2025 Mystery Yarn Advent Calendar Naturally Dyed Sock Yarn 10g daily CAL or KAL
$112.09
The 2025 Mystery Mini-Skein Advent Calendar is available to purchase and will showcase my natural dye range. Themed 'Wooly Wonders', the Despatch date is at the end of October, with delivery in November ready to start on December 1st.
This advent includes:
- 25 x 10g merino blend sock yarn mini skeins. 1 per day (10g = 42.5m).
- a custom printed tote bag with an original 'Wooly Wonders' design, that can store your advent and be reused for future projects.
- easily recyclable packaging.
- and maybe a few extra knitting notion treats!
- tracked postage within U.K.
- The option of a crochet-a-long or knit-a-long pattern designed for the advent yarns. This will be modular consisting of one easy block per day which can be assembled into a lap/baby blanket, wall hanging or tote bag.
- despatch date 31st October 2025.
- the option to purchase 150g cream/undyed sock yarn on the same base for the Crochet/Knit-A-Long.
In total you will receive 250g hand dyed sock weight yarn which equates to 1062m of yarn (10g/42.5m per day). This can be used for the accompanying pattern or with any other sock/4ply weight Advent make-a-long patterns.
Each hand dyed mini skein will be coloured using natural dyes. The final colours will differ from the example shown in the images above, but the collection will showcase the wide range of colours achievable with plant/natural dyes. Each skein will be labelled with the dye used and includes some information about that dyestuff.
Note: All skeins are mordanted for light and wash fastness. They may fade/change slightly over time but this will not be very noticeable - think medieval tapestries fading over 100's of years. This is normal for natural colours, some would say it is part of their charm!
The advent will use 100% sustainable & recyclable packaging and labelling. Each mini skein will be in numbered and recycled (& recyclable) paper bags, and come to you inside a reusable cotton tote bag, printed with an original 'Wooly Wonders' design. Postal packaging will be recycled content (& recyclable) kraft mailers.
Each days numbered paper bag will contain 1 x merino blend sock weight mini skein (75% merino, 25% nylon), and possibly other treats such as an original design stitch marker.
needle size used will be 3mm.
The price includes Evri Tracked postage within the UK. Postage outside the UK is International Tracked service and incurs an extra cost. These may take longer to reach you (2-3 weeks estimated), hence the October despatch date.
