I know everyone love receiving parcels, isnât that the whole reason for signing up for Secret Pal exchanges, and this time around I get twice the fun. On Thursday, I got on of those âwe tried to deliver a parcelâ? cards on the doorstep and I had to wait until Saturday to go and pick it up because of their silly opening times â donât you just hate it when that happens.
What I picked up was a parcel from Hawaii. Jason and I are planning our trip to Hawaii for our honeymoon so I am obsessed with the islands, which has been enhanced since discovering my One Skein Secret Pal lives there.
The yarn OSSP sent me was a hank of Araucania Patagonia Nature Cotton in purple shades, and as she pointed out three of my favourite things for yarn, the colour, cotton and hand-dyed. I canât wait to use it.
Even Jason commented that the parcel was very me, as it also included some Honey Roasted Macadamias, I am always snacking on peanuts, pistachios or cashews nuts â they are my dieting downfall. My favourites nuts are the honey roasted kind â which these where. I am waiting for a good t.v. night to open the packet.
Speaking of one skein secret pal, I have sent out my yarn for June and July and am half way through their knitted gift, I spent the majority of the weekend on it, as well as sorting out my UFOâs, expect a lot of completed projects soon.
