Pickled red cabbage

[NogginOfRum]

When should i be making my pickled red cabbage?

I want it available to eat over the christmas period but have no idea how long it keeps for.

Do i do it now or closer to christmas?

my dad did all his pickling in november, I can't stand vinegar so I never took that much an interest in it.
