Ready to use, non-snagging, and SO helpful for keeping track of a four row repeat.

This was my first year to open a Twice Sheared Sheep Advent box. First of all the packaging was AMAZING! I was so intrigued when I received it. It was very hard to wait until 12/1 to open the first box. What I found was a daily treasure! What I ended up with was a beautifully full and complete notions pouch ready to throw into my next project bag. These are items I will go to again and again. And there were some non-knitting related gifts that I treasure as well. Highly recommend!

This was so much fun! And wonderful things, small and not so small, well-spaced through the month. Enjoyed it immensely, and shared my daily openings on FB, where it seems at least one of my friends may give it a try next year because of what they saw. Delightful!

I absolutely loved the Advent Box! It really exceeded my expectations. From the Tape measure, scissors, cable locks (brilliant), to the counters, markers and extension cords to was so fun to open. The fox pin was very sweet. Biggest surprise for me is the sock tool. I'd never seen it before and always have a sock on my needles. Looking forward to next year!

I loved my Advent Box! I opened one each day for a special treat. I have several projects going at a time, so extra row counters were welcome! Also included were many tools I’ve drooled over but didn’t yet order… the cable needles, the repair tools, the purple stoppers… and others I didn’t know I needed…the sock measuring tool, for when I get around to trying to knit socks, the holding cables - which for me, who is scared of sweaters, will use to be able to repurpose my needles. Why does everything need a 7?! But my favorite is the scissors! They’re nice and sharp. And now I have one for my travel bag, because last year’s scissors is in my project bag. I’m looking forward to next year!

enjoyed the stich markers and row counters, have a gage already and the yarn is not my style of yarn. The bag and tins are very nice.

I love everything in it and I'm already using lots of them in my latest knitting project. I especially love the chain row counters. I started to buy one, but glad I waited! It was so much fun opening a new "gift" every day! Can't wait to do it again! Thanks Dawn!

I had gotten the Mother’s Day box and so enjoyed I had to try the advent box. It was such fun every morning with my coffee to see what the little white box held!! I really liked and can use almost everything in the box! I was hoping for some more row counters and they were there. Loved the angora yarn and thought so nice you gave suggestion of patterns to use. I will be looking for early sign up for next year!

Sign me up for next year! This is my first advent box and I have loved every product in it! I opened them by day and enjoyed each surprise. The scissors are just gorgeous and the little bag was a sweet treat. I have cheap stitch markers and am overjoyed to be able to toss them and use these beauties. Thank you a wonderful gift box and I look forward to next year’s. In the meantime I signed up for the yearlong mystery boxes and am eagerly awaiting the first one in March!

A friend did your advent box last year and the items were amazing. I decided to treat myself this year to the knitters advent box and I was amazed at the wonderful items! I will definitely be doing next year's advent box again.

Best advent box that I have ever purchased. So many lovely notions that I will definitely use. I appreciate all off the thought, creativity, and love that went into creating this box.

My new cable needles arrived today and I’ve finally met my match. I love cable needles and have so many different styles - I’m always looking for the perfect one. Now I’ve found it. The size is just perfect- it does the job but is happy to move out of the way. The little grooves hold the yarn in place- no slipping. Three sizes - so glad I ordered two sets so I can always find one. Thanks so much- I’m over the moon!

Received my order and love it! Since last name is fox I just had to have it and it is so helpful. Starting using the same night! Wonderful!

Bought these beautiful markers for a friend. They are so pretty and delicate. Love them. Thanks for the quick delivery of my order and the personal response. I'll definitely shop here again. Thank you.

Love all the stitch markers, sweet storage tins and row counters I have ordered. They add to the enjoyment of knitting. Service was excellent. Highly recommend both functional and beautiful tools.

I love the color yarn choice. The cable stitch holders are adorable, and I can't wait to make my hat

I ordered 2 of these recently, and so far, I love them. It’s a great way to keep track of my rows without having to stop and count!

