What is a reusable fabric calendar?

This is what our Advents are famous for! Basically, it’s the wrapping for the mini skeins. It’s handmade. There a picture on the listing of last year’s. We are trying to be eco friendly by giving you a 100% cotton fabric reusable calendar with pockets! Handmade numbers let you know which pocket to open on which day.

Enjoy advent knitting and the Christmas season with our beautifully handmade, 100% cotton Advent Calendar. The fabric calendars, made by Dave, have little pockets individually numbered to let you know which mini skein to open each day. It’s not just the home for the delightful little mini skeins, it’s part of the entire experience!

Reuse the fabric calendar next year and fill it with sweets or surprises making every Christmas a shared adventure in anticipation and joy. Imagine refilling it with treats for your kids, creating a countdown filled with joy, or exchanging it with your spouse to discover new goodies each day.

Embark on a monthly adventure with the Storyteller Stitchery Society, where the worlds of storytelling and crafting blend seamlessly, creating a cozy oasis of inspiration, creativity, and community.

For those who delight in the intersection of fandom and fiber arts, prepare to be enchanted! As a knitter and crocheter with a passion for tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, I’ve created a unique collection merging these worlds.

Like many makers, I often found myself juggling multiple projects, patterns, needles and notions. But being a fan of a Dungeons and Dragons-like world (Pathfinder, for anyone who is keeping track!) I longed for accessories that allowed me to flaunt both of my nerd-doms at once. Mundane storage wasn’t going to cut it for this crafty adventurer!

Drawing inspiration from iconic fantasy elements, the initial release for this fantasy line contains two prints — one featuring graceful soaring dragons, and another showcasing all things DnD — dice, swords, rune, coins, and more!

Each print is available in the following products:
Project Bags – Spacious interiors to accommodate even the grandest quests
Pattern Pockets – Easily access spellbooks of stitches
Yarn Sleeves – Wrangle errant skeins with these clever creations

Crafted with care using machine washable fabric, these bags and accessories are ready to withstand endless adventures. Tote your treasures in style at game nights, crafting circles, and more!

Oh… and did we mention that the bags all use snap closures? No more zippers here! Perfect for stranded projects or just keeping your yarn contained while you work away during your weekend-long campaign!

Embrace your roles as both a knitting/crocheting guru and a D&D enthusiast. Elevate your crafting glory with my exclusive themed wares! But don’t delay, for great quests await…

I love a bag that can change purpose with your changing needs. These sweet frame bags have been very popular with my customers, who tell me that they use them as project bags one day and a handbag the next. The shape is a classic handbag style. It comes from the metal frame in the top of the bag that also holds it open when unzipped, making them excellent project bags. They’ve been flying away this month, but I still have several gorgeous options to choose from. Each one is unique!

Dumpling pouches are also great multipurpose bags. They’re perfect for a sock project, but equally great to use for makeup, cords and chargers, or any little things you need to organize in a larger bag. Several feature fabrics talking about home and family and combined with the fresh spring colors they make sweet Mother’s Day gifts.

And my large project bags are perfect for your next sweater project or for anything you need to tote from one place to another. Quilted fabric collages and heavy waxed canvas make these extra sturdy, while inside pockets, stitch marker rings, and magnetic snap closures keep your project — or anything you need to carry — safe and clean. Like all of my bags, these are also one of a kind so please don’t wait to choose your favorite.

Meet the newest addition to my Merino, silk and yak-blend bases — Yakima DK! This 60% Merino, 20% silk and 20% yak has all the special qualities of my fingering and laceweight versions. It has fantastic drape and softness. The silken sheen with the added heathered effect from the silvery-brown yak fibers lends a luminescence that’s out of this world.

Yakima DK is the same construction as my Neptune and Triton bases, a nice plump round 4-ply, which lends to great stitch definition and body. This is the perfect base for a new favorite sweater or cozy shawl or cowl. Available in 18 colors, a combination of multis and coordinating solids.

