The girl and the husband are home from Colorado now. Since they were staying in Fort Collins for a couple of days of vacation (lucky dogs), I made sure to point out that there was a really good yarn store there and remind them that Mother’s Day was coming up. I am pleased to report that the hint was successful and they came home with new yarn! It’s not completely clear why he didn’t save it for Mother’s Day on Sunday, but gift yarn is good any day! (My actual gift is going to see Itzhak Perlman this weekend, so really these are bonus gifts anyway.)
The purple is my favorite to feel, very soft and bouncy. The middle teal skein has a mini-skein for heels and toes, hooray! And the pink? So pretty and bright! Plus they even got me a new pin for my collection. They did very well!
But does this mean I can’t go to the yarn store on Mother’s Day now??
It looks like they know your colors. Happy Mother’s Day.
They do! Thank you–Happy Mother’s Day to you too!
This means you have to go! To find matches and new ideas, to match your new yarn.
I like how you think!!
Great yarn. Happy Mother’s Day
Some day I will visit Colorado and make a pilgrimage to The Loopy Ewe. 😉 I’m glad you like your bonus gift!
I hope you do! It’s quite marvelous!
Someday!
You still get to go to the yarn store on Mother’s Day. You have my permission to buy whatever you want and not feel guilty about it.
Oh whew, thank you! I’ll make sure my husband knows! 😉
If you need me to write him a note let me know.
Beautiful yarn!
I always wished I were crafty. Never learned to knit or crochet. Instead, I spin yarns with words.
Equally creative!
