One guy told my sister that she must have been licking the window on the short school bus a while back and she was all :?? . Of course i defended her (and the laughed my ass off) Ahhh thanks for the laugh 
Oh, I can’t wait to get mine! My pal said she was hoping by Saturday I would get it. Please, please, please 
I got me some gooooodies today and I can NOT believe it but i don’t think i have ever felt up this yarn before. it is so yummy soft (just as i was promised) that i spent half the evening at my part time job just petting it. I did have to go do some investigating to find out who my person was…I really had done a good job putting it out of my head…lol. i was SURE it was one of our Debbies. However my swap pal was DeeKnits! Thank you so much! You have spoiled me well. This stuff is almost an exact match to the back of my couch (no really not the rest of the couch …just the back…lol…the rest is other colors…i wasn’t kidding about my color infatuation!) I am not sure what it wants to be when it grows up but right now it is doing well just coming with me to momma’s house while i think about it! 
She got me four balls of the Debbie Bliss Alpaca Silk. sooo yummy to touch. and it is sort of a salmon/ coral color…sorry…cell phone was all i had with me for the picture!
[size=7][color=orange]THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH![/color][/size] 
:balloons:
MMMMmmmm! That stuff IS nice, Bren!
[size=1]How did you not know who your swap pal was?? [/size]
Yes, Bren I thought you’d be happy with how soft it was. I haven’t been able to post all the fun hints etc. It has just been crazy at work. Am leaving tomorrow for a business trip to Las Vegas. (Yes, it really is business.)
Bren has been so wonderful to organize this!!!
I got my yarn last night as well, will post pictures later today. I am enthralled with ribbon yarns and she has done well to give me a beautiful sampling. I think they want to be cell phone cozies from my 9th grade Sunday school girls. KristinW is my pal. She has done all this even while taking care of a new baby. Wow…
Deeknit
My pal emailed me with clues about her…
My guess is that it’s Javede! Am I right? Komodo dragons are native to Indonesia!!!
:cheering: You got me :cheering:
Not that hard, right?
Its even MORE awesome to get yarn from another country! Something you would NEVER have seen in a US yarn store! :cheering:
:cheering: :cheering: THIS IS SO MUCH FUN :cheering: :cheering:
I love everyone’s yarn goodies
You guys are gonna be SO JEALOUS!!! :mrgreen:
I have the ABSOLUTE BEST YARN SWAP PAL!!!
:happydance: :cheering: :happydance:
[size=6][color=red]Tammy6071, I love you! [/color] [/size]
I think Tammy was holding back on me in the last swap. She was saving all the love for the SECOND package!
My doorbell rang, and I FLEW down the hall (forgot about my sore knee…now it’s WORSE! :lol: ) I just KNEW it would be my package!
It was!! :happydance:
Tammy has SPOILED ME ROTTEN! I feel like it’s my birthday, or Christmas morning! :present:
She made the cutest card with my name on it, designed with little tea bags, a cup, tea kettle and a basket of yarn. 
(I’m gonna frame that and hang it in my craft room!)
And here’s what I got in the box:
[ul]A sweet little tote bag that EXACTLY matches the rolling bag my sister gave me. (Was Tammy spying on me?)
Two skeins of Knit Picks Simple Stripes sock yarn in happy colors!
Two packages of BAMBOO DPN NEEDLES (My first set!) 
Two HUGE skeins of Knit Picks Bare Peruvian Wool
Eight packs of Kool-Aid to dye it
A beautiful set of stitch markers (My first set!)
Debbie Macomber’s Book "The Shop on Blossom Street"
AND the “Knit Along” Book, with 11 baby afghan patterns![/ul]
She even knit two pretty dishcloths for me! (Music Notes and Tea!)
I’m a happy girl! I’m a happy girl!

I never in a MILLION YEARS expected to get such a nice gift from my swap pal. And she was good. I never had any idea that Tammy was my pal.
Hey Tammy! I was showing all the stuff to my hubby and his son, and found this little tiny thing in with the packaging. I thought “What in the world?” It was little tiny knitting needles and yarn. Must have fallen off the card. :lol:
I’ll glue it on there before I frame it. Such a cute card!
I still have NO IDEA how this package fits in with the clues of a sunset and a submarine. I must be a real airhead!
Lovely stuff! How generous! I figured out the “sunrise” - I think it’s the color of your yarn: 23552 Sunset
I still don’t know what the submarine is - maybe it’s where she lives?
Ah! The yarn color!
But the address doesn’t match. She’s in Groton, CT. 
Yeah, I say the sunset is the yarn and possibly the colors on the books…I’m not sure about the submarine
Nice haul, Sandy…I just love the card!!!
yes it absolutley does! The naval submarine base is in the Groton/New London area and the submarine force museum is in Groton! what a loverly part of the country!
nice haul!!!
Yea!! The mail man delivered my package today!! I was so happy I met him in the street because I just knew it had to be from my swap pal!! I wish I had taken pictures before I opened it all because she had it wrapped all nice and pretty, but I couldn’t wait!! Here’s what my wonderful pal sent me!!
Thank you Gardenmommy!! You are the best!! I absolutely love everything!!!
WOOOOOOHOOOOOO
I have the most awesome SP & her name is Angelia Sharp! WOOT!
I got a package from WEBS today with some yummy sock yarn and a new sock book! One I’ve never seen before!
I will post pics soon… gotta find my camera first. LOL
