Mail Calls Last Week❤️❤️❤️

 The week before Christmas brought a few mail calls I wanted to share with you.

Last Summer. Chris from Briar Rose Fibers crocheted this fantastic hanging for her porch.  Well, I immediately decided I needed/wanted to crochet one for my porch.

So, I reached out to Chris to see if I could get a kit to duplicate one for myself. 


And Chris being the sweetheart that she is, despite still battling health problems, dyed and sent it to me.  The yarns are even better in person!  Adding this to my project list for 2025, for sure!
 

Susan, my Knitting Camp table mate sent me this bag after attending an event where they received them.  She mentioned to someone that I would love this print and voila, she gave hers to Susan to send to me!




Unexpected gifts in the mail are so much fun and just make me smile, especially when they say don't open until the 25th, so I will have a little something under my tree to open.  (I'm a kid at heart for sure when it comes to Christmas)

And then to my surprise, I received a wonderful box in the mail, with a request to not open until the 25th, and I waited.  When I opened these hand knit sweaters, I just squealed and kept petting them.  What a labor of friendship!!  And the workmanship, well, just OY!  

It was a great mail week and made a special Christmas for sure!!
