"I not getting you yarn for Christmas! I don't want you knitting on Christmas Day."
Apparently I have been giving the impression - how, I can't imagine - that knitting is something I do frantically at the last minute for a gift or a contract or to wear yesterday and not while relaxing or being sociable.
But my reaction was to stare out at a bleak mental landscape in which Christmas Day does not afford me a single moment to sit down and relax and be sociable. Ack!
I recovered and smiled and nodded and thought "you're quite right, I should spin instead."
Speaking of which, my last installment in the Twisted Fiber Art fiber club arrived yesterday and I am in love:

The package also contained a sample of the other colourway for this month, in superwash Blue-Faced Leicester:
