Santa and I have a gift for you
I invite you to Join me each week this month (December 2025) on my podcast (firefly’s Hatful of Yarns) as I embark on an immersive journey through the entire original text of Charles Dickens’ timeless and enchanting story, A Christmas Carol. The podcast is free, requiring no subscription, special equipment, or app in order to listen to and enjoy it. You can listen right here on my website by –> clicking here <– though it is also available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and many other podcast platforms.
This series is a labor of love I have undertaken entirely on my own as the narrator, producer, director, sound editor, etc.
Each Wednesday morning through Christmas Eve I am releasing one of my four-part series for your holiday enjoyment. If you are a fiber loving knitter or crocheter, I hope my readings will be something you listen to as you work on last minute Chirstmas gifts and that it will make your holiday season more merry.
Please also feel free to share the podcast with friends or family, near or far, who might also enjoy this experience.
On December 3rd I released Episode 8, a reading of “Stave One – Marley’s Ghost”, where we meet the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge on a foggy Christmas Eve in Victorian London. As the chill of winter sets in, Scrooge’s world is shaken by the eerie apparition of his long-deceased partner, Jacob Marley, who delivers a dire warning from beyond the grave.
On December 10th I released Episode 9, a reading of “Stave Two – The First of the Three Spirits”, in which Ebenezer Scrooge awakens to his first supernatural visitor: the ethereal Ghost of Christmas Past. Journey back through time as Scrooge revisits poignant moments from his youth, lost love, and the choices that hardened his heart, setting the stage for his potential redemption.
Tune in today and let the spirits of Christmas enrich your own holiday mood!
December 17th will be a release of Episode 10, a reading of “Stave Three – The Second of the Three Spirits”, following by Episode 11 on December 24th with a reading of both “Stave Four – The Last of the Spirits”, and “Stave Five – The End of It”.
Also on Christmas Eve I will release a bonus episode with a reading of “A Visit from St. Nicholas” (aka “The Night Before Christmas” by Clement Clarke Moore.
May your days be Merry and Bright! ~ firefly
