Swap Goodies!!

I was in a swap on my friend Grace's blog.  My box is going out to be mailed tomorrow. (Grace's post office closes at 730 - mine at 4 - what's up with that?) So since my swap was done I opened my box from Kathy B.



A handknit cloth, the only brand of instant coffee I drink, a haiku, a lolly, 4 skeins of the Calypso yarn, a hank of ultra alpaca with a matching button! And the pattern for the Great Adirondack Scarf.

Thank you soo much Kathy B! I love it!! And thank you Gracie for running the swap!

More precious than gems

Harder to pick than lotto

True friends are priceless.

 

you understand me?

know my foibles and not care?

love me anyway? 

yarn.....

I got these mini skeins (bigger than the mini skeins I've been swapping) from defygravity on etsy.

There is Sesame St


Discworld


And magic yarn.  It's called too many muppets... and since there can never be too many Muppets it can't exist.. but it does exist... but it can't ... but it does...

We were discussing hexipuffs (or in my case hexiflats) in the Go Fast Knit Left group on ravelry.  One of the other members , Beth said she wasn't going to be assimilated - but she had a scrap sock yarn if anyone wanted.  I wasn't sure if she was serious or not - but she was .  Look at what she sent me:



The 2 flats in front are already knit up from her gift ( I know I took a picture- I must have deleted it off of my phone before I uploaded it to flickr. I can't believe how generous she is!  I am sending her a package of feltable yarn scraps as she makes felted slippers.  She also sent a whole bunch of Werther caramels... I may have one or two left... . 

I finished my Oscar hat!

It's for a chemo cap for  little kid.  Won't be mailing until the end of the month because I want to make a cookie monster!

A visionary

He knew what toys we would want

We will miss your dreams.

Indecision

I want to make a new purse.  I found these glass cow heads to use on it. But I don't know what color I want to make the bag. And I really love these, so I bought them all!

Does anyone have a suggestion for a herd of extra heads?  They are way too heavy for earrings at least for my ears.
