Magic Yarn Ball Swap
I got a parcel today - my Magic Yarn Ball all the way from Nashville TN….I took it out into the garden to open
Underneath the pink tissue was this
It’s Crystal Palace Panda - a yarn I’ve been dying to try for ages and the colour “Violets” is just lovely. So I started to unwind and all these goodies fell out
The little monkey key-ring is probably my favourite “Official Chocolate Taster” - that’s me!

and my swap partner, Tamelyn, is obviously a mind reader as she sent a Chibi needle set. I “misplaced” mine about 10 days ago, it’s most likely lurking in a project bag somewhere but blowed if I can find it…so now I have a replacement. I think I need to tie this to my notions case or something….
I also really like the nail file which comes from Tamelyns LYS “Haus of Yarn” in Nashville and has a great knitting design on it
The other things I got were a teabag with hibiscus (haven’t had hibiscus tea since I went to Egypt so this will be a lovely reminder), a pot of J R Watkins Apothecary Red Clover Hand & Cuticle Salve (this smells gorgeous and feels wonderful, it’s a perfect size to fit in my knitting notions case as well), Clover Needle Holders shaped like little jumpers (very useful - off to fit them around my dpns right now), a sachet of Soak in flora and a lovely pearly button.
Big Thanks and Hugs to Tamelyn!! Now I have to look for something to knit with the Panda - Tamelyn tells me there’s a ball and a half so ca 250yds….hmmmmm what can I do with that???

Hi!
I sent you an email yesterday, my internet has been down for more than a week, and i just wanted to say thankyou for a wonderful package. I really loved it all, and so did the kids. I feel so spoiled and I have really loved everything in every package. Thankyou so much.

What a nice package of stuff. I love that yarn. I hope the flooding isn’t bad where you are located.
