KMKS gift (mailed out to pal)

I mailed out my Knit Mitt Kit Swap gift yesterday. Here's a sneak peek at it:

Felted Sheep Tote (pattern by Fiber Trends)

Mitten Knitting Notecards

Hand cream

Hand dyed Lamb's Pride (by me!)

Pattern, needles

Extra skein of Cashmerino Aran in teal tucked inside since my pal had mentioned wanting to knit Fetching with the recommended yarn

Your pal is so lucky! The bag is lovely and to hand-dye the yarn is very clever.

Thank you! I had so much fun learning how to needlefelt- I hope she likes it!

Wow! Great work on the bag. I started the large version of that pattern and lost steam about 2/3 though... Maybe I should pick it back up? After all of the socks maybe!

I also wanted to let you know that I am a horrible awful secret pal because I haven't gotten by the post office yet. Everything is packed and ready to go, and since I can drive now (we've been iced over for 3 days), it won't be long. Hang in there! Hopefully it will be worth the ridiculous wait!

Hello, I'm your partner for the yarn swap on swap-bot. Just checking in to say hi. I have an idea of what to send you, I'll let you know when I mail out.
Cheers!

Thank you!! I just loved the little sheep... I think the needlefelting was a way to destress!

SP, I hope you are slowly thawing out there! I have family in San Antonio and they did not enjoy all the ice they received at all!

And thanks for introducing yourself, Swap partner! I'm looking forward to the exchange.
