I got the most amazing box earlier this week.
How pretty! And chock full of stuff!
The idea of the swap was to use yarn purchased from The Loopy Ewe to make something and send to your swap partner.
Isn’t this hat beautiful?
My picture in no way does it justice. It’s really soft, beautiful, and, if I do say so myself, cute on me.
Here’s the other fabulous things that I got in the box from my very generous partner:
I love the notecards and they will come in handy. I’ve always teased my mom about sending things and not putting in a note or anything. I think I’m worse; I send things and use a ratty piece of notebook paper or some other scrap. These notecards will give me a little class. And, see that yarn? Yeah, that’s 90+ grams that was leftover from the hat. That’s basically a whole pair of socks. The stitchmarkers were made personally by my partner. Since I’ve gotten into lace knitting, I’ve found myself buying lots of pretty stitchmarkers. The body butter is delicious. Also included was a cute little notebook and pen, both of which are the perfect size to slip into one of my many knitting bags. Some of you know that I have a thing for notebooks and pens; I just can’t get enough of them. I also got Dove Dark Chocolate Promises, which are my favorite of all time. I have a picture, but it has a bad flash thing going on. Needless to say, I haven’t eaten them all, yet. I get about 2-3 a night, as a little treat.
Thank you so much, Andrea!
