My husband signed up for the yarn exchange on by behalf and requested yarn that was fit for a man so that I could make something for him.

His Secret Santa delivered!

I received 2 skeins of 75% pure New Zealand Merino & 25% Possum. Yes, possum! Those cute little critters that look sort of like big giant mice with BIG marble eyes and a tweaky little nose. (Not to be confused with an opossum which is a different beast all together!) It's kind of a marled black colour...mostly black with a little gray mixed in.

I also received 2 skeins of handspun yarn that she graciously spun specifically for this event! Ya'ay! Such talent too!

According to the lovely note included it contains 75% Corriedale, 15% Angora Mohair, and 10% alpaca. All gathered from local farms. I think I like this one the best because it contains all natural and local ingredients.

Secret Santa also included two new friends from Down Unduh - a Penguin and a Koala bear.

Thank you Santa! I shall try my best to do your hard work justice. I'm very excited to pick out a pattern for the handspun.
