Birthday Pressies, Yarn Aquisitions & WIP
It was my birthday yesterday and I received some very pretty sock yarn and I thought I would share some photos with you. I also got a lovely birthday cake from one of my friends which was very yummy. No, I haven't eaten it all .... yet. I'll be having another slice when I get home from work today. I also got some lovely none knitting pressies of perfume, bubble bath, Disney socks, slippers, hand cream, bath confetti and money. One of my friends also bought me a Geocaching.com waterbottle and accessories which will come in handy for my next trip out treasure hunting.
From left to right they are: Sunshine Yarns Twist - Tundra.Sunshine Yarns Twist - Swedish Short Snout Dragon
Dream of Color Smooshy - Some Summer Sky.
I also recently treated myself to some yarn and forgot to post the photos on my blog!! I got this lovely package from Socktopus which was beautifuly wrapped.
I chose 2 skeins of Dream in Color Smooshy in Beach Fog and Petal Shower. I haven't used Smooshy before but it feels very soft and smooshy!!!
Here is a piccie of my current sock that I'm working on. It's the Go With The Flow sock pattern by Evelyn Clark. I've haven't knitted anything for the last 4 days so I really need to finish this sock so that I can start a new pattern with some of my new yarn.
I also treated myself to 2 more skeins of Dani's Sunshine Yarns sock yarn. The colour above is called Hedwig and the one below is Dobby. Have you noticed the Harry Potter theme going on here!!! My new birthday yarn is also from the Harry Potter range and Dani has a whole range of Dragon coloured yarns.
