March PHATfiber & Swap Thank You

My March PHATfiber colorway is a BitsyKnits favorite, South Sea Isles. Available in 15 different yarns and fibers, the subtle blendings of blues and greens are great with most colorings. For something different, try a smooth yarn like Squash! or Squoosh! Merino trimmed with one of the loopy, lumpy boucles as an accent. One skein of Squash or Bitsy's Sock is perfect for a Baby Surprise Jacket for those new spring arrivals. Keep your eyes open for the jumbo skein of handspun that I've sent off to PHATfiber headquarters, I expect it will end up as some sort of giveaway or contest. Also keep your eyes open for special "Get it FREE" cards that will be included with some lucky PHATfiber boxes. Recipients are entitled to receive a free skein of yarn or bag of fiber with minimum purchase.

As for me, I've recently had a lovely stash enhancement. My wonderful Amazing Lace Swap partner, GuapaM sent me this incredible package from Germany and I'm finally getting a chance to photo it. She included an amazing assortment (the chocolate is missing, its already been 'used'). Yarns (all lace weight) include a HUGE skein from Estonia in teals, a so soft magenta skein from Finland and the wonderfully colorful zauberwool crazy ball in lace weight. Also in the box was the hand sewn project bag in the middle with patchwork, a zipper pocket and my name embroidered on cute little sheep. GuapaM and I have had a wonderful time getting to know each other over the past weeks and found that we have quite a bit in common in addition to our love of knitting.

Thanks so much Simone, I love it all
