Yarn from heaven

So yesterday was a very interesting day. I set out for my LYS and to meet a couple of friends for lunch later then I wanted. As I was leaving I realized I hadn't checked the mail the day before, so I stopped and did that and found a package for me. It's always nice to get a package, especially when it is unexpected. Inside the package was 2 skeins of this...I have no idea who decided I needed a yarn pick-me-up since so far no one has taken credit and there was no note in the package. I have a feeling I know who it might be. So, if you are the one, then THANK YOU!!!! It's beautiful and I love it and it made me smile, still does.

Now, as I told everyone at the yarn shop, when the yarn gods smile and send you yarn from the heavens you are REQUIRED to start a project. I looked through the patterns over on Ravelry, and decided on Nelly. I think it will be just the right look. I'm doing mine on a size 7 needle to get the feel I wanted. Here's how it looks so far.Oh and if you want some of this yarny goodness for yourself I recommend you go visit Twisted Fiber's shop and purchase yourself some. I'm planning on getting more when the elusive job finally comes along.

After all that goodness you know something has to not go well. Tonight I'm trying to print stuff for tomorrow. Of course I ran out of ink, on BOTH my printers and I can't finish. So, I'll do what I can and forget about the other. I'm very upset, but I did put it off until the day before and that's what I get for procrastinating.

Before I forget my friend Melody is having a contest over on her blog. Go see the yarny goodness and get yourself entered.

  2. I did read your post that said you never tried twisted fiber and that you would when you found your next job. So why wait? I tried to pick out a colour I thought would look good on you.

    Enjoy!
    Happy Knitting!
