Advent 2022 Wrap-Up! Two of my advents are shown here, with their 100g Xmas day skeins: @thecornerofcraft D&D Advent @louielolayarns Cozy Country Advent I already have plans for the Cozy Country one - it’s going to become a CatVent Sweater! I’m thinking of making a blanket with the D&D one but haven’t made any solid plans there yet. My @naturalfibrearts advent isn’t shown because there was a packing snafu and I ended up with the wrong colour for the final large skein. That’s getting fixed but it’s going to take a few days because shipping 📦 Photos of that will come sometime in the next week or so once it arrives! #AussieKnitter #AussieKnitters #SockYarn #YarnAdvent2022 #KnittingLife #ChristmasInAustralia #AdventKnitting #AdventProject https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmp3sw3p2An/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#YarnAdvent2022 Yarn Garland is looking lovely so far - and Princess likes it too! Usually she’s a yarn stealer but she hasn’t been doing it to these thankfully 😹 I’ve put the little rope bowl from the @louielolayarns advent to good use holding the dice from the @thecornerofcraft advent! For anyone concerned about spoilers - pics 1&2 are black and white, pics 3&4 are in colour. Days 1-14 of the calendars are in the images Advents: @thecornerofcraft D&D Advent @naturalfibrearts Comfort and Joy (Light) Advent @louielolayarns Cosy Country Advent #CosyCountryAdvent #SockYarn #AussieKnitter #AussieKnitters #ChristmasIsComing #KnittingLife https://www.instagram.com/p/CmJjdzUp_s1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🎶It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas🎶 Days 1-6 of my advent calendars this year! Swipe for spoilers 🫣 Such BEAUTIFUL colours, I can’t wait to see how the rest of the month comes out ❤️🌈 The little rope bowl that came with @louielolayarns was PERFECT for holding the dice from my @thecornerofcraft advent! Now I have a nice photo, I need to go put the unsecured skeins away or Princess will grab them and drag them around the house 😹 D&D Advent by @thecornerofcraft - on her Sturdy Sock base Cosy Country Advent by @louielolayarns - Merino Yak Nylon base Comfort & Joy Light Advent by @naturalfibrearts - on their regular Merino Nylon sock base #YarnAdvent2022 #ChristmasIsComing #AussieChristmas #ChristmasInSummer #ChristmasInAustralia #CraftyChristmas #SockYarn #AussieKnitter #AussieKnitters https://www.instagram.com/p/ClzsOZUSwK9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My Advent Corner is all ready for the 1st when I start opening my little parcels! This is all the Xmas decoration that I do at home really - for several reasons - 1. The first year we had Princess I decorated as usual, and I spent a very stressful December trying to stop her from eating tinsel and destroying the Xmas tree (she did end up breaking the tree) 2. Hubby installs Xmas decorations at shopping centers so he is FULLY done with Xmas by the time we get to the end of October 😂 he was never particularly fussed over Xmas but now he’s VERY bahumbug 3. Small house = minimal functional space for both decoration and storage of those decorations for the other 11 months of the year. This area also becomes our tree of sorts - we put all our wrapped gifts on the piano seat and it ends up looking quite cute (in my opinion) To make up for the lack of Xmas at home, I went HAM on decorations for work 😂🎄 I have already been wearing my very EXTRA Xmas headgear all week, so now I’m gonna spread the Xmas spirit around 🧑🏻‍🎄 My yarn advents this year are from @thecornerofcraft @naturalfibrearts and @louielolayarns - if you want to see how I use them as my decorations, check out my posts from previous christmases! #ChristmasInAustralia #AussieChristmas #ChristmasInSummer #YarnAdvent2022 #ChristmasIsComing https://www.instagram.com/p/CldPgRXJPtP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
