Can you blame me? Friend Chris, from Briar Rose Fibers just dyed some new yarn, Joyful, in the last week or so and posted it. I could not resist a new yarn to me. And I don't have a green in my Stash, well, you know the rest of the story.
Unfortunately, my monitor is showing this to be a bit brighter than it really is, it is a tad darker than the picture comes out. You know I'll be trying to decide what to knit out of it as soon as I finish this blog post don't you?! The yarn is 100% polwarth wool, with a gauge of 24 stitches to four inches, so around a DKish. There are about 640 yards to each skein and I have 3 skeins so I can knit almost anything I want to out of it. Problem is what?
Also, in the mail today, was some super cool yarn from a vendor that Becky turned me onto. The only thing is, I had planned on buying two yarns from the vendor, and when I opened the box, I realized I had only order one of them.
I just love it when a vendor does something funky with their packaging, this is how the box came. A heart in yarn!
And not in today's mail but earlier this week, my Peanuts nightgown and robe showed up from The Vermont Country Store. These are so cool and I can't wait to wear them. Dear Jane from Knitting Camp sent me the link because she knows how much I like Snoopy and well they were mine!
I love it when the Postman Cometh, don't you? I can hardly wait for tomorrow's mail!
