PLEASE READ FIRST BEFORE PURCHASING CALENDAR
----------------------------
EARTH – WIND – FIRE is the theme of this year’s advent calendar.
And we are very proud and happy Susanne Sommer a.k.a SOSU knits worked with us on an exclusive design especially for our calendar. The design is a secret of course – just one hint: it will be a shawl/wrap. And if you’re automatically thinking brioche when thinking of SOSU, you can rest assured that the pattern will include an alternative for non-brioche knitters, in case there is any in the design at all…
COLOURS:
Earth, Wind, Fire – these three elements inspired our colour combinations.
You can choose between these options:
Earth: main colour dark brown/black plus six new contrasting colourways corresponding with the theme “Earth”
Wind: main colour light grey plus six new contrasting colourways corresponding with the theme “Wind”
Fire: main colour light beige/grey plus six new contrasting colourways corresponding with the theme “Fire”
Additionally, we offer a fourth option called “Elements”, which includes colours of all three themes:
Elements => main colour light grey plus six contrasting colourways corresponding with the themes “Earth”, “Wind” & “Fire"
YARN:
The main yarn is „Dufte Lace“, our fluffy and super soft Suri Alpaca made from 74 % Alpaca and 26 % Silk (300 m / 50 gr).
You will also get a total of 21 Minifüchse Single, mini skeins of our single-ply base made from 100 % Merino (73 m / 20 gr). Three of these come in the main colour, the other 18 consist of 6 brandnew colourways exclusively designed for the calendar.
ATTENTION => If you don't like Suri Alpaca, you can ask for substituting it with a skein of Steppke Single (100 % Merino single-ply; same base as the minis) by sending an E-Mail to info@fridafuchs.com.
The 22 skeins of yarn will come together with two high quality knit-related goodies. All 24 pieces will be wrapped nicely.
PATTERN:
You will get the pattern as pdf-document attached to an E-Mail at the end of November. This document will have 24 pages, one for each day – and it is up to you if you knit it step-by-step, day-by-day or all at once. The pattern has no pictures and no schematics – so you can make it your own advent MKAL and find a little surprise every morning. There will be a second document with a picture and schematics – and if you want a spoiler, just open this document, too.
Please use the hashtags #SOSUadventMKAL2020 and #fridafuchsadvent2020 when posting in social media – this way SOSU and we can find and admire your projects and watch your progress.
