What Is Big Up Box?

Big Up Box is a curated quarterly yarn subscription rooted in celebration, culture, and community.

“Big up” is Jamaican Patois for giving props—honoring excellence and celebrating creative voices. Every box uplifts dyers, designers, and fiber artists from communities historically overlooked in the fiber industry.

This is not charity.
This is collaboration.
This is paid, credited, celebrated creative work.

Every box is a shout-out in physical form.


What’s Inside Each Big Up Box

  • Hand-dyed yarn from a featured underrepresented dyer

  • Artist spotlight card (story, inspiration, and links)

  • Exclusive design or project suggestion

  • Surprise bonus item (stickers, notions, or extras)

  • A beautifully designed box celebrating color, culture, and creativity

Boxes ship quarterly to ensure thoughtful curation and fair pay for artists.


 

REFUND POLICY

No refunds. Please be sure you want to support this project before making a purchase.

Each box is curated to spotlight the talent of the featured dyers, designers, and makers.  

At this time, there is NO RETURN on your box. 

Make sure this is something you want prior to placing your order. 

We are working hard to provide you with high quality products and services and this takes time and investment. So, if you have any inkling of a doubt about a box, DO NOT PURCHASE. 

We only want to serve those who understand what we are doing with the Big Up Box, our core mission, and understand that this is not a typical yarn box where you get the same things in every box.

BIG UP BOX is a curated experience.

***If for some reason a refund is issued, the refund will NOT include fees we have to pay. Your refund will minus any processing fees we incurred.
