Couldn't load pickup availability
Why We Launch Early
We release our advents and countdown boxes early each year to allow the necessary time for:
• Custom fabric design and printing
• Artisan collaborations and handcrafted elements
• Carefully curated supplies to be produced
• Detailed assembly and packaging
Nothing about this collection is rushed. Every component is commissioned and crafted with intention — much like the handmade Christmases that inspired it.
Shipping & Customs
All advents will be CUSMA compliant, meaning they qualify under the Canada–United States–Mexico Agreement and should not have tariffs applied when shipping within participating countries.
We take great care in structuring our production and documentation properly so your experience remains seamless from our studio to your doorstep.
A Sock Box Countdown Calendar Presented by Gingersnap
12 days of Christmas ...ships the week of Nov 10th 2026
Afterglow: Neon Illumination
There is something powerful about December evenings.
The quiet. The stillness. The way light feels brighter against the dark.
Afterglow: Neon Illumination was created for those moments.
This is a curated four-part sockset experience designed to be opened every Friday throughout December. Each week reveals a distinct neon blacklight-reactive colourway layered with bold black and or white contrast — cohesive as a collection, yet completely individual in expression.
Refined. Striking. Unexpected.
Not a traditional advent.
A slow unveiling of light.
✨ The Collection
You will receive:
• Four individually wrapped socksets, each numbered for a Friday in December
• Four unique neon blacklight-reactive colourways (sets will all be different dye techniques)
• One handcrafted progress keeper by Blossom Stitch Co
• A thoughtfully selected sock pattern
• A special extra tucked inside
Every detail has been considered — from saturation to contrast — to create a December that feels intentional rather than overwhelming.
Each Friday becomes a pause.
A ritual.
An invitation to sit down, cast on, and watch colour come alive.
Under natural light, the palette is bold and graphic.
Under blacklight, it transforms.
🧶 The Base
Plush Fingering 4 Ply
75% Superwash Merino / 25% Nylon
18.5 micron merino
Smooth. Refined. Exceptionally soft.
This base offers a polished hand with beautiful stitch definition and the durability needed for long-wear socks. The 18.5 micron merino creates a silky softness while the nylon provides strength and structure — the perfect balance of luxury and performance.
Total Yardage for each Set:
650 yards / 135 grams
Generous yardage allows for longer cuffs, extended sizing, colour play, or simply the freedom to knit without restraint.
🖤 The Feeling
Afterglow is about contrast —
Light against dark.
Structure against spontaneity.
Winter quietly lit by electric colour.
It is designed for makers who love something a little bolder.
Who appreciate elevated detail.
Who want December to feel immersive rather than hurried.
Each sockset stands on its own. Together, they tell a story of glow, shadow, and movement through the season.
⚡ Optional Add-On
A custom printed Afterglow project bag is available as an add-on — created to hold your socksets beautifully and carry your December knitting in statement style.
Afterglow is produced in limited quantities.
Once sold out, it will not return.
Turn down the lights.
Unwrap the glow.
December begins here.

Each blank will be unique due to the nature of the dye process.....saturation of color may vary. Colors may be more or less dominant than shown in product photos. This colorway will knit up some what variegated or striped depending on the pattern .
This yarn is machine washable, I recommend hand-washing and laying flat to dry, this will increase the product’s life .
Wash separately, as minimal color bleeding may occur during the first few washes.
I do my best to keep true to the colors represented in product photos but please note that computer monitors vary....also I-pads and other devices
