of a boreal forest. Overlander is meant to be a celebration of process, presence, and all the small steps that carry us forward. Hand dyed on our beloved Mohair Silk Sock base, this smooth, strong yarn offers beautiful stitch definition to socks, lace knitting, crochet, and weaving. It makes every stitch along the way feel like part of the adventure.

THE OVERLANDER COLOUR STORY
In all my years, I had never heard of the term “overlanding” but this year, my family and I have been planning some travel and I stumbled on this wonderful concept. Overlanding is the idea of self-reliant travel to a remote destination, but focusing on the journey rather than the destination itself. It might involve off-road driving or camping, but the concept is really about an individual developing the resilience and skills necessary for surviving a physically intensive journey and the mindset to be able to pause, be present, and fully enjoy the process.
While I don’t foresee myself hopping in a truck and driving myself across Canada (just yet), I absolutely love this idea of the journey being equally significant to the destination. It exactly describes my interest in “process over product” and once I discovered the word for it, I’m obsessed with it.


Our “Overlander” colourway is meant to feature mossy, rustic greens and browns, like you’d find if you were wandering a boreal forest. My hope is that you’ll enjoy every stitch along the way as you create something with this gorgeous, earthy colourway.
PROJECT IDEAS
The yarn base featured for May 2026 is SweetGeorgia Mohair Silk Sock. This yarn is smooth, sleek, and built to be strong. We love it for socks, of course, but it works equally well for lace knitting and weaving. This yarn gives fine stitch definition in both knitting and crochet, and the drape created in handwoven projects is really soft and silky.
For this Club sample, we knit it into the Cherry Lane Cowl to show off its performance in lace knitting. Read more about these samples at the project page.
