Last Saturday, the boyfriend and I packed up and took refuge at his parents house (they have a generator). But before we took off, a package from my secret pal arrived, and how sweet it was!
And I know I already hinted at it in the title to this post, but my pal really, really rocks!
You are looking at a lovely stole pattern from Anne Hanson of Knitspot. I love all of her designs and have many of them on my to-do list, but as yet I have not made a single one..for shame.The pattern is this one, absolutely beautiful.
But that's not all, she also included two massive skeins of Baruffa Cashwool in my favorite color. Each one of these babies sports over 1400 yards. That means I have enough to make the large stole, and have enough left over for another project.
And still I am not finished. =) She also sent the needles I would need to make the stole, Addi Lace ones at that.
To sum up, everything I need to make this stole my pal included in the package. How awesome is that? And it is taking every bit of my willpower to not wind up this yarn and start this project a.s.a.p. But considering I have a gazillion things in WIP mode, and I am trying to finish up as much as I start, I am trying to refrain.
Lets see how well that works, shall we?
(There was also a cute little Christmas card which I forgot to photo, and 2 large packs of Starbursts that got gobbled up. )
Thank you so much pal o' mine! I hope someone is treating you as well as you are treating me!!
