Knitter’s Tea Swap 4 Pal!
Posted in Uncategorized on October 29, 2007 | 5 Comments »
Her name is Helena of IK2 and she rocks. Not only did she dye beautiful yarn for me, but she’s from Australia and sent me a fantastic package that really reflects her country. She sent me the really cool tea towel (I think!) that is under the rest of the contents. She also [...]

This month’s Rockin’ Sock Club package was definitely my style. I love the darkness of it, the depths and shades of color that you can see in the sunlight. Plus, with a pattern created by Stephanie Pearl McPhee that really trips my trigger, I can see myself casting on for this pair of socks quickly. [...]

I have wireless. I did not expect wireless, and thus did not pack the cardreader.
