UK Preorders will be dispatched at the start of November, overseas preorders will be dispatched mid-October.
This year's calendar makes a cowl or scarf and has a gradient of colours with geometric motifs. For the first time we are offering you a choice of colourways. We won't spoil the surprise by telling you too much but pick the description or inspiration photo that most appeals.
You get 24 Miniballs (10g/50m of JC Rennie 4ply pure wool) in different colours and a pattern to go with it that uses stranded knitting in the round. The unwrapped version means you can see all the colours at once, but ideal if you have a refillable calendar already. The colour order is included with the pattern. Each day you get a new colour and a new part of the pattern. The photo shows previous year's but this year will have different motifs and colours. Needles are not included - a 3.25mm 40cm circular or DPNs would be ideal which can be purchased separately. The hat uses a 3mm and 3.25mm 40cm circular and a longer circular or DPNs in the larger size for the crown. If you don't fancy making the pattern included we have several patterns that use 3-15 Miniballs that can be downloaded for free at the 'Free Patterns' section.
For more info on the yarn please see the 'Miniball' listing.
We also have a Kinross 4ply version in 12 colours. The Kinross is softer than the Miniballs when washed so if you find the JC Rennie yarn a little scratchy for wearing around the neck you may want to consider these options.
