I swear with JB off work recovering - he keeps thinking I'm spending all his L&I money (which isn't much) shopping! But I haven't been. I just have lots of friends. Friends who decided when I had to give up most of my yarn budget to fix Abby that they would make sure I didn't go without yarn.
The second box this week came from
Cami. She had offered to send some of this yarn, but some was bonuses.
I was quite pleased to received the lovely little knitting bag. They looked much bigger when she showed them on her blog. A customer of Clementines is making the bags with wrapped clothes-line bases and fabric tops and they are being sold through Clementines. If you want one
- give her a call.
Bonus yarn in the box - Opal sock yarn in the color way "Good Morning City." This will make a lovely pair of socks for The Musical One - I think. She has to have superwash wool because she "forgets" and throws her socks in the washer and dryer. But she loves the bright colors and funky patterns. Too bad I've already finished a pair of socks to give her for Christmas this year :)
Finally - two balls of Crystal Palace Mini Mochi in color 103 which resembles wisteria (at least to me). It's all raspberry and purple with lots of greens. I'm thinking a pair of socks for me with a simple mock cable pattern. I might even start them soon as I just finished another pair of socks on Friday!

Pretty yarn. Have fun with it.
ReplyDeleteSooo, do the crack-bunnehs get to go to knitting next week. They get a little vicious if left unattended for stretches of time, so beware leaving sock projects alone with them. I shoulda warned you first, I 'spose. That bag is sturdy, though, so you can drag your crack-bunnehs *everywhere*. Glad you liked the yarn. I LOVED all the goodies you sent my way! C
ReplyDeleteIt does look like wysteria! Great package...
ReplyDeleteLove the goodies! Let me know what you think about the Mini Mochi!
ReplyDeleteGreat bag... and pretty yarn!
