Sarah has been working on a free advent pattern collection for the holidays this year! She has designed a bunting pattern with motifs inspired by the Robert Frost poem Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening on one side and an assortment of plaids on the reverse.
We will be releasing a bunting pattern a day, for 12 days, for the winter solstice. Starting on December 9th and ending on December 21st. The patterns also include a blank template. Sarah has also made a charted alphabet to go with the pattern.
Made with our Foss sport weight yarn using 65 yds (59.5 m) of each color. One of our Polkagris yarns sets will make 1 bunting. This is the perfect pattern to make use of yarn advent calendars or stashbusting as each bunting uses under 100 yds of each color.
Dates
We will be running a KAL starting on the 9th of December and ending on the 1st of January.

This December Meaghan is doing a free embroidery pattern advent calendar. Each day of December she will be releasing a free digital download of a pattern for a 2 1/2 inch hoop to make a cute ornament or holiday decoration. These are great for stash-busting but if you would like specific recommendations for materials see below.
Hoops:
Fabric:
Thread:
Needles: If you use our Estabrook yarn or a similar sport/ DK yarn i would recommend a size 20 chenille needle. Or any needle that suits the thread you picked out.
Finishing: To hang the hoops I picked up some vintage silk ribbon in holiday colors, but you could use any 3/8 inch ribbon. Additionally you can cover the back of your hoop with a circle of felt attached with hot glue to give them a more finished look or leave them open if you want to try new designs next year!
I hope you will join us this December for our festive stitching! The first pattern will be released on Thursday December 1st, but if you are a newsletter subscriber you may find you get it a couple of days early! You can sign up for our newsletter at the bottom of our home page. Once the patterns start to go live you will be able to find them here.
Happy Stitching!