These are beautiful scissors! The design is elegant.

Great Product and really quick shipping. And she stands by her merchandise. When mine broke, I received a quick replacement. Love the row Counte3rs!!!

My counter broke and the customer service was fantastic! A new one is on its way. Thank you!

I love my new shiny stitch markers!🌷🌺
They are perfect and I use them all the time this is my third set a knitter can never have to many 😊😊

I am happy with these now that I am used to them. Nice and smooth and less awkward than my U-shaped cable needles

I love the row counters so much,
They have saved me so much recounting! Thanks

totally snag free and so light and easy to slip from one needle to the other. cant wait to get more of these!

I can't wait to use my new dog counter! We lost our little schnauzer to cancer last summer and this reminds me of her. She always loved to lay on whatever I was working on. :). I have come to realize that I cannot knit without one of these TSS chain row counters without SO much frustration. I’m too easily distracted to keep track of where I am otherwise. And, of course, I love the extra bling while I'm working on my project. 🙂

I love this row counter! It's quickly become one of my favorite knitting tools. I appreciate the great service too!

Just received these yesterday and love them! They are SO smooth and very pretty too. There is no way yarn will stick to these and I know I will enjoy
using them. The grooves will hold the yarn in place. They DO fit in my large tin so they will be handy when I need them. Thank you for making these!

I ordered this tin to put my new Cable needles in. It is lovely and they fit nicely!!! Thank you, Dawn!!!

I really like these (tried them after the circular set). I actually use them in the reverse of the way Dawn explains. I worried that I would forget that with these the row indicated is the next row, so I swapped the order and mark the row just finished when starting the next row. Easier for me and I am less likely to screw things up.

First purchase from twice sheared sheep was the advent calendar. I did open in order but some were a day or so in advance. Loved day 1's bag. Helped me to keep all my goodies in one spot. Enjoyed all the counters and stitch markers. Had been stalking the site for them for a bit. Sorry to say, but I was not a huge fan of the yarn.... personal opinion. I did absolutely love the last day... those scissors are amazing.

I did look forward to opening the boxes each day. I”m using KnitCompanion more often so the row counters aren’t as necessary but they will make nice gifts for my knitting friends! Probably too many stitch markers even though I feel you can’t have too many! All in all! I thought it was worth it but I did get mine on sale. Loved the caramels - it was a nice little surprise!

While being pricey, if you can afford to shell out, you get your money's worth! This is not your average advent box, and the tools are very useful. The salted caramels this year were a nice touch.

I actually think this is worth 4.5 stars. First off, the box and packaging were absolutely the most luxurious and beautiful things ever. I'm keeping the empties for some advent related craft next year. I found the quality of most of the items was excellent, and I was happy to get a full range of row counters and stitch markers, as I have been wanting some for a while. That said, as someone who tries not to overload myself on excess supplies I'm glad I didn't already own an abundance of markers and such. This worked beautifully as a starter kit for my knitting notions. The fuzzy socks were fun, but seemed an odd choice to include in something that's geared toward handmaking things, and I get it that not everyone is going to knit themselves socks, they just seemed weird to include. I got two 2oz cakes of merino wool that are nice and soft, though the colors don't really compliment each other. I liked the addition of a pattern, that was a fun choice. I would have loved a code to redeem digitally on a designers website instead, as the printed page is just a piece of paper that is easily ripped or lost. Overall I adored the box; it was a real treat to myself but there are a few things that could have been tweaked to really put it over the top.

This bag is the best ever, I have my pattern in the clear pocket and my project in the main pocket, this project was using two bags, because all the extra yarn didn’t fit in the bag with the yarn in use.

I received my llama row counters in just a few days after ordering. They are smooth and well crafted and will surely become a lovely addition to my knitting tools.

