Il Borgo, Aurifil’s 2025 Advent Calendar, is a vibrant celebration of the season – a festive countdown filled with colour, creativity, and daily inspiration.

Introducing, Il Borgo, Aurifil’s 2025 advent calendar. Designed to capture the magic of the season through a maker’s lens, this year’s Aurifil Advent Calendar invites sewists to rediscover the joy of anticipation – one colourful surprise at a time.

Contents: Behind each door awaits a perfectly curated spool of Aurifil’s premium 100% cotton thread, ready to spark inspiration, creativity, and a few joyful moments just for you. It’s a celebration of craftsmanship, nostalgia, and the simple pleasure of a holiday tradition reimagined for the creative spirit of today.

When the holiday season unfolds across the foothills of the Italian Alps, the mountain villages high above stir with life. This celebration of heritage and tradition infuses our palette with warmth, depth, and meaning. Our palette of 24 hues includes five brand-new, limited-edition colours exclusive to this advent calendar in addition to a medley of Aurifil’s cotton thread weights, including our new Cotton 8wt/2ply & our Cotton 6-strand divisible floss.

Il Borgo was thoughtfully designed to celebrate creativity, joy, and the spirit of discovery. Each spool inside has been carefully selected to inspire, while the accompanying secure online portal—exclusively for calendar holders—is filled with a trove of digital delights, courtesy of Aurifil. This portal enhances your experience with festive surprises, creative content, and added value each day.

As an extra touch of magic, five sets worldwide will include a rare golden spool. If you find one, you’ll win an exclusive prize from Aurifil valued at over £240.