We are so excited for Bridgerton Season 3! As we’ve done in seasons past, we’ve created a Bridgerton Mystery Box featuring a beautiful new colorway on your choice of base in a box full of other goodies. This is not a subscription, but a unique one-time Bridgerton-inspired curation. These boxes are wildly popular and will go quickly. Be sure to reserve yours today so that you don’t miss out.

Our love affair with grays continues this week with Chimney Soot, a moody deep mood on Homer, our squishy soft MCN (Merino, Cashmere, nylon) base in DK weight. Choose this colorway for a tonal neutral; great for socks or to anchor brights in a project.

As we progress with our Spring out of Winter Make-a-Long featuring the EUN Sweater by November Knits, we’d like to highlight some helpful tools when making and caring for handmade garments: It’s all about Cocoknits! First, the CocoKnits Accessory Roll can store everything a knitter needs in one compact package. With flexible configurations, you can keep any number of notions, personal gear and cosmetics organized and at your fingertips.

Another great item from CocoKnits is the Maker’s Board. If you enjoy using paper patterns or having a convenient place to keep notes and such, the CocoKnits Maker’s Board is just the thing. Sturdy, and comes complete with magnets to keep your pattern neat and easy to see.

So many great tools from CocoKnits that will up your making game. Whether you are brand new or experienced, you deserve good tools! See our whole collection here.

Last but not least, be sure to watch every Saturday at 9:30 am Eastern as we go live on our YouTube channel, “The Traveling Two Ewe Knit”! We talk about beautiful yarn, patterns, projects we are working on and tons of fun yarny things. Click here to join us.

Fiber friends are the best friends, and we hope you’ll be ours!

Don’t get me wrong, there’s something to love about every time of year.

But there’s something about springtime that just hits me differently.

Watching the flowers bloom again after a long winter.

Hearing the birds singing in the morning.

Getting knee-deep into my craft room clearing out old projects and making way for new ones.

There’s something so inspiring about bringing in new shiny things that makes me want to get started on ALL the projects. 😍

Well, friend, speaking of restocking the craft room with brand new pretties, I’ve come with some HUGE news!

Today. Is. The. Day.

Our spring mini collection just hit the shop!

In this collection you’ll find all sorts of pretty, pretty things to get you feelin’ the spring vibes including:
– New row counters
– New happy clip markers
– Hand-dyed yarns
– And those awesome Speed Blocker blocking combs you saw in our Spring box!

Every MAB Elements order placed online at www.MABElements.com through Easter Sunday will receive one free set of our adorable bunny stitch markers. Select your favorite one-of-a-kind magnetic shawl pin, original circle shawl pin, earrings, necklace, or even stitch markers, and we will include a set of bunny stitch markers as our Easter gift to you.

Free shipping on all domestic orders over $50.

I wanted to let you know that this year’s Advent is available for preorder NOW, as well as show you my finished 2023 Advent project that I finished just in time for the launch!

If you’re new to my shop, my Advent Calendar serves as the perfect canvas for me to get truly creative with new color combos and layering techniques that create a cohesive palette.

I will, of course, be creating 24 completely one-of-a-kind colorways that will be fading in the most beautiful way, and one full skein that coordinates with the entire fade! They will not be traditional Christmas colors, although they will be individually named after fun, cozy, and Christmas-y things!

Here’s a rundown of what you’ll receive in this year’s Advent calendar:
– 24 OOAK 20-gram minis, all intentionally dyed with holiday inspiration, even though the color palette will not be strictly “Christmas colors”
– 1 100-gram skein to coordinate with the entire fade
– A custom scent, just for this box, of hand balm by Tuft Woolens
– A NEW countdown box with 25 fun doors and pockets!
– ALL colorways will be individually named after something special and very close to my heart, pertaining to the holiday season.

Featured here, in these photos, is last year’s Advent that I knit up in my current favorite Advent pattern: The Anthology Throw!

I cannot believe that half of these sold in just over a day, and less than a third are left! Thank you SO much for choosing to use my art to make your own!
