What an awesome package!!! I can't even believe how nice it was. Here's some pics...but let me describe the wonders that were in store for me - first and foremost, the most fantastic knit and felted bag - a BIG bag that can fit all my knitting, not just socks! 4 balls of great Rowan yarn for the Clock Sock pattern in Folk Socks - she gave me the Folk Socks book, with a HP bookmark to mark my place!! This is awesome, because I'm in the SCA and I've heard great things about this book from the person who taught me how to knit. The yarn is in a nice rich red, which has made my husband claim it as HIS yarn to make HIS socks. Also, the stitch markers she sent me were just great - they had dragons and trees, lions and Gryffindor crests!! I love them! Plus, there were a ton of other goodies, like candy and a hand embroidered Goblet of Fire stitch marker tin - OH! and a hand made Gryffindor Needle Case, which I really needed!! YAY!!! Emma, you really, really outdid yourself!!! I hope I'm not forgetting anything - I might be, there was just so much stuff in my package!

Just wanted to let you know that I'm still planning on sending out the prizes that are due for this swap. My finances have been unbelievable bad these last couple of months. Even scrounging up gas and grocery money has been hard. So, please don't give up hope!!!

What a great reward for making it through another Monday. I love what you sent me, Laurie Ann! There is GORGEOUS yarn from Knit Piks in Ravenclaw colors...so soft! A set of Brittany needles in size 3 and wonderful ebony needles in size 1. Brittany is one of my favorite brands. I've never tried the ebony needles so it will be fun to have something new to experiment with.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5lsE8SqZYlafpAfg5xX9QRqde2gu-XcaGP2KRdm4s7YTYAOTNACFaFNYLZqFogsqAzq6iDhdsHi61Cw1AxRMLWPWK7G4wwFsnq2FO6fHEME6SFh8-m2zxsc_HX8omGpH8ZN9AO7YD5_M/s1600-h/hsks3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142555817901097714" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 189px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 250px" height="273" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5lsE8SqZYlafpAfg5xX9QRqde2gu-XcaGP2KRdm4s7YTYAOTNACFaFNYLZqFogsqAzq6iDhdsHi61Cw1AxRMLWPWK7G4wwFsnq2FO6fHEME6SFh8-m2zxsc_HX8omGpH8ZN9AO7YD5_M/s320/hsks3.jpg" width="189" border="0" /></a><br /> And then there is the book Knitting on the Road. I immediately had to sit down and perruse that. I think I've already picked out the socks I am going to knit with the Ravenclaw yarn. I SO want to start tonight but there are those Christmas gifts I have to finish first! I'm still a novice sock knitter, but this book makes me aspire to be an "expert". Laurie Ann also included some beautiful Ravenclaw stitch markers. I really love the deep colors in the markers.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiED1KaXcXSawboTLu4SkrsrB75xdsZIr_JCiL2IpWmGCWg6ePngNLuU2Mi2fljZDi9BDfcSX9EeRslLUKLhD2JBURIliBRmo7Y3jVPRZI8C9sOu93AoDTZ_ydaU6E_6QMSXmyEhy4uuHg/s1600-h/hsks2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142555813606130402" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" height="189" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiED1KaXcXSawboTLu4SkrsrB75xdsZIr_JCiL2IpWmGCWg6ePngNLuU2Mi2fljZDi9BDfcSX9EeRslLUKLhD2JBURIliBRmo7Y3jVPRZI8C9sOu93AoDTZ_ydaU6E_6QMSXmyEhy4uuHg/s320/hsks2.jpg" width="251" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLch0b2jLf-5ucRWwK0ctoQmd2MbKcjim9yjVqgrEu7-dmrAVpCaZkt5XZMY5X2GEe0s71JOaZAMIrqh6XVZNwRKiZo790AVWK3jkxzEGS4Ms5LRe-FZ3TciAuk3zHnTNSXPXjEfFTPyg/s1600-h/hsks1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142555817901097730" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLch0b2jLf-5ucRWwK0ctoQmd2MbKcjim9yjVqgrEu7-dmrAVpCaZkt5XZMY5X2GEe0s71JOaZAMIrqh6XVZNwRKiZo790AVWK3jkxzEGS4Ms5LRe-FZ3TciAuk3zHnTNSXPXjEfFTPyg/s320/hsks1.jpg" border="0" /></a>But...the very, very BEST part of the whole packages were the MINNESOTA VIKINGS STITCH MARKERS!!!

The package included a skein of 100% super wash merino wool, hand dyed locally by Fleece Artist (who just happens to be right down the road). Also Catherine taught herself how to make stitch markers and practiced with Gryffindor house colors until there was a set she liked. She gathered together magic loop and Harry Potter-themed sock patterns. I think I'll try to Fawks pattern first. The goodies did not stop there, she sewed a brocade bag which can hold all my sock making materials for this project. The special material was cut from the same cloth she used to make an infant carrier for her son. Also added was a chocolate called Coffee Crisp (because she saw I was in Coffee Swap 3 also). The chocolate is only available in Canada so it was a treat for this girl from Hawaii. I also received US number one 32" circular needle from Knitpicks I can use to practice the Magic Loop. She also visited the Anne (of Green Gables) store on Prince Edward Island and sent me a pen (I'm in that knit and read along). Again, I appreciate this pal's work so much because I can see she put a lot of time and thought into her work. I only hope we can meet some day at a knitting event.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4287658305400764378.post-62920206412242265282007-11-19T13:54:00.001-08:002008-11-13T13:56:29.127-08:00Thank you Nancy!!!I just got the most amazing package ever!!

Firstly, can you all please make sure you post on your blog when you have received your parcel - and a thank you is always good :) The initial sign up states "You also have to acknowledge in a blog post when you've received your package from your swap partner within 3 days of receiving it". I know this hasn't always been done, so if you haven't, please do so as soon as - its only fair to your partner who has put a lot of time and effort into putting your gifts together.<br /><br />Also, if you haven't yet sent your parcel, please can you get a move on. The swap did finish on 31 October which is now two weeks ago. A few people are still waiting for parcels, and haven't yet heard from their partner. I know that often time gets away with us and real life tends to take over, but please in the least contact your pal to tell them when to expect their gift. If however there is a problem and you are unable to send a parcel, please let myself, Jenean or your house prefect know asap so that we can sort out angels for those without gifts.<br /><br />Thanks all!<br /><br />Adele<br />Hufflepuff PrefectPiglottiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05961495279414546848noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4287658305400764378.post-89099724236374460192007-11-13T21:04:00.000-08:002008-11-13T13:56:29.594-08:00My Owl Arrived<div style="text-align: center;">Thank you, Caren, for my wonderful package.
