This snuggly scarf is just the thing to get you in the festive spirit - just knit a little each day and by Christmas it’ll be ready to wear!

We love the idea of advent patterns which grow as you get closer to Christmas and mark off each day. We’re going to be doing a knit-along for this pattern online, so log on to Ravelry, Facebook and Twitter to join in the fun!

Each day (except 1st, 23rd and 24th) is represented by a different mosaic pattern. Mosaic knitting is an easy way to knit colourwork, as only one strand of yarn is held at a time.

From Michaela:
I love Christmas, so much so, in my second year of University I put up my Christmas tree in November. I love the idea of an hour a day from my gift knitting and working on something for myself, something special enough to wear on Christmas Day. My advent calender scarf will be under the tree addressed to me!

Yarn required: 2 skeins in each shade, Velvet Bilberry (MC) & Undyed (CC).
Notions: 2 stitch markers
