What can you expect from Amerikadvent?
You will receive four 100g skeins of sock wool, one for each Sunday in Advent. Each skein is individually packaged in a box.

How long can you order Amerikadvent?
The edition is limited, so once it's gone, it's gone.

Are there instructions or goodies?
We have a limited number of calendars with goodies. Since we make these ourselves and don't have enough for all calendars, these are also limited. You can order the calendar with or without a goodie.

What will the goodie be?
I can tell you that the goodie is sewn by my sister, so you may already have a little idea what it could be. However, as her capacity is limited, there will only be a limited number of calendars with goodies.

Is there a color gradient?
No, there are four individual colors, each inspired by a national park. However, since they all have a similar color scheme, they can also be used in a knitting or crochet project.

When will the Amerikadvent be shipped?
We will ship all boxes at the end of October/beginning of November. International orders will be shipped first.
