My CS3 Package

So I participated in a Color Swap Package through Ravelry. My color was pink!!
I still LOVE the color pink, it will always be my favorite. :) No matter how many times I try to change things up I’m always drawn to pink.

My entire box and the card smelled of chocolates and mint! :) I received everything in a pink (silk?) Della Q drawstring bag.
I recieved:
“lace & eyelets 250 stitches to knit” by Interweave Press
2 skeins of Cascade Yarns Indulgence - 70% alpaca, 30% angora
A bag of Milk Chocolate M&Ms in pink!
Brocade Frog: Skinny Frog Fruit Dip Mix
Almond Roca Buttercrunch Toffee (mmmmmmm!!!!!!!!)
Seattle Chocolates
Salmon Mint Tin says “Don’t get vaught with fish breath!” lol
Earthly body Hemp Lip Balm with a heavenly scent (I’m totally addicted to chapstick. seriously, Mike says I have a problem :D lol)
And I got a beautiful handmade cowl!!

I love love love my awesome package with pink everything! Oh and by the way, I just came home from the gym and I just inhaled about half those calories that I burned off! :) haha! I had to really hold back on the almond roca so that it could make the picture. :)

Toe-Up Sock




One of the ladies in our local knitting group taught me how to make a toe-up sock!! It's actually my first sock ever, so I'm totally excited about that :) YAY!

The Who Hat




This was the project I made for my swap partner. I could have sworn I sewed those buttons on straight!! lol It drives me nuts to see them crooked!

Those are supposed to be owls, in case you couldn't tell.
