What happens when you combine an award-winning humor columnist, a wildly talented local hand dyer, a caffeine-fueled, overactive imagination, and 25 days to tell a story?
The Shrimp and Knits 2026 Winter Advent Calendar.
Behind each numbered package is a beautiful locally hand-dyed Freckled Frog MCN mini-skein, another chapter in a delightfully ridiculous story, and another excuse to look forward to tomorrow. We won't tell you where the adventure begins, where it ends, or what questionable decisions are made along the way.
That would ruin all the fun. But it involves ice cream.
You're going to want to get in on it before it sells out. Last year's advent sold out in two weeks, and I have heard nothing but rave reviews on how funny our most recent advent, Gilded Treasure Pirate Advent, is.
What's Included:
25 delicious flavors of hand-dyed mini skeins by Freckled Frog Yarns
Choice of Classic or Sparkle MCN High Twist - Merino/Cashmere/Nylon Fingering weight (little teaser in the picture)
Twenty-five chapters of Tracy story telling humor because laughter pairs surprisingly well with yarn and pretty much everything.
Optional Add On - Super Baby Alpaca, Silk, and Cashmere Fluff companion yarn for a gorgeous halo effect
Story-themed treats tucked throughout the calendar
Pattern ideas to inspire your perfect project
Buy two of Fluff Yarn get the third free.
Shipping is $25 and must be purchased separately.
A Small Disclaimer
Possible side effects include:
Looking forward to tomorrow's chapter before you've finished today's.
Laughing out loud while opening your daily treat.
Wondering how an imaginary town somehow became part of your daily routine.
Accidentally reading "just one more chapter" before bed.
Treat Yo'self. You've tolerated people all year. You could use some spoiling, and a good laugh to start the day.
December is stressful. Laughter will help you survive.
You've earned this.
Advent calendars to ship the last week of November
Just added: The Frozen Assets Daily Story Advent!
All the questionable decisions. None of the yarn.
Follow Frog through 25 daily chapters as he opens an ice cream shop and discovers that Maple Hollow has plenty of opinions—and one unfinished mystery.
Choose the story only for $25, or the Story & Surprises Edition for $65, with the collectible characters, clues, and little extras tucked in along the way.
Because you don’t have to knit to appreciate a frog who has seriously underestimated small-business ownership.
