I had no idea that it had been so long since my last post. The virus meant that I was behind in loads of things and then of course I’ve been balancing the commitments of Knitcast with everything else. I have kept up with KnitCast though.
So, let’s see what was in the box….
The closeups!
Two different varieties of Peeps and a Peeps Pen!
a Peeps egg, which contained a Peep (extra photo of the inside coming soon, just have to get it transferred from my phone)
a copy of the second Knit1 mag
and Girl Scout Cookies!
I still have some of these as I’ve been hoarding them!I’d always heard of them in USA tv programmes and books so it was wonderful to actually have some!
Knitting – I started a Clapotis back in May and finished it today! No pix just yet but I made form this Silk Garden
It was stash yarn that I’d bought for another project a few years ago. The colour is the sadly discontinued no.8. Beautiful pinks and purples. I’m really looking forward to this. Congratulations to Clapotis‘ creator Kate Gilbert for making the cover of the fall issue of Interweave Knits with her first design for them! I’m going to Paris in just under two week’s time for my birthday and will be meeting Kate and interviewing her for KnitCast.
On Saturday Jeni and I went to Bristol for Get Knitted‘s first open-day. we had a great time! More on that in my next post.
