Designed as a celebration of creativity, comfort, and the art of making by hand, Il Salotto, Aurifil’s 2026 advent calendar, invites you to slow down and savor the season— one thoughtful stitch at a time. Il Salotto, which means“the living room” in Italian, is the heart of every home this time of year. The place where stitches happen by lamplight, stories get told, and the holiday season slowly unfolds. 24 little doors, 24 surprises, and a palette designed to feel exactly like that warm corner makers keep returning to.
Behind each door awaits a beautifully curated spool of Aurifil’s premium 100% cotton thread, offering a quiet moment of inspiration each day. With 12 small spools of their versatile Cotton 50wt and 12 small spools of their richly textured Cotton 12wt, this collection was created to support piecing, quilting, and embellishing alike, honoring every facet of the maker’s craft.
You will also have access to a secure online portal exclusive to calendar holders, featuring digital content and seasonal extras designed to enrich the experience. As a special bonus, five calendars worldwide will contain a rare golden spool redeemable for an exclusive Aurifil prize package valued at over $300.
These calendars are a limited production run, and Aurifil has anticipated high demand. They must be pre-ordered to receive one, and no additional units will be produced. The deadline to get your orders to me is June 18th so that I can let Aurifil know our numbers in time. The calendars are not just fun, they are beautifully presented and make a great gift to yourself or someone special; just email if you would like details. (karen at karenneary dot ca) We are happy to mail to any address in Canada. (Local folks are welcome to pick theirs up, of course!)
June 18th is not very far away so please act quickly if you are interested. The calendars will arrive to me in mid-November so you should have yours in time to start opening on December 1.
