I couldn't resist and opened the bonus gifts yesterday!
They include a screen printed patch, some metallic tape, some stitch makers with pyrite beads and one skull bead, and a black cotton zip pouch with very cool metallic lining.

Day 1: Smoke Machine

A lovely soft light smoky grey ๐Ÿ–ค

Day 2: Freezing Moon
A gorgeous grey teal mix ๐Ÿ–ค

#YarnAdvent

#YarnAdvent Day 3 - Oxide: a very vibrant verdigris that my phone completely refuses to capture accurately... ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ
Imagine verdigris on copper, then neonify it...
#YarnAdvent Day 4: Silver
A delicious mid grey with a hint of warmth ๐Ÿ–ค
#YarnAdvent Day 5 - Skulls
A warm light grey with hints of shadow
#YarnAdvent Day 6 (aka 666 ๐Ÿ˜‚): Battle Vest
An appropriately motley black and grey ๐Ÿ–ค
#YarnAdvent Day 7: Goats
An acid yellow with green and brown speckles
#YarnAdvent Day 8: Forest at Night
A deliciously moody and mossy olive - probably my fave so far, but then I am a big fan of greens ๐Ÿ’š
#YarnAdvent Day 9: Double kick
A gorgeous deep olive brown shot through with black and burgundy ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค
#YarnAdvent Day 10: Pyrite
A gorgeous caramel olive sort of colour...
#YarnAdvent Day 11: Brass
Warm soft golden tones ๐Ÿ’›
#YarnAdvent Day 12: Gold
A warm sunny gold...
#YarnAdvent Day 13: Rust
A rusty ochre
(And a new contender for my fave!)
#YarnAdvent Day 14: Forge
A vibrant flaming orange for the glow of heated metal...
#YarnAdvent Day 15 - Copper
Oh yeah! A gorgeous coppery orange ๐Ÿงก
#YarnAdvent Day 16: Steel
Not so much of a blue grey as the photo suggests, but nonetheless lovely
#YarnAdvent Day 17: Circle Pit
Another day, another skein my phone refuses to photograph accurately ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ
This is rather warmer in tone than the photo... Soft red and mushroom, rather than grey...
#YarnAdvent Day 18: Axe
A gorgeous rock'n'roll red
#YarnAdvent Day 19: Death Growl
The penultimate mini-skein and it's gorgeous!!
Look at that fire!! โค๏ธ

#YarnAdvent Day 20 - the final mini-skein is, appropriately, Everything Black, and exactly as advertised!

Tomorrow is the big skein and then we're done... Happy almost-Solstice!

#YarnAdvent
Here's Days 11-20 all together ๐Ÿ–ค
#YarnAdvent Day 21 - saving the best for last... Here's "Stage Dive" an utterly gorgeous full sized skein (that's 100g/ 400m of gorgeousness)

And here's all of them together ๐Ÿ–ค

I'm probably going to use these across a bunch of different projects, rather than all together. I have thoughts about stranded colour work jersey yokes for starters...

@curiousjay my hand is literally trying to gently squeeze that skein through the screen.
