Some projects begin with a pattern. Others begin with a story.
Tucked beneath the forest canopy, growing quietly on fallen logs and damp earth, one of Aotearoa New Zealand's most fascinating hidden treasures thrives: fungi. Often overlooked, these remarkable organisms create entire worlds of colour, texture and wonder.
We're delighted to announce this year's Prosper Advent theme:
Inspired by New Zealand's wild and uniquely beautiful fungi, Hidden World is a colour journey through brilliant hues, unusual forms and unexpected combinations.
The 2026 Prosper Advent unfolds through a series of gentle fades, each one leading towards a speckled colourway. Yes! There will be speckled yarns. In fact, there will be several of them — a special treat we haven't featured since our very first Advent collection.
Alongside your daily yarn surprise, you'll discover a thoughtful weekly gift inspired by curiosity, creativity and the natural world. We're collaborating with local producers and artisans to create a collection of treats designed to delight the seeker, the maker and the naturalist in all of us.
Choose from a 12-day or 24-day journey of individually eco-wrapped mini skeins, each carefully numbered and designed to work beautifully on its own or as part of a larger fade.
You can also add one or two full-size coordinating skeins, opening up endless possibilities for shawls, sweaters, blankets and accessories.
Pre-orders are now open, with limited numbers available across Cashmerino, Beaut, Legend and Prosper DK. The Advents will be shipped in the 1st week of November.
Whether you open a daily surprise throughout December or save the collection for a special summer holiday cast-on, Hidden World is designed to bring a little wonder to your making.
We can't wait to share it with you.
