(OR Warm Ewe Up Winter Swap Package #2)
Isn’t this the funniest thing? It’s a bank!

I will definitely be putting my change here! How clever!

My swap partner was so thoughtful. She included something chicken-related, knitting-related, chocolate, yarn, some post-its with lovely flower sketches and the bank.

The plate is beautiful!

And so is the yarn! It’s Art Yarns Super Merino in color 115 (aka RED).

Thank you partner! I can’t wait to find out who you are!

(Otherwise known as the Autumn Sock or Scarf Swap of 2008)

Many thanks to the crafty Bunkybobo who sent me a wonderful ASSS08 swap box.

She included tea and taffy, some scent samples from Happy Housewife, lavendar soap, lip balm that she made herself, a Sharpie (! love the Sharpies!), a pattern from KnitSpot (Shifty) and yarn of course.

But let’s focus on that yarn a second, shall we? She dyed this herself. I love it. The colors are very fall-y and warm and just ….well… GREAT! She has an Etsy shop and I highly suggest you check out some of those yarns.

Thank you Bunkybobo!!!!!

This is what I have been calling the Ravelry Summer Caffeine swap. The box was HUGE and filled to the brim. And the worst part is I left the card at my desk at work and can’t remember who sent it to me!

She sent Zephyr stitch markers. They are so light!

Soap and lotion.

Mango tea, chocolate covered almonds and COFFEE that smells absolutely amazing.

A beautiful mug.

She knit me a hat using Knitspot’s “Hot Waffles” pattern. She also sent me a matching skein of Cascade 220 to complete the matching gloves!

Socks that Rock Braun’s Woods. This color has been on my wishlist since it came out! I am so excited!

Knitted Wit “Mow Your Lawn.” This is a huge skein and will be perfect for the pattern she sent me.

2 skeins of Shibui Sock yarn in a wonderful blue.

And a beautiful scarf pattern she managed to get autographed by the designer.

So thank you MmarthaG from Vancouver! I absolutely love everything you sent to me!