I absolutely LOVED this advent calendar! It was gorgeously packaged and so much fun to open each little box every day, it definitely gave me a wonderful little thing to look forward to. I wear the cute cat paw socks all the time, am in absolute love with all my stitch markers, and am so excited to use the row counters - they're incredible. The pouch is everything and I might have a few more tins than I know what to do with, but it's been kind of fun to sort all my stitch markers. And, of course, the scissors! They're absolutely lovely and have been in daily craft rotation since the day I opened the box. Such a delightful box and I'm already looking forward to next year.

My first advent box with Twice Sheared Sheep! I somehow managed to restrain myself and opened it as a big present on Christmas Day. Day 1, with the beautiful floral bag was like a fireworks kickoff to the calendar and that was lovely. As with many of other reviews, the tins, the style of stitch markers, and the row counters felt a little too uniform and I was just a bit disappointed that there was not more uniqueness, variety of style. Other items on the website have so much adorable detail such as the kitty head(I also ordered these), and honeycomb stitch markers. I also love the kawaii charms and row counters, and I think I had it in my mind that the items in the box would be more along that style, but perhaps a special advent calendar edition. My favorites in the calendar are the butterfly charm increase and decrease counters on Day 18, and the Day 6 row counter with the kitty. They are detailed and have a little more of the whimsical feeling I was hoping to have in entire calendar. I am very happy to have a full set of row counters! The crystal teardrops on end are elegant. The little tins are very nice. My favorite is the sunflower and the robin. I would have really loved to have some Christmas themed stitch markers, tins, row counters. Thank you for the lovely presentation of the box and all little boxes inside. It has a very luxurious, classic look. I really like how the items came in the organza bags! That is so nice. I look forward to putting the beautiful scissors to use and I hope they’ll last me a long time. Thank you.

I love Advent calendars and try new ones each year. I’ve only been knitting a few years and love the TSS products.
This year I treated myself to the Advent calendar. What a great gift and worth the price.
I loved every item. The scissors, row markers, and bag are my favorites.
I am not sure if I will order one next year because, how could it get better?
No, I’ll definitely order another next year. I looked forward to everyday and I’m already looking forward to next year’s box.

Fun box to receive. The bag, scissors, and tape measure are very useful. The tins are hard to open. Also, I think a plastic see through type of container would be helpful to see what stitch markers are inside. Maybe one with multiple compartments. That might be hard to fit into an advent box, though. I myself liked the caramels and the socks. Maybe a couple of pairs of scissors would be nice for multiple knitting bags. Overall I’m very happy I did this!! It was fun to open a box each day!!!!

I loved this box and the beautiful handmade supplies. My kids and I made a ritual of opening our advent calendars every morning, and it quite simply made my Christmas. I am so thrilled to have a complete TSS set of row counters and stitch markers, including some smaller chains, and I LOVE the gorgeous, simple jewel-toned charms. The brain pin, and the floral pattern on the bag are not my cup of tea, but the bag is good quality and the perfect size for a sock or hat project.

Funny story about the socks: my best friend bought me an identical pair for Christmas and delivered them early, but my daughter (age 7) fell in love with them and I let her take them. When I pulled out the Day 16 box, squishy but too small to be yarn, imagine my delight when a new pair for me appeared! They are not robust socks, but they are whimsical and cozy.

Thank you TSS for curating a unique and fun advent box, giving me the gift of quality time with my children, and lovely handmade tools for my knitting. Keep up the good work!

