I was hoping to get something I've never used before and I got my wish. Lion Brand Homespun in a beautiful brownish color (Barley Orge Cebada).The picture does not do it justice. I know what this is going to be used for (ME)! This will make me a new scarf and hopefully enough left over to make a hat. I cant wait to start; hopefully this weekend. Also got a sparkly skein I would have never thought to get but also got a hand written suggestion on how to use it. My wife saw the cowl on the picture and promptly told me the pattern is on the other side of the label. I think that was a hint!

Also got a catalog from Herrschners. I can tell you there is yarn purchases in my near future. I've been to the website but never really could get a feel for who they were. The catalog makes all the difference.

I got Christmas in April. What an Santa!
