"First thing this morning I opened my box of light and wow! This is going to be an amazing month of surprises each day. I ignored everything, grabbed a cup of coffee, and cast on." Our project, this year, incorporates various yarns that are lovingly dyed by the talented women of Manos del Uruguay, a Fair Trade women's cooperative.You are going to love these yarns, but our Box of Light is more than mini skeins. It is a self-guided retreat designed to bring you joy and peace as you count down to the New Year. My Box of Light knitting was pure joy! Just enough yarn to keep me going, but not overwhelming. ~ very happy customer The Story Behind the Box of Light Several years ago, we had the idea to create an "advent" calendar for knitters. We loved the idea of a daily surprise, but we didn't want to leave anyone out. So, we decided to count down to the New Year. Added bonus: our box contains 31 surprises instead of just 24! Our first Box of Light was a huge hit and it has gotten better every year! We love being part of the annual traditions in hundreds of households. "I just wanted to let y'all know I LOVED this year's Box of Light! It's the 3rd year I've participated and, somehow, each year has been more fun and inner-supportive than the last." ~another happy customer The Box of Light Experience While there are many "advent" boxes of yarn out there, our Box of Light stands out because of our focus on the making experience and the benefits it brings you. We want this box to feel like a mini-retreat, a sanctuary where you emerge feeling cared for, rested, and focused. Whether you enjoy a solitary moment in a busy day, connect with a family member or knitting buddy, or save the whole experience for the long month of January, our Box of Light is designed to bring you daily peace and joy. What is the best part?"Taking a moment to pause, open a surprise, and knit each morning during a busy season. It is a mediative, joyful start of the day!" ~yet another happy customer What's Inside Your Box of Light?Your box is packed with: Joy!
