I have been away for a few days – and since getting back have been suffering with a cold – so tonight is the first time I have been able to get near the laptop.
When I got home, I found a huge grey bag awaiting me – the kind you get with yarn in – only I knew I hadn’t ordered any yarn. I hadn’t checked my mail in while so didn’t realise my Secret Pal had sent out a parcel.
Once I ripped open the bag, I found the handmade box, adorning each of the sides and top are images from Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Tiffany & Co. Including a diamond ring with the Tiffany’s setting (I am not obsessed with Tiffany’s honest). You can see them better in the close-ups of the box.
Within the gifts was a little card – with my Secret Pal’s identity – Thank you Helen at Helishlyknitting.
Amongst the goodies, where some Kidsilk Night – she caught on to my obsession with KSH – I am not sure what to make with it – but am thinking a top.
Also some SW Trading Company’s Bamboo. I have never used with yarn – or any SW yarns for that matter and can’t wait to try it.
There was also some scrap-booking/card-making supplies – I really should get on and make some cards, just to try out all these new toys.
Finally, there was a mini hand-made box to match the bigger one – which currently is holding my stitch-markers.
Thank you once again Helen, I look forward to reading your blog and finding out more about you.
