Not only did I recieve my book exchange today ... I also got my ... YARN!

And let me tell you, I've struck golden yarn.

Amazing redditor rhapsodic has put together a potpurri of beautiful yarn, some of her favourites.

Although the yarn is amazing... and I will put it to good use believe me, what struck a chord in me and got me to smile til my cheeks ached - was the fact that rhapsodic wrote part of a letter to me in SWEDISH! :)

You certainly didn't torture me with your Swedish (and I understood it perfectly), I thought it was absolutely adorable and so did everyone I read it aloud to as well.

Ok so the loot:

I got an extra soft wool blend in buttermilk, baby alpaca in black, merino extra fine in beige and two gorgeous glitter yarns I've never seen before Rihanna and Stella.

Now, you might think I'm browsing what to make with these skeins.. no no .. rhapsodic already thought of that, she sent me patterns for baby socks and cool wrist warmers. Great pick for patterns, my son could really benefit from some socks!

I'll torture you with pics of the result as soon as I'm done, rhapsodic!

Thank you so so much. I've had so much fun with this and to see all these beautiful balls of yarn is something special. You see, in my little town, there's only one yarn shop and I've exhausted all their stuff. You've stalked me well.

Big hugs!
