I got some more great Merino from this ebay seller. She is the same one I got my mmmmmmmalbrigo from. I wanted to get some for Sissie's scarf but she wanted this colorway. I'm not sure the exact name but it's 100% Handspun, Handpainted Merino Wool from Uruguay. I love it, it's called shells.

New Toy & New WIP

Ahhh my new Ball Winder showed up today...well I image it showed up yesterday but I got it today....makes life much easier...I told Jeff that it was in his best interest that I got it...now he won't have to hold my yarn for an hour while I wind it. What did he say when I first tried it out..."Well I STILL have to hold it" I told him it was minutes rather than an hour and if that was a problem he could buy me a swift too :)

Now on to my BIG accomplishment! My very first sock! Well it's still a WIP and knowing me it will be for a while but I'm loving it! I'm using the Koigu yarn that Brendajos gave me during the Great Yarn Swap on KH. I LOVE it!!!

Well it's been way to long since I last posted. Let's just face it...I'm a slacker when it comes to stuff like this....

So let me just put up my latest yummies and maybe I will be a better blogger later!!!

The Irish Hiking Scarf WIP....I'm using Mmmmmmmmmmmalabrigo in Pollen....I LOVE this stuff. I think I'm going to make a light Pink one for my Sissie for her Birthday.

And here is my latest knitpicks stash :)

I love the mail man

It seems like lately I've been finding wonderful things in my mailbox. It started with my lovely SS Package. Then I get the missing Fancy Fur [TYLER}
(That was well...Tyler, he is so into typing/writing his name these days)
Anyways, back to my goodies.
I got Kemp's stretchy needles on Friday. (Sat there was nothing but a Guitar Center ad for Jeff....He needs more guitar stuff like I need more yarn....)

Yesterday!!!! I get my Brittany DPNS, I use them for straight knitting scarves. LOVE these!!!! My neighbor and I split them up. I also got my Fiber Trends Kids Clogs pattern. I put down my clog and started on one for DD. Check em out (I still have to do the bumper)

SURPRISE!!!!

Imagine my surprise when the Fed Ex man came into my WORK of all places and delivered what I had already written off as a bad ebay experience!!
This is my half, the other half went to my neighbor.
Now if I can get the Disco lot I'll be a happy camper.
That's a lot of scarves I have to make!!!

Trying this out...

Ok..so I really have NO clue what I'm doing here. Everyone has just great blogs, so I'm hoping the KH'ers will lend a helping hand to show me the ropes :)
