An AWESOME knitted gift
I participated in a knitted gift exchange this year set up with the help of the knitter’s review forum. I knitted something for my ‘gift elf’ and she knitted something for me. We filled out a little questionnaire and exchanged info about our winter coat colors and the like. Well, I finished her gift this past weekend and sent it out on Tuesday. She sent mine out Monday and it came today. This was truly the best day of my knitting life.
The photos are: 1) the box containing the gift under my tree, 2) When I just opened the box, and 3) Yay! My gift!
She sent me a hat (with a pom pom!) and a mistake-rib scarf in beautiful hand dyed Lorna’s laces Shepherd worsted wool yarn. It is super soft–and look at the amazing colors! The scarf almost look like it has a cool plaid pattern. Definitely click on the photos for a closer look. And there are even two skeins of yarn for me to make something else for myself. Mittens? Legwarmers? Another hat? So much yarn, so little time!
Today was a good day!
