Can I just say that I have some of the BEST FRIENDS in the entire universe?!? I can say it & I will say it! I HAVE THE BEST FRIENDS!! And not just because they give me the most amazing gifts, but because they make me smile, laugh a lot and I have never felt so good around another group of women! Two such friends are Suzanne & Tracy. Tracy had us over last night for a little knittin’ get together. Tracy & I thought we would surprise Suzanne with a Christmas gift. ‘How fun’ we thought, ‘she will have no idea we are surprising her!’
Well she defenitely had the bigger stick on surprises! Our little gift of a leather attache case for her finishing of law school & Christmas didn’t compare to the goods she surprised us with! I will let Tracy show you her goods. Below are my gifts!!
2 hanks of Mongolian Cashmere 100%!! An amazing scarf made locally here in Santa Barbara and the most amazing brooch (the 3 of us having matching ones now, Suz is so thoughtful that way!). I already have the pattern picked & started for the cashmere!! I couldn’t resist last night when I got home!
I know this picture is blurry but in the light I had it was the best I could do without a flash. No nasty comments on it please, my digital camera is 5 years old! I think it does pretty well for its age!
It is the Morning Surf Scarf pattern. It’s a YO ripple pattern that will be perfect to show off the colors of the yarn & the softness. Plus cashmere is light weight but VERY warm so the open pattern is perfect! I cannot wait to work on it this morning!! I will knit more than normal today because I don’t have any housework to do other than about 15 loads of laundry! So it’s knit, knit, knit! WOOHOO!! I will be sure to have it at knitting on Thursday night at Java Station!
