Couple Things...

Just a couple things I wanted to share...

First off, I read about this from another blogger and wanted to share! Help this grad student out with her thesis by taking a simple survey!

Secondly, I received a package today! I am in a group on rav called Just Yarn Swap. The group has a different themed swap every month and this month was for Newbies. I have never participated in a swap before and I would like to say that my first experience has been WONDERFUL!!!

My amazing swap buddy MmmmmalebrigoMel sent the most wonderful package! It included 4 skeins of 100% merino from Twisted Sisters (located in CA), 2 skeins of recycled cotton and 2 skeins of a mosaic twist (the multi-colored ones), a pattern for Ballet Flats and a tote bag. How did she know I collect tote bags? I had to include the wrapping paper, it's a cable print! How neat is that! She did a wonderful job and I can't wait to send her package too!

Yarn swaps pretty much ROCK!

  1. I love swaps! be careful though they can get addicting fast. And then they can get expensive =(. Thanks for putting the link up about the craft book project!

  2. Yes, thank you for posting the link! I'm the grad student and I'm so glad you found my project. I'm trying to get as many responses as I can--this is great!
