but in a good way. Today I picked up a package from Kimberly, my Knitter’s Treat Exchange spoiler and she was unbelievably generous.
Where to begin?
~ A copy of Vogue Knitting which is full of beautiful patterns as well as some great reviews regarding yarns.
~The most adorable felted Koala Pattern from Fiber Trends along with all of the yarn will now be cast on during the weekend knitting get away.
~Gorgeous Cherry Tree Hill Sock yarn in the Peacock colorway… destined to become Monkey Socks.
~Two large bags of coffee, one is “Snick A Doodle” and the other is “Vanilla Hazlenut”.
~A bottle of Autocrat Coffee Syrup… a local product from Rhode Island which I’ve yet to try
~A tin of Winter Solstace scented Heal My Hands . I am a loyal HMH customer, but to date I’ve only used the unscented and the Lavender Mint. This new smell is light and delightful.
~A bottle of Vanilla Lace body lotion which smells as wonderful as its name.
~2 of the largest bars of chocolate I’ve ever seen in my life. They are the size of small surfboards and they’ll accompany me on the weekend trip.
~A much-needed magnetic notepad with a matching picture frame
~A small pocket knife
~A box of chocolate “Rocks” from Rhode Island. I swear these do not look like candy, they really do look like rocks!
~A very pretty card with a wonderful letter. I can’t wait to go listen to her friend, Guido’s, podcast over at “It’s a Purl Man” to unravel a mystery behind one of the items (I don’t know which item until I hear the podcast). THANK YOU Kimberly. I am very grateful and completely in awe of your kindness and of the amazing gifts.
