This will be my Winter's mystery Stitch-a-long, but be warned - it's not particularly Christmassy!
As the name suggests this SAL is designed to go with my previous SAL design Dreaming of Summer. So you'll be able to guess how it may look.
* This version is for a set of PDFs and the Fabric & Floss *
How the stitch-a-long works:
This is a 5 part stitch-a-long. You will receive a part of the design on the release dates below until the design is fully revealed on 17th December. So you have a little extra time to get it stitched before the end of the year.

Part 4 - 3rd December
