Pics will go up as soon as I take them, because the awesomeness of my new yarn + goodies must be seen to be believed. :D

The wonderful sewmonkey got me a skein of madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light, which is a fingering-weight superwash Merino singles yarn. I'd wanted to try it for a while, but, (much to my chagrin), my budget tends more towards Knit Picks than MadTosh. The colorway is Tomato, which is this glorious tonal orange-red. (Which also happens to be one of my favorite colors ever.)

In addition to this skein (which is currently in my lap, being gazed at in adoration), she also got me a very-likely-delicious Dove Easter Bunny and a very-possibly-handmade project bag. This will make the second project bag I own that isn't an old grocery store bag, so I guess I'm moving up in the world. :P

Sewmonkey apologized that it took her so long to send out my yarn-- which is just silliness, given the awesomeness of what I received. She said that the reason for the delay was that she had tried to make me stitch markers. That apparently didn't go so well, but still-- her commitment to being a fantastic gifter can't be denied.

Thank you so much, sewmonkey! I can't wait to make something beautiful with this yarn. :D
