I impulse bought this yarn – it was red and green, but not too red and green, had some grey and just enough sparkle. It was sophisticated Christmas yarn! I squirreled it away with every intent of whipping up something that was Christmas, but not TOO Christmas for the holidays. Flash forward to December 19th when I suddenly remembered the stashed yarn and my intentions for it. Yikes. Shockingly, I was ahead in my Christmas baking game and had enough time to whip up a little something in time for the holidays. I’m sharing it with you – Happy Christmas and Happy Stitching!
