Wow. The mailman has made me very happy lately. All sorts of fun stuff popping up in my mailbox.
Melana sent me my very first skein of
sundara yarn. I have never knit with this before, and am very excited to cast on for a pair of socks using one of the patterns she also included. And, she must have known how dry my hands get, because there was also a little tin of the most magical lotion made just for knitters! Thank you so much Melana, you are just too sweet.
I did a little swap with
Megan. Look what I got! Soap, bath products and lip
balms, she included one for Libby. Check out the whole line
here. Thank you, Megan. I love it!
A while ago, I won a little contest over at
freckled nest. Leigh Ann is always having contests and giveaways. A
super cute bag (for my knitting) along with stickers and magnets that look like candy! Thank you so much
Leigh Ann!
And, when
Kim mailed the
malabrigo a while back, she also included pom-pom makers. Have you all ever used
these? She sent
four different sizes. We were like a pom-pom making factory over here. They are so much fun to make.
The
thankful tree got a quick spray of white paint, and it is now a pom-pom tree. Thank you, Kim! You provided us with hours of entertainment.

i have one of those pom pom makers - were the kids able to do it? i might steal that idea. looks like a great rainy day craft.
Can you tell me about the lotion, Leslie? I think that would be a great gift for my knitting friends. My Ballerina made her debut last weekend in Boston. I adore her. Thanks again for your help. Your pom pom tree is so precious. I can't wait to see your socks. That yarn is fabulous.

That Sundara yarn looks very enticing!
And, what a cute idea - a pom-pom tree! That would be a nice way to use up some leftover yarn, too. Thanks for posting that. I have a pom-pom maker but have never used it.....
Your pom pom tree is so colorful! Love it!
Such a good mail day! That tree is the best, what is more fun than poms?
It is really nice. Good idea!
ball trees. :)))
