THANK YOU!!! Mary Catharine!

I got my package yesterday from Mary Catharine!! It's so great. I love everything that she sent.

Here's a preview. If you want to see more pictures check on my blog.


It's so great!! Happy Swapping!!

Thank You Julianne!!!

An owl landed on my front steps on Friday. It was rather tired from carrying my package from Julianne. She totally spoiled me! Thank you so much Julianne!!! He's a shot of the whole lot. If you can't tell what all is there or you want to see more (you really should see it all) I have posted about how fabulous Juli is on my blog.

Teaser for Natalie M.

Up here in Canada there have been some problems with the owl post coming from the US but I think that everything is all sorted and by the start of next week all of your goodies should be up here and ready to ship. The perfect yarn for a pair of Gryffindor socks should be on the way to you in no time. I've been diligently working on your bag - I hope you like it although I may have taken the Gryffindor theme over the top :) Happy Knitting!!

Reminder to First Years and Teaser for Michelle

Reminder to all of our first years- please use this space (as well as your blog) to leave notes to your partner about your progress- either on your bag or getting the rest of the kit. It adds to the anticipation- and lets them know that you are making progress. Now, on to my notice:

I got the yarn today- and I have to say that I don't think that I've ever gotten this nice of yarn before. But, I saw it, and I loved it! I think it will work great with the pattern I found. So, fingers are crossed that I'll win the needles on ebay (and fingers crossed that I don't keep them- I won't, but I will be tempted)- cause they are a couple dollars cheaper. But, then it is just to make the bag, get some "treats" and my package will be off! I wonder if Michelle likes dark or milk chocolate? Maybe I'll get both- just to be safe. :-)

Happy Monday!
