My Apres Christmas Sock Swap package has arrived!
I suppose it is really a “parcel” since it was mailed in the UK.
Bryony was completely honest on the customs form, and mailed socks, yarn and chocolate! The Socrates yarn was originally intended for my Apres Socks, but due to circumstances beyond control, the vibrant Posh Yarn (I wish I had never seen their online store – the colors make my knees weak) became socks for me instead. This is more than fine with me: I have a pair to wear and a pair to make! The pink bunny for Ellie is unbelievably soft and, of course, no swap is complete without candy.
I’ll try to lose that last five pounds tomorrow.
There is a tiny bit of the in progress May Day Socks on the left. I probably need to pick up the pace on those, April won’t last forever.
Thank you so much, Bryony! And many many thanks to Abigail for hosting such a great swap!
I love, love, love those green socks. Must go searching for yarn on the Internet immediately! 😉
So glad everything arrived in one piece and am quite impressed at the lack of squashing on the choccies (and the speed at which they were consumed ;D), especially with the cramming of things into the envelope! VERY glad they fit too! I thought the bunny blankie was cute because while she is small she can grip/suck/chew the ends, and then when she grows up a bit she can snuggle in it and play with it 🙂
And the good thing about Posh Yarn – you can only buy once a week and when they are gone, they are gone, which definitely helps on the pocket 😉 Eva is also a GORGEOUS yarn they have on there… Be warned…
Such a sweet swap package.
that bunny is so huggable…. and the yarn = scrumptious.
What a fabulous swap package!
Lovely goodies. Posh yarn is at the top of my list of yarn I’d love to have. I wish the exchange rate would improve! Darn recession!
