Yesterday I received a box from my SP!
And inside…
There are 7 balls of yarn in a silk blend boucle in a pretty pink! It’s actually enough to make something out of it! Of course my brain went straight to shawls. I don’t know why I always think of shawls with textured yarns. Huh, interesting. Anyways, I can’t wait to play with it, swatch it & then decide what would be the best project for it.
There was also a funny button filled snowman that will come in very handy! We like buttons around here! And last but not least, some happy valentine’s chocolate. They were all eaten after getting home from knitting last night. Don’t panic, there were 6 chocolates inside so I didn’t totally gorge myself.
I added a few pictures from last nights Java Station knit group. They can be found on the Yahoo group santabarbaraknitters photo page. Join the group if you haven’t already! If any of you are doing the knit olympics feel free to post your progress through the group so we can all see how you are doing!
I finished one of the legwarmers I am making and here you can see me wearing it with the cheapest shoes I have ever purchased $.49 (you read that right, I said “49 CENTS”!!!!!) at Ross of course!
Now this is how you will normally see it on me, under my jeans. I have a tendency to have freezing cold extremities year round, so these will be much used!
They make me happy & they make me happy!
