Yarn Advent Calendar – 24 x Mini Skeins
This year the advent calendar is Rock & Roll inspired by gemstones, jewels, and minerals!
24 mini skeins of hand-dyed wool (and some extra treats) with bespoke advent box. Fantastic for all kinds of projects, the only limit is your imagination. People have made blankets, socks, sweaters, and even a dress. This year is a fade by popular demand, so the colours will flow into one another.
How much yarn?
For all 24 minis the total yardage for each base is approximately as follows:
BFL Sock 2040m/2230yds
BFL DK 1032m/1128yds
Yak Merino Silk 1750m/1913yds
NEW for 2022
Choose to add on a beautiful hand-sewn drawstring project bag large enough to store all your minis in for your project and/or a full 100g skein to open as an extra present on Christmas Day (will not be made to *match* the minis but will be in the same theme).
What is a “mini skein”
Essentially a miniature ball of wool, presented in a twisted shape, loved by knitters and crocheters alike, for their variety of uses in crafting projects.
Need some inspiration? We put together some project ideas with what to make with mini skeins.
