This week was full of surprises! I received a parcel that made me walk on the moon and a day later the news that magknits has shut down and with it my 4 published patterns had - so it seemed at first - vanished.
My wonderful parcel from Nathalie arrived on Tuesday and I was so delighted. Look at all these marvels. A very soft and very long scarf in my favourite color knit from Debbie Bliss and Colinette Cadenza (this is my first Colinette and only second Debbie Bliss yarn item!).
A delicious bar of dark chocolate. Nicky Epstein's Knitted Flowers - a book I have been lusting after for such a looooooooooooooooooooooong time. And yet, it didn't end, there was also a skein of Socks that Rock sockyarn in the most beautiful green. It is very tempting to abandon all WiPs and just cast on with this yummy yarn.
And last, but not least, a book on my all-time favourite author Jane Austen written by the fantastic Nathalie herself! How cool is that? I can hardly believe my luck, not only have I been spoilt rotten, but my pal is an Austen scholar! I feel so honored and so happy. Thank you very much Nathalie, this parcel made my week.
Oh, and have you noticed that delightful greeting card that accompanied my presents? I feel so special this week.
