...and I love it!

What was in the box?

A skein of marled blue/navy super bulky that I think would be nice as a hat. Four skeins of sport/fingering weight in bright, gorgeous springtime colors. Destined to be colorwork? Maybe fingerless gloves? (: A skein of bulky chenille yarn in a sunny lemon yellow. I can't stop squeezing this stuff. I included a close-up shot of this stuff because it is really neat.

I also got a circular needle (always needed!) & a lovely letter.

Thank you thrysaa! I'm so glad I said 'surprise me!' You picked very well (:

P.s. Volunteering to ship internationally was a great decision. For some reason the post office made me come to the office to pick up my box, but getting a package from overseas was a thrill. Bonus: One of my co-workers is from the Netherlands and she was really excited when I told her where my new yarn was from. My gift is GOING to the Netherlands & I can't wait until it gets there!
