This was my first time ever doing Reddit Secret Santa and I was so excited! With my gift sent off, I waited...and waited...and waited. When the deadline passed, I realized that my original Santa never sent anything off and I was so bummed. A notification came that I was rematched, but I didn't want to get my hopes up just in case.

Yesterday the doorbell rang and I was handed a package. It was from my rematch Santa! I tore into the package (with pauses for photos) and pulled out a very lovely handwritten card, a skein of Cascade Yarns Heritage Silk in a pretty blue (my favorite!), a set of Hiya Hiya Sharp DPNs, and a book on how to knit toe-up socks. I had mentioned in my profile and ravelry that I've only knit flat items, but want to start making things in the round like socks. All of this was perfect!

Thank you, thank you, thank you rematch Santa! You have renewed my faith in the Reddit Gifts system. Everything you sent me was wonderfully well-thought-out and I'm so grateful. Please add me as a friend on ravelry and I'll post when I've finished these socks. :)
