Office Christmas Eve Pot Luck

After all the arrivals, consumption and enjoyment, I caught a quick pic of the still groaning board and the santa tracker with no one else in the photo -

Merry Carding

One of my favourite Christmas gifts this year is a new set of hand cards. I was inspired to use them. 

Happy Christmas!

Christmas Tree Hunt

 We all love the smell of a sub-Alpine Fir - it smells like the essential oil of balsam (essentially the same tree). Getting one requires a bit of a trek, because you need to get high enough to be in their growth habitat, the sub-alpine. We trucked our way out past Carcross along the highway looking to spot likely trees. We found a great patch near the BC border. We weren't the first to harvest there, a couple trees had been topped before, growing a second lovely Christmas tree.

 The intrepid hunters return!

Christmas Wish

I wished for a white Christmas this year - it was looking very brown/grey. I got my wish! 

It is snowing 🥳

Van Duesen Festival of Lights

Wildlife Window Dressing

This shop in Mount Pleasant (Main Street) has this wonderful window display that looked like taxidermy but was felted wool. 

A New Christmas Tradition

I think it is a new Christmas tradition to make Christmas cookies and watch Harry Potter movies.

Yarn pics

Just a few pictures I took for an upcoming sale. This past year was pretty productive for yarn spinning.
