Merry knitmas!

A very merry knitmas to all of you! I know I’m a bit early, but I don’t think there will be much time left the following days to post.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t believe that the holiday season is already here. I’m hardly prepared. What with the renovations of the house and all that, we haven’t even found the time to put up our tree yet. Although, I must say, there’s also an upside to that. We have two cats running around the house, and they see it as their personal challenge to knock out as many ornaments as they can by the time we get home from work. I think there’s record-breaking involved.

So, while I wasn’t even ready for this Christmas, I’m secretly looking forward to next year’s. By then, we’ll have a larger living room with enough space to actually put a tree, and we will be able to keep it cat-free when we’re not at home. It may still take a while, but I’ll conquer in the end!

Still, to be on the safe side, I’m going to stick with soft and stuffed Christmas decorations. I’ve learned to use those a few years ago and, to be honest, I love them. They make the tree look more cudly. But, I don’t have enough of them yet. So, by next year, I want it to be a very happy crochetmas. I want to make loads of ornaments myself. I’ve seen loads of nice patterns on Ravelry already. And, if you’re looking for inspiration, there’s Crochet every day by my fellow blogster Megan. She’s listed some very pretty ones on her to do list, and it’s a good start before diving into the endless waters of Ravelry.

Anyhow, I think I’d better set myself a reminder to get started somewhere in August, haha. But, until then, enjoy your presents, enjoy your family and – the most important one by far – enjoy all the desserts! Merry Christmas!
