Secret Pal 11 Reveal
Posted By Laura on December 2, 2007
Lots to share with you. First of all, though, may I introduce you to my Secret Pal 11. Her name is Rachel and lives over at Knit Obsession. I recently received my ‘reveal’ package and it was absolutely wonderful.
The box was full to the brim of goodies! And not just for me. Rachel sent some yummy treats and a cute toy for my cats. Charlie wasn’t that fussed, but he is extremely fussy and, dare I say it, more like a dog! Suzy and Missy have both had a little munch and play though. I’ve had to put the treats away incase the naughty minxes decide to attack them! The cats say Thank You!
My goodies included a wonderful box of Fuzzy Felt (which is just fantastic – Fuzzy Felt is the best!), a pair of hand knit socks, 2 (yes 2!) hand knit scarves, stitch markers, wonderful books, card making things, ribbon, sticky notes, cat things …. oh and some gorgeous yarn!
First hank that I cam across was from Fyberspates. I have to admit that I have been eyeing Fyberspates for a while!
What gorgeous colours they are! It is 100% Bluefaced Leicester Wool in purples and pinks. I don’t know what I am going to make with it yet, though. I shall have a look through Ravelry in a bit, methinks.
But there wasn’t just one hank of sock yarn. Noooooo. There were 2! The second one is from Araucania Yarns, which is hand dyed Chilean yarn. It’s absolutely gorgeous.
How beautiful is it?! It’s 75% wool, 25% polyamide. How beautiful ![]()
I am extremely lucky. Thank you so much Rachel. I have had a blast this SP round ![]()
My reveal parcel for my pal has not been sent yet. I have only organised half of it. I have not been able to organise the other half of it because of a hula hooping incident at school, which has had me laid up on the couch with a horrible sprained ankle
It *has* meant I can do lots of knitting, which I shall post about later tonight.
Oh I also love those colors! The first one most especially!
Wow, thats a lovely box of gifts! I love Fyberspates yarn, I have lots in my stash, just haven’t got round to knitting with it!
Hello! Thanks so much for my parcel – I’ll take some photos and blog about it asap. I’ve had a good look through the magazine tonight – sitting in front of a nice roaring fire
Can’t wait to try out the lovely malabrigo yarn too – just need to find a nice pattern.
