Hola Everyone! I want to share my latest yarnie blessing! Look what my JH Sister sent to me! It is amazing…made me teary, lol, because it is PERFECT. I present this lovely package to all of you my friends from a dear friend on Ravelry who shares my admiration and support for the dear Lady Hillary….
These are the wonders that my lovely friend sent me for our Christmas Swap. Am I blessed or what?! She sent me everything I could ever want and things I have lusted after and just haven’t gotten for myself. I lurve you JH Sister! Thank you!
What you are looking at is:
Cables for my KP circs, Harmony Circ tips!!! I have lusted these for a while! Row counter, stitch markers, embroidery needles, yummy amethyst cotton yarn, Lindt Milk Chocolate, Bath Fizzers in Lavender, Lavender linen spray, an adorable pattern book (that I plan to use to make goodies for my daughters), and everything came in the coolest and most beautiful drawstring bags to keep them safe in my chaotic knittng bags, lol.
Again, thank you dear friend for a wonderful gift swap and the obvious thought you put into it, you really made my week!
On the Knitting front, this is one of the things I have been playing with…
I call it the “Slot Scarf”, if you look at the far top end you will see a piece that is knit side to side hanging from the edge of the rest of the scarf, that is knit part of the way with a slight upward increase and then abandoned to knit the scarf body, once I finished knitting the body lengthwise, I will attach the side to side knitting like a selvedge would be connected, either with an invisible stitch or knit them together, we shall see.
The recipient can than wrap it around their neck, take the body tail and pull it through the “slot” and it will keep it comfortably, and neatly in place. I may end up making a few of these for a few other folks for Christmas.
There has been more dying and by the graces the rest of my yarn should be here by mid-week next week. It is crazy busy and amazingly satisfying, to have so many loving people want my yarn and create beautiful things from it. The last of the yarn is my base for my Vampire line of socks and I am hoping to get it all dyed, packed and shipped off to customers and “My Sister’s Whimsy” before Christmas so, let the clock tick, I got a deadline to meet! giggle
Take good care of each other and “Keep On Clickin’”
