I'm Spoiled!

I have been seriously spoiled this summer by two great Secret Pals. A box of incredible goodies arrived from my SP8 Pal. It was packed with stuff, including a skein of gorgeous Lorna's Lace, which I've always wanted to give a try... PLUS some beautiful soap her sister made (most of which has already been distributed in my bathrooms)... PLUS an enormous bar of chocolate (and yes, that wrapper in the photo is Empty!)... PLUS gardener's soap... PLUS kitty toys ... AND... the PIECES DE RESISTANCE - beautifully hand-knit, blue alpaca wristies for my long, skinny arms, which are always exposed in the cold weather. As you can see, they fit beautifully! Thanks, pal!

I'm quite impressed with your knitting, and those wristies give me a good reason to look forward to the cold weather. Plus they will leave my fingers free to knit. (I have a few secret projects going on, myself!)

NEXT, my One Skein Secret Pal sent me a beautiful skein of Peace Fleece.
(Big Coincidence: I sent my One Skein Secret Pal a Peace Fleece skein, too. She's already turned it into a gorgeous leaf-shaped cravat!) I love knitting with Peace Fleece; it feels great in your hands, it behaves itself, the colors are gorgeous, plus it's from Maine! This One Skein Pal has played some tricks on me, sending me packages from around the country (the pal gets around!). I will save her latest offerings for my next post. But I just love this blue and think it might make an asymmetrical cabled hat OR the cabled footies (for me, of course!) from the One Skein book. Thanks again!
