Merry Christmas Morning,

For the past couple of years—see Christmas Day 2013 & 2014—I’ve been decorating our staircase (in lieu of the Christmas tree we don’t have), then posting photos of my festive yarn bombing decor to the blog on Christmas Day 🙂

That tradition continues this year, although it is running a bit late… :-/ I’ll have photos for my next blog post! 

Ah well, inspiration can sometimes take time… while the calendar waits for no one. Add to that my “procraftinator” tendencies and you get yarnful knotty-ness that will soon be nice 🙂

And speaking of knots…

Did you know there’s a group on Ravelry that actually looks for and forward to untangling “opportunities” with yarny messes? Yup, you read that correctly!

      • I am tangle free today, thanks to a trip to the salon on Christmas Eve. It’s snowing at the moment and just in time for a cozy mug of cocoa. xo

        • Ooooh… tough to beat fresh snow and a trip to the salon on Christmas Eve! It’s been a while since you’ve had snow… no? So glad you’re enjoying a beautiful Chsitmas season… “Cozy” is the best part of winter! 🙂 ♥ ❤

          • Thank you very much for that. It was unseasonably warm this winter and then it all came down at once. Secretly, I am really looking forward to zipping into my new knee high boots (a girl is always prepared). xo

            Home we’ll go is my favorite of theirs, but my favorite cover of theirs is Somebody That I Used To Know that was the first one they did with all of them playing one guitar.

  7. Like your beautifully decorated Christmas door. It’s just a shame Santa comes down the chimney so may not have had a chance to enjoy it. 🙂

    • LoL Ho Ho… thanks Bun 🙂 Tough call for Santa, since we’ve a fireplace but no chimney! ‘Guess we’d need to leave a note on the roof to let him know our high-efficiency furnace is chimney-less 😉 But ahhh, if only there was a real Santa… I’d have asked him for a new iMac! 🙂 ♥ ❤
