Well I got home from uni tonight to see this: oops on the camera skills but if u put your head on the side it looks right!!



A great package from my great SP.

I'm not sure if you can see all the goodies but there are:
A book of excuses (will come in handy for uni) LOL

I like this one: I would love to help with the housework but you're so good at it, it's like watching the creation of art. Another beer would be good. LOL

AND THIS ONE:
I can't possibly have made these purchases. I don't like clothes, music or food. HEHEHE

A red ball of the yummy alpaca for the love-heart shadow socks (i hope it will be enough- but u will have to let me know the distributer after the reveal)
A ball of Noro Kureyon in a great green colourway
My favourite new drink (what a great guess) hot chocolate powder with mint flavour (just add water) *its sooo yumm***
A really pretty writing set (and pencil)
some hello kitty candy with dispenser (so kitch its cool)
A bright red frog change purse
A cow whose tail is a tape measure (i love it)
Some yarn bobbins for my new adventures with fair ilse

AND
to top it all off 3 count them 3 skeins of red dmc perle 5 cotton and some gold pearl beads for some perditas. I can make one of each kind!!

So it may have been sitting in the Australia Post offices for longer than expected but a greatly appreciated and thoughtfully put together package
I LOVE IT

SP you are the best (oh and im keeping the wrapping paper)

Fabulous package! I hope it is enough yarn for those socks. It's a great color.

Yay! It got there!

I'm so glad that you like it. If the red looks like running out on the socks, lemme know. My LYS doesn't go through much of the alpaca, it will still be the same dye-lot.

I love the colour of those beads. I bought some for myself as well!

The shop selling the tape measures...eeee...I went in there, and they didn't have any. Then I went back, and they had a whole bucket. I don't actually know what they were thinking, hiding them from me!

I figured that if you were getting a late package, you deserved not just one excuse, but a whole book. I realised not long after I sent it that I'd forgotten to put something in, so it's gone into the pile for the August package...which will get there in August! It will! Well, barring more excuses :-D

Such an awesome package that you received! I'm already quite curious to see what you're going to make with the yarn! Happy Knitting!