This was my first Advent Box. My favorite was day one. Pretty amazing you got that beautiful project bag in a small box. I started using it right away - I love it!! I like the tins but I have a hard time opening them. Tins with a slide top could solve that issue for me. I love Dawn's shop and have ordered so many row counters and stitch markers. That being said, some items were a bit repetitive but I still love them. I was disappointed on two of the days -the candy and the pre-made socks. I really liked the squishy balls of yarn. I started knitting with the dusty blue/gray (love the color) that I had the perfect pattern for. I made a headband that would go over my ears for warmth and with this yarn it wouldn't be itchy. I couldn't believe what I came across with that one little ball of yarn - in the headband I dealt with 7 knots!!! and I mean knots to the point I had to cut and restart. Lots of end to weave in for that little project. I sure hope I was the only one with such a crummy ball of yarn. It seemed like it was pieced together with scraps to make the yardage. I'm hesitant to start another out of the foam green color. That was a frustrating project but I don't blame TSS for what I received. There was no way of them knowing. What I'd like to see in the 2022 box would be Right and Wrong side markers, larger tins or at least tins with a slide top and no fillers such as candy or socks. This was fun anticipating the opening of each new day and I'll probably order again.

This was my first Advent Box and will NOT be my last. I absolutely loved it. I already owned 2 of the tins but I can always use more (larger size is welcomed too although box size may limit that idea) and can gift one or two as well - so will not go unused. I have used the bag for a "carry my project" back and forth - it is awesome and super cute, love it!! The scissors are perfect - everything was great, I will be doing this again. Thank you!!

I had hoped for cuter charms on the row counters and stitch markers, they were pretty samey
The socks made a nice regift

I so enjoyed opening a box every morning. My favorite was on day one with the pouch. I use it every day. I wish there weren't as many tins though. My least favorite was the yarn. I know I'll never use it. But everything else was welcomed and I just couldn't wait to get up each morning for my next surprise.

Even before I opened anything I thought the box itself was wonderful with all the different sized boxes fitted together. I got stitch counters that I never knew I needed but will definitely use. I like that sizes for all needles are included, and packaged so cutely. My favorite? The elephant tin! If I was disappointed in anything it's that I didn't get one of the larger sliding top tins.

As with so many others, this was my first Advent box. I waited until Christmas morning to open each box (my dear, sweet husband is a bit challenged when it comes to giving gifts.) I loved it! Some things surprised me, others were cute but disappointing. I love the tins. I already owned one. But I would have loved the larger size. I was able to gift one of the row counters (I already had 2 and don't usually have 3 or 4 projects going at the same time) and a set of stitch markers to my granddaughter's mom who is a relatively new knitter. My favorite stitch markers are hand made fused glass ones I picked up in a small shop in Juneau, Alaska. When I saw the socks, I sighed. The donate bag, I thought. But, one night, when my feet were so cold I grabbed them and I was surprised to find they were just perfect! They are staying!! And I'm looking forward to using the shortie row counter... Hoping there is enough yarn to knit a hat for my 6 year old granddaughter... I'll explore that later on. All in all, I was very pleased. I guess I wish I was earlier in my knitting life when I needed so many of these tools! And, oh, those caramels? They were delicious and I ended up ordering them for my neighbor, a stressed out healthcare worker who loves caramels. Thank you, Dawn, for curating such an interesting box!

I enjoyed each and every day of this Advent Calendar immensely! The items chosen were lovely and useful.

I loved the Advent Box. This is the first time, I bought one from you. I really love the row counters. I saw them advertised on Facebook and thought they seem complicated and I didn't need them. Boy! Was I wrong. I have been using them continually on my knitting projects. I was a little confused in the beginning, wondering why there were so many counters in the box, but then I realized it was the complete set. I was thrilled. They are so easy to use. The scissors are nice and sharp. The markers are pretty and work well. It was fun opening a little box every morning. The little project bag was pretty. Thank you for a fun Christmas activity.

