Weave Quarterly is an ongoing subscription series that connects weavers with fiber artists, offering a window into their studio practices through exclusive patterns and curated content. Subscribers will embark on a new project each quarter. Each box includes yarn, a digital pattern, and bonus content from the artist, which may include in-depth exploration of their inspiration and processes, relevant tutorials, or potential coordinating project ideas for using leftover yarn.
In 2025, Mariah Xu will lead us through a series that transforms the flat grid of warp and weft into texture, structure, and dimension. These four projects are a meditation on a different element of tactility—bunching and scrunching, contrasting textures, unexpected visual effects and more, thanks to Mariah's deft combination of fibers and weave structures with varying properties.
Each quarter's pattern will weave a pair of scarves or shawls from the same warp, but differentiated by the treadling to keep you engaged and experimenting. This is a perfect warp-once-weave-twice opportunity.
The Weave Quarterly projects will vary in size, but never exceed 24” in weaving width. Most of the patterns require a 10 or 12 dent reed. You will also need a couple of boat shuttles and a pack of bobbins.
When you sign up, you will be charged $135 + shipping. You will receive the patterns via email, and the corresponding yarn will arrive in the mail. After you sign up, boxes bill quarterly on the 10th of January, April, July, and October. Your quarterly charges will begin on the month listed above after you sign up (please note if you sign up in the first 9 days of a quarterly billing cycle you will be charged at signup and not again until the following billing cycle). Yarn will ship within a few days of your card being charged.
Each box is filled with a generous selection of our in-house yarn lines (Duet, Mallo, Beam, Array, Sero, and Ode). We design our in-house yarn lines especially for weavers from 100% natural fibers. Throughout the course of your subscription, you can expect to receive yarn that is cotton, wool, linen, silk, and alpaca. You will have enough yarn to complete your project, and often have some leftover for future projects.
We charge $11.50 for shipping in the Continental US. For pricing to Alaska, Hawaii, and internationally, just add the box to checkout, click on the cart page, scroll down, and enter your zip code to calculate the shipping.

I have only been weaving for a couple years and I loved the idea of the subscription box. I am on my second project and I’m being challenged because I have a countermarch loom and it’s a double weave but I’m thrilled for being pushed into an area that I have to learn something new. My first project turned out even more beautiful than I anticipated and it also taught me new skills. I am loving this.
It is my first quarterly trial. I decided to start this program to weave with patterns and colors that other's choice.
Seed pot towel is very pretty.
I wove 1st one in original color and 2nd one,I changed pattern weft to Mallo steel which I had in my stash.
So much fun learning new techniques. The yarns, the colors, the whole project is so worth it.
I do not like to be negative, especially since I appreciate Gist's excellent customer service and the design/patterns from this subscription. However, the price is extremely high for a minimal product. I just finished the second box in the alternate colorway and although it is cute, the colors from neither of the available colorways works for me. The goldenrod yellow Beam is too intense for the lavender Mallo stub yarn. I would really enjoy having the patterns available so we can choose our own yarn. I now have a 145 dollar tiny rug that I can't use- so I am thinking of maybe a baby changing mat for my soon to be grandbaby? - but with the longer floats, I am not sure it will hold up long. I have ordered extensively from Gist and will continue to do so, but although fun, this is clearly an very indulgent boutique purchase.
Having such beautiful yarns and patterns to inspire my practice, and specific instruction from the weavers who designed each piece is a treat. I needed something to give me a little push and these boxes do just that.
