I can't believe how close Christmas is now. In ASDA they have a giant tree with a sign saying how many sleeps until Christmas and the Christmas market is back in the centre of Liverpool.
I'm hoping to get a chance to put up my little Christmas tree on Saturday but we have The Boy's little brother coming to stay so I don't know when I will find time - Friday is just too early isn't it?
This year I've decided to crochet an advent calendar made of little stockings using this pattern (I just added the pattern to Ravelry here). I'm doing each day a different colour and sewing the numbers on.
I haven't got very far as I have so much uni work at the moment but I'm hoping to get lots of work done this afternoon to allow myself some crochet time later.
The Boy doesn't know that I'm making it so hopefully it'll be a nice surprise when he sees it. I also need to buy sweets and write some notes to put into the calendar - so much planning needed!
Looks like a great idea. You've certainly got enough in your stash to make 24 different coloured stockings. What a lovely surprise it will be for the boy.