I had such fun opening each day! I was thrilled with the great zipper bag to hold all the small things needed for my projects. The tins and varied row counters and markers can’t be beat! I couldn’t wait to see what was in the little box each morning. The scissors are beautiful.
The day I opened the candy was a little disappointing, as was the pattern. The yarn was okay, but hard to figure out a good project for it as the balls aren’t very big and the colors are a bit drab. I was glad to see the info so I can maybe order more. The socks may go to a grandchild. I tried wearing them but they weren’t very comfortable. They are cute though!
I realize every day can’t be a high priced item. Have you ever thought of selling tiny labels for the tins? It is hard to remember which tin has which row counter/stitch marker etc. and which size. Small peel and stick markers would be a huge help. You could sell them as a sheet of all the items you sell or include one label with each item.
I love your products and the advent calendar was fantastic! I can’t wait to order next year’s!! You are doing a great job. When one of my row counters broke, you fixed it in no time at no charge. Thank you for excellent products, excellent service, and a very fun count down to Christmas! You’re the best! :o)

This is/was a magnificent Advent box. I had 4 this year for different things, but this was the BEST. Great idea to have the bag be day 1 so I could protect all my other treats. I love your row counters and stitch markers, so I really was spoiled. I loved everything about this box.

Like the others (above or below) I didn’t know what to expect with my first Advent Calendar. I had lots of time to imagine because I saved it as my big Christmas Gift. And I LOVED it. I use the row counters all the time so getting such a variety of the pretties will be a continuing gift through the year. And the unique items - the scissors, tape measure — they are beautiful. I openly admit that the thing that keeps me knitting through the dry spells or exhaustion is my love for pretty knitting do-dads. And Twice Sheared Sheep has a wonderful selection of them. I will absolutely get the Advent Calendar again next year (and the year after!) LOVE IT.

This is my first Advent box and I loved it. Everything was just so much fun. I love my little boxes and my chain counters and everything that came in it. The project bag I think was my most favorite thing. Just perfect. I will definitely get another one next year!

I think you included a wonderful assortment of knitting goodies. This was my first advent order and I thoroughly enjoyed opening them all. Yes there are somethings I’ll enjoy more than others but I am very pleased. Thanks for putting it together ❤️

I fell in love with the row counters over the summer. The additional row counters and stitch markers will be useful and are well made. I was happy with everything that was in the advent box and even happy with the advent box.

Bought this for my wife and did not really know what to expect. She absolutely loved it.

The quality of the items in the calendar made it a real treat each day. She was always excited to see what was in the box. She loved the project with pattern and yarn ( mohair of course )

This got me far more brownie points than I expected

This was my favorite advent of this year....and I spoiled myself with a few:). Beautiful tools, particular the scissors, which is a work of art. Happy new year and I'll be signing up again for next year's advent.

This is my second Twice Sheared Sheep Knitting Advent box. Last year I jumped ahead and loved the items in it. This year I am open one a day and look forward to each day package. So far on day 12 everything is so nice and enjoyable. The box is well worth it. Enjoying every days package.

AWESOME! The scissors are beautiful and well worth the money. I highly recommend for small jobs.

Beautiful tin, it’s so cute to hold stitch markers, a perfect size.

These scissors are the most beautiful pair I have ever had. My puppy 🐕tried to grab them, too slow, Sadie!

Love my sweet rainbow scissors...actually think of a peacock more than a rainbow when I look at them...especially thankful for the case since they are very sharp...so comfortable to use

Just got my kit with the sassy sheep yesterday. It’s beautiful and the perfect thing to put a smile on my face while I knit.

This is adorable and I am certain it will work as well as the knitting row counters I have already purchased. Love them and I am certain I will love this shorter version also. It arrived quickly, well-packaged and with tw0 sweet treats also. Thanks.

I love my sheep row counters! Since I frequently use both large and small size needles I bought one small, one intermediate set. And since I couldn't wait to get them I was thrilled to get them in today's mail...yeah!!

Love this little helper. I and love my two slide tins.
The row counters are amazing, and the only counters I have used since I began buying and using them.
The odd even counter is frosting on the cake! Thank you for your quick service!

Nifty knit bits!

I love my stitch markers and my sheep little box here to put everything in it it's beautiful. Shipping was fast I would definitely refer this to other people and a great job you've done

I received 4 row counters for my 80th birthday. Tried one out yesterday and it will solve all my counting rows problems. I always think I will remember but never do. Thank you for bringing these beautiful and lightweight counters to us.

