December Days

We celebrate Hanukkah as well as Christmas, and this year it started early, on December 1st.  We started our Advent calendar the same day, and I came down with the flu the next.  This week it is still Hanukkah and Advent and we also have Aaron’s birthday.  I’m happy to be a part of the lovely Handmade Holidays and a stocking stuffer swap.  But this year I’ve taken the procrastination rather far even for me.  Blogging will undoubtedly lag; let us hope other responsibilities do not.

This is the yarn that is meant to be for Aaron’s birthday present.  I’m still working on untangling it. He has been forewarned that his gift may be late this year.  He was neither upset nor surprised.

I’m trying to look at this as a puzzle, a fun project, a meditation of sorts.  I’m trying not to see it as a metaphor of any sort.
