Please make sure to read all informations below before ordering.

PRE-ORDER / HOW DOES IT WORK?:

This is a pre-order listing for a Christmas Calendar type of Advent.
You will order today, and receive a carefully crafted Advent Calendar in November of 2025, where everyday during December, you can open and reveal a new 20gr mini skein, as well as a full 100gr skein on Christmas day!
Other little surprises will also be included in the advent, to make the wait for Christmas even more enticing!

Note: This advent is being listed early, as I usually do each year, due to my many other role in life (2 other jobs + toddler mom). These advents usually take me a lot of time to accomplish and I want to pay attention and craft every little details properly, and prefer to do so at a slower pace year round.

THEME:

The theme for this advent calendar is Studio Ghibli movies, and need I say more? Each of these beautiful animated movies are renown for their ethereal colour palette. Many of us grew up cradled by those soft and tender watercolour like palette displayed through our old analog TV, embarking on a dream like journey through the magical storylines and stunning painted images.
There is 22 official movies in the Studio Ghibli house, but there is some other movies released prior to it's foundation or other short films which will round up this collection to 25 total new colours

This advent will be designed as a fade, and although there will still be some tonals and semi solid included, you can expect a more variegated fade this time around! Bringing back some contrast and speckles so that I can accurately give a unique spin and look to each mini and it's corresponding movie.

Scroll down the page to take a look at the theme photos for an idea of some of the creations that will come to life. Each mini will be unique and stand alone based on it's dedicated photography.

DIFFERENT BASE, DIFFERENT RESULTS:

Each fibre blend is different and therefore takes the colour in a different way. SuperWash yarns (SW) will be more vibrant than Non-SuperWash (NSW). 
The difference are very subtle, mostly in vibrance of colours, but please take it into account before ordering! Each base is different, and each batch is, even with the perfect recipe :)
