Hy has been worried about this one, because it took a while to get here. I’ve encouraged swappers shipping from the States to send their mail by slow boat and avoid the huge mail costs, and I’ve yet (knock on wood) to see a package go astray. But this one did take a little longer than most. Nevertheless, guess what just showed up in my mailbox as of 20 minutes ago (and which I absolutely have to post about now)?
A lace pattern I’ve been looking at for a long time but never convinced myself I really needed (Oh, but Hy knew better, clever gal!), a couple of cards—one of which is a pattern card!—some sweets I’ve had to hold back from DH long enough to get the photo while the things were in a nice, neat package, and three (count them, 3!) skeins of Koigu in an awesomely wild strawberryish colorway.
You need to understand that Koigu is one of those yarns which has been on my list to try; it’s one of those I can’t get locally and which has to be ordered from outside the country. Since I’m hesitant to order yarns I’ve not felt (most of the time), this is just purrrfect. (grin)
This absolutely made my day.
