Dragon’s Trove - 24 day Advent
This years 24 day Yarn advent calendar theme is Dragon’s Trove! There will also be a weekly advent (4 x 100g skein) Dragon’s Trove option.
The 24 day advent will be available in different sizes (10g or 20g minis) and on different bases (Merino, Stellina, BFL, Highland wool, MCN, Baby alpaca on fingering weight yarn, and Merino or highland wool in DK). Each mini will be individually wrapped and some days will include a few little extra surprises (including something to sew). I also include a new shawl pattern, mystery sewing kit and an exclusively printed Tote bag. With the option to add an additional 100g skein for Christmas day (different from the 12 day Advent and the Woodland wonders sock set). Colourways will be mid tones and pale colours (see inspiration image above) and designed especially for the advent. Colours will not be based on Christmas but the Dragon’s Trove theme. Pre-ordered Advents will be dispatched in October to allow plenty of time to arrive before December.
Dragon’s Trove - Weekly Advent
In the same theme as the Dragon’s Trove 24 day advent, I am also offering a weekly advent. Where you will receive 4 x 100g skeins individually wrapped. The yarns will be dyed in similar colour to the inspiration image, but the actually colourways will be different from the colours in the 24 day advent and sock set alternative. The colours are designed to work well together in a project like a shawl, cardigan or jumper. These yarns will be available on different bases (Merino, Stellina, BFL, MCN, Alpaca, Highland wool on fingering weight yarn, and Merino or highland wool in DK). There will not be a pattern included in this weekly advent. Each package will include a little extra like a stitch markers. Pre-ordered kits will be dispatched mid October to allow plenty of time to arrive before December. 
12 day advent - Dragonfly theme
I have decided to do a separate 12 day advent this year for people to open on the 12 days preceding Christmas. The theme will be Dragomfly. The yarns will all be dyed in blues and purples inspired by the image above.
They are available in different sizes (10g or 20g minis) and on different bases (Merino, Stellina, BFL, MCN, Baby Alpaca, Highland wool on fingering weight yarn, and Merino or highland wool in DK). Each mini will be individually wrapped and some days will include a few little extra surprises (although not as many as in the 24 day advent). It will also include a knitting pattern for a pair of mittens and an exclusively printed drawstring bag with the Dragonfly theme. With the option to add an additional 100g skein (different from the 24 day Advent and sock set). Pre-ordered Advents will be dispatched in mid October to allow plenty of time to arrive before December.
Project bag and yarn sock set alternative - Dragonfly Theme
With the same Dragonfly theme, I decided to put together a special kit for making socks. This includes a 100g + 20g sock set with a choice of base (Merino, Stellina, BFL on fingering weight yarn or Merino DK). It will also include an exclusive project bag (medium sized) inspired by the Dragonfly theme, decorated with applique and free motion quilting with the choice of having a drawstring or zipped closure. The set will include a sock knitting pattern, Suitable for both fingering and DK weight yarn. Yarn colours will be different from the advent, so you may want to treat yourself to both kits. Pre-ordered kits will be dispatched mid October to allow plenty of time to arrive before December.
