I got a package! I got a package!!
I got my package in the mail from my Lace Swap Pal, Amy! I love everything :o)
Here’s what I got: some very pretty pastel purple JaggerSpun Zephyr Wool-Silk with a total of 1200 yards, two patterns - Mountain Peaks Shawl and Shetland Garden Farose Shawl (which I had recently been drooling over online - you read my mind!), a flower calendar for 2007, Ghiradelli chocolate (mmm toffee!!), chocolate covered apricots, stitch markers, and At Knit’s End: Meditations for Women who Knit too much by Stephanie Pear-McPhee (the one book I don’t have by her!). You did a wonderful job and I love everything! Thank you so much!! :o)
Here’s everything:
Here’s a close up of the stitch markers:

Hi Lindsey,
Amy
I’m so sorry I forgot to send you info about the yarn! It’s JaggerSpun Zephyr Wool-Silk and each cone is 600 yards. Here’s more info on the yarn - http://www.jaggeryarn.com/stock_sales/stock_sales_zypher.asp
I’m so glad you like the goodies! The apricots are from a local farm and then hand dipped at a local family run chocolate shop… mmmm - one of my favorite treats! I’m so happy that the patterns were on the mark for you… and I hope you enjoy knitting them - I’ll be keeping an eye out for the finished product someday!
Yay, you! Great package, and great closeup!
I came across your blog on the Odessa knitalong…you have some great projects and links and photos. Thanks for sharing in such an inspiring way. I’ve just added Liesel to my scarf list and Pomatomus and Baudelaire to my sock list.
