That is exactly how I feel!! As I sit here listening to the evening rain outside and smelling the delightful scent of coconut as I type this post.
I had a little heads up to be on the look out for this
YEP! Another package! LOL And this time I was not even expecting it!! This is from my THIRD Secret Pal #10 Angel!!! Are you kidding me?!?
So I opened up the package to find this c.u.t.e card! This is my 1st knitting greeting card!!! She took notice I am into cards like that (esp. knitting ones now)!! Isn't it adorable!
Inside the note reads:
I'm so sorry this took so long.
I'm so sorry this took so long.
Sometimes getting to the post office is the hardest task on my list.
Out of guilt and with a sincere wish to make your Secret Pal experience better, I'm including a Cookie A sock pattern (*Insert here - CrimsonPurl beginning to squeal!*)
and some lovely Mountain Colors sock yarn in a rich red colourway (OMG!) that should suit you just fine (YES!!).
Have a blessed day and happy knitting!
XOXO Anti M - Marin
I had no idea I would have 3 angels! Count them uno, dos, tres!
So I was clueless that I was suppose to be expecting another package. No apologies needed AT.ALL! I was just thrilled to get a surprise in the mail as far as I was concerned! This is awesome!!
Just wonderful!!
So as I tried not to rip thru the package! LOL I saw my coveted Cookie A pattern!!
And then pulled out all 350 yards of the very luscious Mountain Colors Hand painted Yarn in Ruby River!
Are you kidding me? That is some (very unnecessary) apology man!! Look at it!!
It is 60% superwash wool, 25% Mohair, and 15% Nylon. The color is much richer than the picture is showing and is uber soft! This will be my first time having Mountain Colors in my stash (that is slowly growing! :op)
As if this wasn't enough!! There was more!
I love burning oils (b/c they are smokeless and give off a nice long lasting scent), and even more so I love The B.ody Shop!!How about Marin must have known I had wanted another oil burner (that ironically matches my home decor! Look at the cute droplet!!), ran out of tea lights LOL! Haha! AND that my favorite oil burning scent is coconut!! Dang she really does pay attention!! I LOVE IT!!! And I dare not forget the stylish post-it notes! Check them out! :o)
As I look thru my eight page Cookie A German Stocking pattern Haha!! (Ooh this is so when I grow up in knitting! Haha!) I discovered I missed something else!! Yep!
A second sock pattern called Waterfall.
Ooh yeah this pattern is more my speed right now :opAnd I also know what I will be knitting up with this beautiful Mountain Colors yarn now.
Everything was just perfect! What a wonderful way to kick off my weekend!
You have certified me as one spoiled knitter! :o) Thank you!
