TGIF

TGIF!! :D Thank God It’s Friday!! Firstly, I’m glad that I finally finished the pair of Jaywalker socks that I started back in April?? Hehehe. After I did the 1st sock, I sort of got unmotivated and left it to be an UFO. Indeed, it was my first UFO. Anyway, I finally have a pair. Alas, the sock yarn and the pattern is not a good combination. The yarn is really nice but it’s not very stretchy and the pattern doesn’t help as well. In the end, this pair of Jaywalker doesn’t fit me. So I’ve decided to give it away to a friend of mine. At least I know it’ll have a good home :razz: .

Secondly, a package was waiting for me in my letter box when I reach home from work today. Yippee!! It’s the second package from my SP 11!!! And this time around, the theme colour is blue!! There are so many yummy yarns in there!! :shock: Thank you so much SP!!! I really like all the stuff you got me!! Of course, Eeyore is super cute!! I have got to show you the card!!

SP11 - 2nd Package

Cute Eeyore

Anyway, back to the yarns, all the labels are in Finnish, therefore, I don’t really understand what’s written there. So I’m just going to assume. There’s two balls of mohair type of yarns, 1 huge ball of sock yarn and there’s another ball of ‘I don’t know what it is” type of yarn :razz: . Hopefully, my SP will let me know soon :wink: .

Blue is the Theme

SP, thank you thank you thank you thank you!!! I like everything that you sent!! Can’t wait to find out what’s in the 3rd package!!! :grin:

    The Jaywalkers look great but such a pity that they don’t fit you. Well now that you have knitted a pair, you can knit another. Enjoy your goodies.

    Great socks and great french market bag too. Your site wasn’t working for a few days so I couldn’t comment earlier!

    Hey Michelle, did you find the jaywalkers too small? I have read a lot of similar issues about the jaywalker sizing, and was just wondering if you found the same?

    THe jaywalkers are great - such a nice yarn colourway. Although it is sad that these ones don’t fit, you will have had lots of experience for the next pair you can knit for yourself. :)
    Your secret pal has sent some lovely yarn, the variegated one is beautiful.

    Your jaywalkers looks lovely. Sorry to hear that you are unable to wear them. Nevermind you can knit another pair much quicker the second time around. Enjoy all that yarn goodness and treats.
