Yarn Advent Calendar 2025 - Hand Dyed Yarn

This years Advent calendar will be made up of a beautifully wrapped parcel to open each of the 4 Sundays in Advent and one on Christmas Eve or Christmas day depending on your tradition. (5 individually wrapped packages in total in one larger box)

This year you can chose your yarn base and colour inspiration.

The colour inspiration to choose between are Neutrals/Earth Tones, Pastel / Muted tones or Brights/Jewel Colours.

The yarn bases are Trollfjord Sock or Mohair Mist or Suri Squish. You also have the option to combine these so if you want to add Suri Squish and Trollfjord sock in one calendar you can without paying for a double set of extras. 

All parcels will be beautifully packaged with extras included as surprises. 

Free shipping is included in the listing price.

The advent calendar will be shipped out to you over the last week of October and the first week of November, so that you are guaranteed to receive your advent calendars in good time no matter where you live!

 A large part of the festive holiday season is the build up to it and this years calendar will be inspired by things that bring us joy and happiness and nostalgia at this time of year.  I hope that you will be transported to a happy, joy-filled, magical place filled with happy memories as you use these skeins together in a single project or spread them out over several projects.

All skeins are hand dyed exclusively for these 2025 Advent calendar and will not be repeatable, nor will they appear in the webshop at a later date. They are genuine once-off never to be repeated colourways.

Yarn Base Information:

Yarn Base : Trollfjord sock

Trollfjord sock base is durable enough for socks yet soft enough to use for shawls, hats, mittens and garments or even children´s clothing. It contains non-superwash wool but you can still machine wash on a wool program at 30 degrees with a detergent specifically for wool. However I always prefer to handwash my knitwear in general. Dry flat and do not tumble dry. I have used professional acid dyes and thoroughly washed and rinsed this yarn with a gentle wool wash detergent. I do however recommend washing items separately for the first couple of washes as very minimal colour bleeding may occur. This base is produced in the EU  and contains Norwegian wool.
