August Spectrum Wrap-Up
I am the wost swap hostess ever! My Hand-Dyed Project Spectrum Swap ended over a month ago, and I never showed you the yarn I received from Maylin! Here it is in many lovely neutral shades. She also sent me a package stuffed full of other wonderful goodies: cookies, tea, a silk scarf, and some incense! She puts me to shame!
Actually, I've been getting spoiled a lot lately. I found some cheap Cascade Fixation in a color KnitPastis had been looking for, so I sent it to her and look what I get in return!
Getting presents from her certainly wasn't my goal but I can't say that it bothers me!
I added all my new yarns to my yarn bin. It's getting a bit ridiculous. But I love it! Stay tuned for a picture - I'm trying to catch it in natural light.

Love the yarn! The first one is gorgeous and isn't KnitPastis the sweetest!

I have never seen the striped Patons like that - I love the way it looks! I think Patons is on sale at Michaels this week... maybe I should go!

Glad it all arrived safely. I think I am going to attempt Pomatomus with the yarn you sent me once I have knitted a few more socks first!

Thank you for the yarn you sent me and hope you can use the yarn I sent you:) I like the hand-dyed one too! Reminds me of carmel.

I know I'm a little behind on this comment, but I noticed you got a skein of the Fixation. There is a KAL for it. You can make a single pair of ankle socks with one skein. I have made three pairs this summer. They are wicked easy and quick to make.
