Package Recieved

Posted in Package at 6:46 pm by knitwhimsies

I received my package shortly after the first of this month from Tiffany / princessmorange. I was so busy I couldn’t get to it so to be fair I just now opened the package since I was able to mail mine off.

My theme was monkeys and tea. I received a tea pot and cup from Japan. Noro yarn and Paton’s sock yarn, 4 very long rosewood sock needles with warning from swap partner to be careful =-); various candies and royal milk tea…that I tried immediately and it was delicious; and some cute monkeys.Jana / piperdoodle

Irish Eyes (well, Texan Eyes) are smiling

Posted in Uncategorized tagged , at 1:13 pm by hissyknit

Our super-duper hostess, Kim, chose Ireland as her mystery theme.  Is this not the coolest package ever?

A pattern for an Irish Hiking scarf, yummy yarn in such a beautiful color, needles to start and cable, chocolate, Irish breakfast tea, an Irish blessing,  and the best mug in the world. 

Thanks again, Kim for a wonderful package and hosting this!  I can’t wait for the next one.

 PS. Apparently, I’m a knucklehead because I can’t get the photo to load so please head over to www.hissyknit.blogspot.com to drool over the package.

Anita send me the most fabulous tea-themed package … gorgeous yarn along with the patterns and needles (!!) for not one but two projects; a candle, soap, body lotion, two packages of tea, a sheepy tape measure, a note pad, and she even thoughtfully included treats for my menagerie. What a great package from a fabulous partner. Thank you again, Anita — I’d enjoyed our chats from the start of the swap, and this package just confirms your status as an Officially Fabulous Swap Partner.

I received my package today.

The theme chosen for me by my lovely partner Mollie was SUNSET.

I’m posting a photo, but please keep in mind that the colors are completely inaccurate (my apartment has terrible lighting). The colorways are much more beautiful in real life.

Two skeins of yarn hand-dyed especially for me – a heavy DK merino and a merino/nylon sock yarn. Patterns for both yarns: Calorimetry and Diagonal Rib Socks. Lovely beaded stitch markers (made for me by Mollie, again). Bamboo needles. Wool wash. All in all, an absolutely lovely parcel. Thank you so much, Mollie!
