Welcome to the Giddy Yarns 2025 Advent Calendar.

This year's Advent Calendar is inspired by Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

The mood board gives you an idea of the colour theme for the advent. This year the advent won't be a pure fade as I'm planning to incorporate some gently vairgated colourways but it will progress through the colours story from one to the next in the same way a fade generally does.

This year you can read along with the advent calendar, I will provide an info sheet with details of which chapter/s to read each day. 

This year the advent will include 24 mini skeins each individually wrapped and labeled so you can keep the mystery alive throughout December all packed in a custom-printed natural cotton bag. There will also be a set of printed wooden stitch markers and a Little Women bookmark.   

I am offering the following bases (choose from the Yarn Base - Mini Skeins drop-down box):
