Fiber Godmother Final Package Can you say "squee"? So, I got my Fiber Godmother's "reveal package" today. I saw the address label and almost did a literal squeal. My Fiber Godmother is Rebecca, and she really pulled one over on me -- emailing me to ask me to ask my FG where she got the bee tape measure (in the first package). I am - apparently - easily fooled, but it was for a good cause! More pics follow, but left to right: postcard from Knitting Hell, orange Chibi, Unami - Japanese Craft Book (zakka) about tote bags, some adorable Halloween buttons, the most scrumptious yarn, and two bags of sugarfree candy. |

Knitting Hell postcard Yeah, that's pretty awful. What's worse - the ascot or the vest (except that it doesn't look like a vest, it looks like a tank top)? (or the hair) My Fiber Godmother (aka Rebecca) wrote that she was sure I would have immediately figured out that she was my Godmother, but I didn't have a clue! Not an inkling! |

I want to date this yarn I think I"m in love. Get a load of this! 600 meters of "Ottawa" yarn from Handmaiden. 92% wool, 8% viscose. It is SO soft, and the colors are amazing! Oh, what shall I make? |

Buttons with vintage Halloween images If these aren't just the cutest buttons I've ever seen... I love Halloween. And I love vintage Halloween. I think these buttons will be sewn onto a new totebag, so I can look at them year-round. |

This fills me with geeker joy I've been wanting a zakka book for months, and lookie! You cannot buy these here (my area, maybe all of Detroit Metro, maybe all of MI), and I've had a tough time with the Amazon.jp site, so I was pretty sure it would be a very long time until I had any of these books. This one is SO cool! It's all tote bags. And you know I loves me some tote bags! All the directions are in Japanese, but there are a ton of illustrations and pictures, so I should be able to figure out the basics. I can't wait!!! |
Thank you, Rebecca!

*Although I was amazed to see these "cool" stitch markers at Wal-mart (where we went under protest)... from Red Heart. That threw me.
