SP11: w00t! :)
My SP11 Pal contacted me last week to let me know that my parcel was in the mail…wowzers! That didn’t take long…I’m still working on getting stuff together for the person I’m sending things to!
At any rate, all this arrived on Tuesday. I guess that the Mailman woke Robin up, because the package was waiting for me on the landing when I got home.
I descended on this package like a rabid hyena, let me tell you.
I didn’t have this book…and I had been drooling over it at our local Chapters last weekend (I put it aside in favour of one of the Yarn Harlot books that I hadn’t picked up yet). Now I’m glad I did! The yarn that my Pal has sent me (thank you!) is for making one of the projects in the book…the Candy Hearts on page 105. After looking through the book, Robin has told me that there is no way in hell that I am allowed to embroider “WoW” on them. I think he prefers the messages featured in the book (wink wink, nudge nudge).
He also really likes the Bob Dobbs sweater. Something tells me that I may be buying copious amounts of sweater wool sometime in the future. He’s already trying to get me off the sock kick…not that he’s complaining TOO hard. I just finished his Sideshow Husband Jaywalker socks
(This is true…I cast off the Sideshow Husband Jaywalkers. He proudly wore them to work last night. I’m going to have to tackle him this weekend so I can get pictures. In better light than my poor basement affords…) ![]()
