Not the best photo, but here's a look at what I got in the mail today from my secret pal. A book I've wanted for awhile, Lavish Lace, a sachet filled with some great smelling stuff, and 400 yards of some beautiful wool yarn......enough to make a beautiful scarf. Thank you Fairy Knit Mother!!! And I promise to get a better shot of the yarn so you can see the colors....it's a colorway of blues and purples.
On the home front, Gary leaves tomorrow for a week long trip to Texas for work. I have plenty to do to occupy myself, but I will really miss him. Won't seem like home without him here!!

Woo hoo! I'm glad the package arrived before Gary left. Now you can have something to do while he is away. The bag has lavender from this last summer's garden (hopefully it wasn't too strong smelling). I have started collecting for your next surprise package... it involves lots of pink. I am so loving this Secret Pal shopping. Cheers! FKM
Helly Karyn,
I hope you are not getting too lonely with Gary being gone. Cybery, fibery hugs to you! Your FKM
Wow! What anice package! Speak of which, I put yours in the mail yesterday, so be on the lookout for it. I hope you like the Yorkshire Tweed. My sister sent it to me as a present when she lived in London for a semester. I just couldn't bring myself to knit it, and eventually I got more Rowan than I could ever afford to knit.
Best!
