*yawn* Yes, another switch upgrade last night – but the upside is that I won’t have to work very much today!
Kristi’s having a contest – the first person to knit a pair of socks from her new Siren Socks pattern will win a skein of Fleece Artist Sea Wool.
MrsPao has finally reached Minnesota in her vacation recap! She has a great shot of Mayhem, as well as more shots of Chaos’s Baleful Stare of Death.
So, after reading Jenn’s post and discovering that new Lana Grossa (aka Meilenweit) colors were out… I was helpless.
“My foot is much nicer than this sock yarn.” -Chaos
I’ve had some contest luck lately. I won a $10 gift certificate to Aija’s etsy shop, zer0 Markers – thanks, Aija! I also won some Lorna’s Laces from Kat (top left, below). Thanks, Kat! On the top right is a lovely skein of Great Adirondack sock yarn, which was a gift from MrsPao – thank you!
“Just passing through, nothing to see here.” -Mayhem
I participated in the swap-bot handdyed sock yarn swap and got a gorgeous skein of yarn from monochromaticgirl – thanks!
“Hey, big kitty, didn’t we tell Mom no more yarn? Well, there seems to be quite a lot of it today…” -Mayhem
I also participated in the swap-bot indie coffee swap. My swap pal Mrrranda went above and beyond my expectations! She sent a two-disc indie music mix, coffee from RoosRoast Free Speech Coffee, chocolate after-coffee mints, some bumper stickers, and two extremely cool t-shirts! I particularly adore that mix-tape t-shirt. Thanks, Mrrranda!
“May, I thought you said there was yarn out here? I don’t see any yarn.” -Chaos
Elspeth sent me some great mix cds, wool wash, body cream, black cat stationery, some candy, and a puzzle card – thank you, E!
“Hmm, maybe she’s up to something, because there isn’t any yarn here, either.” -Mayhem
“May, are you sure you didn’t just imagine the yarn?” -Chaos
I also ordered a new Posy Sock Bag from Nana Sadie Rose.
“Hello, small flat kitty. Have you seen any yarn out here?” -Mayhem
“Hmph, well, be that way then.” -Mayhem
Catch you all in a few days or so! Thanks for all your wonderful comments – they’ve meant a lot to me. Think healthy lucky thoughts toward the Twin Cities Wednesday at 7:30 am CDT!! 🙂
Good luck and I’ll be thinking of you!
Can’t believe how behind I was, and just found out about your surgery today. I’m sure it will go well and you’ll be back home with Chaos, May and yarn in no time. Speedy recovery!
(Glad Mayhem’s vet visit went okay, your recent dyed yarns are all gorgeous, a belated Happy Birthday to Chaos, and that posy bag is so cool!)
I’ve been out of town, but still thinking about you. Good thoughts, good thoughts, good thoughts… and a very speedy recovery!
Sending healing thoughts your way. I know your little ones will be waiting for you, and ready to wait on you hand and paw.
that green t-shirt is kick ass.
Hope you’re feeling better. Those gorgeous presents and prizes are sure to lift your spirits. You have such cute toes! Enjoy your kitty lovin’ while your recuperate.
Good Fiber Vibes – Hour 3 –
Hoping they’re leaving all the good stuff behind 😉
**Pats the kitties**
Chris, just wanted to let you know I’m thinking about you today, sending virtual hugs and well wishes.
Ooops, it’s Wednesday at 2:00. I’m sending good, healing thoughts your way and hoping all went well.
Good wishes on your surgery today! Really neat sock bag with the chinese characters on it. The kitties are having a wonderful time with all the mail!
I just wanted you to know that I’m thinking of you, and sending tons of healing thoughts your way!
