I also bought some Wildfoote luxury Sock Yarn in "Rock 'N Roll" . . . incredibly appropriate since I am in the Rock 'N Roll city!! This is for my Secret Pal 8. The colors are blues, greens, oranges, reds, yellow and gold. It too will be ready to go.
I also purchased some wool to make the bowls (I think) that are in the One Skein book. I have to think about the size, etc. but I am really impressed with the way they look and others that I have seen made up. The wools I purchased are in green, taupe and beige, so there is lots of flexibility in working them up.
This is soooooo much fun and I hope my recipients enjoy their gifts as much as I enjoyed getting them.
And, by the way, this is a picture of my kiddos (they are 20, 12 and 5):

Your kids are so cute!!! My godson is almost 5, and that age is so much fun- isn't it?
I love being nosy, so loving the pics!
I have been doing some shopping for you as well, I will let you know when I send you a package so you can keep an eye out.
Have a terrific weekend!
Your SP
Thanks so much . . . for the most part they are good kids. Five is a wonderful age. Everything is new and fascinating.
Oh I LOVE that shop!! I Stay there for hours at a time! My MIL lives that way and I got her in there one day while I was I was visiting now she takes a bunch of classes over there..Everyone who works there in so nice. I usually sit right by the sock drawers, park my butt right there for the evening.....lol
Were planning on moving out that way someday. Was going to when school got out this year but things changed again. DH thinking of Vermilion Sheifield Lake. Will be in Elyria (less then 5 minutes to the shop, have you been inthe fiber shop across the lot there?) until we find something
I thought I had the odd spaced age gap children 18, 6, & 4.8....I'm not alone. beautiful picture!
Soapy,
The Fiber store is why I went out there in the first place. I was looking for Addi 40" and it was one of the places that sold it. I sent my sister to the fiber store because she wanted to get into spinning. My sister is the one that sent me to Birds. I am so glad! I love having the kids spread out . . . and in the picture they are even acting like they like each other! LOL! Usually, they are pretty good with each other and other times . . . phew.
They're beautiful. Thanks for your words of encouragement. It means a lot to me, and DH, whether he knows it or not!