I have been knitting for 60+ years and finally can get rid of my scrap paper/pen that was always next to my projects to help keep track of rows. The most amazing part of these counters is that there are absolutely no rough edges for the yarn to catch on. I love them so much I ordered another set for me and one for my daughter who is learning knitting. Thank you Twice Sheared Sheep for such a wonderful tool that is now an integral part of my knitting projects.

Just received the sheep row counter and Sassy Sheep tin (hysterically cute tin!) Well made. Looking forward to trying it. One of the other cutest things in the package is Dawn’s disappointed face on her business card asking “Did something go wrong? Are you making this face?” Clever! That and the hand-written card is a great personal touch. Who would t want to shop here again?

I bought my first row counter for a knitter friend for Christmas ( and one for myself). I don't know how I ever got along without it! Best thing since sliced bread. I now had a sheep to go with my hedgehog. Your products are wonderful. I am so glad I found you.

My third set of these markers. They are the best in all ways. Fast service, fast shipping, nicely packaged. Quality in all ways.

Love the melody markers. Not only beautiful but versatile as well. Was so excited when I got them. Will be buying Christmas for my knitting friends. Thank you!

Just received my Dragon row counter and it's much nicer than the pictures. Can't wait to use it.

Today's mail brought the Mother's Day treat that my children would never have known I wanted! My Raindrop markers and the precious little box that Dawn offered for Mother's Day are shiny and beautiful! I'm excited to use them on my next project! I have many little tools from Twice Sheared Sheep and they never disappoint!

I am a baby knitter, but as a long time quilter I know that the right tools make the difference between the joy of a lifetime hobby and quitting in frustration. So as soon as I realized I was going to love knitting I bought myself row and stitch counters. My current (and only second) project is very straightforward and easy--except I still have a tendency to miss a loop and end up with a yarnover, or get distracted and forget to switch my yarn from back to front. So even though it's K1,P1 RS and WS (followed by P1,K1 RS and WS--I'm loving the texture!), I have stitch markers set every 10 stitches. That was if I get to stitch 10 and it's a K when it should be a P, I can stop right there, back up, and figure out where I missed. My first scarf has a bunch of holes and mistakes. Not this second project. And that's 100% thanks to these markers--and they are so darned pretty and cheerful, hanging from my needles!

Just received this set today and I'm very impressed with it right out of the box. The figures are very nicely made and and K - I - D buttons are nicely rendered. I'm branching out into more complicated crochet patterns which require stitch or color changes or increases/decreases as the pattern builds, so these will be very helpful. I was aware of stitch counters from my brief time as a knitter and was looking for something that would work for crochet.

Beautiful stitch markers
I got some for me and a friend. I also happy to give her quality markers.

Lovely products, great service. Already using my purchases. Love the little storage tin!

Excellent quality and fast wonderful service. The row counter and markers don't snag on even the finest yarn, unlike the cheap plastic ones I was using. And the sweet tin keeps everything handy. A special gift for your favorite knitter, but you'll want to keep it for yourself.

Lovely, super well made and nicely thin, so they don't get in the way. Terrific!

I got the kitten tin to keep my cat stitch markers in. And to make my friends jealous. LOVE IT!

Just ordered the bunny (large) and fox (extra large). These looked intriguing and very cute. Just started using it on my gauge swatch and it was so much nicer than stopping and making a hash mark on paper as I have trouble counting rows in the actual fabric and I'm always off. Not anymore! So easy to use and I'll never be without again. Thanks so much for a cute accessory that actually works!!!

This little tin is so pretty! I keep my sea turtle stitch marker in it.

I just received my llama gift set! As a former llama and alpaca owner I am always looking for special items to use. Can't wait to use them!

I love these stitch markers! They slip easily between my needles, and are so pretty. They add another level of enjoyment to my knitting!
