Knitters Coffee Swap 4

Here is a pic of my wonderful package. I got it last week. Sooo many wonderful things in it. Here they are:



The sock yarn is great. I love Socks that rock, but it isn't easy to get here. And than a skein from the Sock Club is much greater. And the little one is sooooo cute. The brownies have been yummy. Thank you again.

Secret Pal package

I totally forgot to post a picture of my wonderful Secret Pal package, what I received a little time ago. Thank you my Secret Pal for the wonderful package. Here you can see what I got for wonderful stuff.

Amazing Lace Swap on Ravelry

Today I got my wonderful package from the Amazing Lace Swap on Ravelry. My swappie but in soooooooo many nice things. The wool is so greatful. She also put in three great patterns. I'm sure that I will knit soon one of the shawls with the wool. See what I got.

Socks nr. 6+7 / 2009

Here are the socks of the last week. At the moment I'm really fast in knitting the socks. The patterns are from Knitting with handpainted yarn. In the book are many nice patterns.


This is the Potpourri pattern. The wool is from Drachenwolle. The yellow looks better in real, the weather wasn't good to make photos.


And this is the Schooner pattern, I don't make the knots on it, as I don't like them. The wool is from Tausendschön and was the unicum from January, called "Drei Könige"
