I have stalkers AND yarn

August 18, 2007 8:03 am

WOOOOT! Wow. I never would have thought that I was stalked just like I stalk you. So good to know that it is mutual. What a way to warm a girls heart. Who says that diamonds are a girls best friend … I say stalkers are. Well that and yarn. Okay. Maybe yarn comes before stalkers. But you are all still important to me. And hey … keep posting … I love reading and “seeing” into your worlds.

Now. Yarn.

Today a beautiful package arrived at my house.

Wollmeise Package
First off, before I show you what was inside, I have to say that presentation means a lot. I am really impressed with how it was laid out along with that beautiful bit of yarn on the top of the package. Now. I know. You could care less about the package and how pretty I think the presentation was. You want to know whats inside.

I first heard about this yarn over at Wendy Knits during one of my stalking sessions. Well, I had to check them out. The Loopy Ewe will be carrying the yarn (and they have a great incentive program where for every $250 you buy you get a $25 gift certificate automatically in your account!). However, when I was making an order from them, they didn’t have it in yet, so I went right to the source. I have to say that the service was fantastic. I got an email back asking how vibrant I wanted the colors … these are all “medium” vibrancy. HOLY SCHEMOLY. I am going to make another order at some point just to see what the vibrant vibrant colors are! All in all I got the yarn in about two weeks.

Dogs…a few pictures for you.

Bosco (the BF’s dog) is a 2 year old lab. Whitley and him play pretty hard with each other. Angel sort of just watches. She tries to get in there sometimes and does succeed. But Bosco is a bit scared of her.

As for other stuff. There is some neat things that have been in the works for about 8 months or so that will be coming to fruition soon. I am looking forward to being able to share it with you all! *g*

LOVE that yarn. What beautiful colours.
Too bad I don’t do socks (or shawls).
BTW It was nice to see you yesterday (even though it was a short visit).

whoa. if those are “medium,” I think you’d need sunglasses to view the “full” vibrancy. it’s possible they could actually be radioactive. better knit double with some lead yarn ;)

I’m drooling with jealousy over that sock yarn. Damn yarn fast. I especially love the purple one.

Heh heh heh I think I will stalk you, too. Enabler! God I love that yarn! I may have to check into that….hmmm…..

So, you lost a sibling as well? Sucks. I can’t believe how just when you think you are done with the hardest grieving it hits again. I suppose after a while it happens less frequently. I am lucky to have some great support friends. I don’t know how people that don’t have support make it. I really don’t. I hope you are doing well with your loss. My email is oboechikAThotmail.com Feel free to email me directly, ok?

So what happens with the lovely yarns now? Hmmm? Socks? Shawls? Hats?Yeeeee medium. I can’t wait to see your next order! ;0)
