Simple embodied acts--walking, sipping tea, holding hands--can be forms of prayer. This same is true for the humble art of knitting. Especially during seasons of waiting, having work for our hands can help us focus our attention and settle our spirits. That's why we are so pleased to offer this Warmth for Waiting Cowl Knitting Pattern.
The inspiration for this design comes from the season of Advent - a season of waiting, longing, preparation, and expectation. During Advent we wait with hope and expectation for the coming of Christ. The colors of the cowl fade from dark at the front to bright at the back. Dark purples and blues are the traditional colors of Advent, which signify royalty to welcome the coming King, and this pattern suggests a bright orange to signify hope and light in the midst of our waiting.
May this cowl be a reminder to you that there can be light in the midst of darkness and hope in the midst of seasons of waiting.

What types of shipping services do you offer?
We are thrilled to ship to the US and around the world. We offer Media Mail and Priority Mail via the United States Postal Service and other similar services. All orders are processed in the order they were received. All USPS shipping fees are based on our costs to ship to you and may shift ever-so-slightly from day-to-day, as they update in real time.
First Class International shipping prices range from $25-$40 USD and depend on the destination. International customers may also be charged an additional tariff fee when retrieving their packages from post offices. We are unable to include it in the cost of your item and shipping currently. We understand international shipping is a bit more expensive. We hope to have more international options as our volume increases, but in the meantime placing a group order with your friends will reduce the international cost and give you a group discount!
How quickly will my order ship?
Digital products are automatically sent by email shortly after you place your order. Physical products are shipped from our warehouse in Waco, TX every weekday afternoon. You'll receive an email with tracking information when your order is shipped.
Can I change my shipping address, email or payment info?
Because our orders ship daily, we may not be able to change your information before your order is processed and shipped. For that reason, please verify your shipping address at checkout before submitting your order. If you find an error, contact us as soon as possible and we will try our hardest to make corrections before the order goes out. We try to check email for any shipping-related updates before printing labels.
What is your return policy?
We do our best to describe and depict each product with great care and detail. For that reason we created the FREE Essentials Workbook to give you a closer look at the design of our planner. The Essentials Workbook will help you evaluate if our product is a good fit for you before you spend any money. You can often purchase digital sample months of the planners to try before you buy. Our planner isn't a perfect fit for everyone, though. We haven't set out to be. It's not possible! That said, let us know if you find an issue and we will do our best to make it right.
If your physical product is damaged or defective, or you receive the wrong product, please contact us with your name, order number, and nature of the issue at hello@sacredordinarydays.com and we will address your concern as quickly as possible.
