In the past week or two, I've been receiving small packages of yarn that I would like to share. Before I left for my mini vacation, I received a shipment from Jimmy Beans Wool. This is now my source for Lorna's Laces. I was excited to receive the December's colorway (they have exclusive colors that are released in limited quantities each month) in Bough's of Holly and just a couple of days ago, I received the January's New Year's Lights. I also ordered some in Worsted weight to make more Chevron Scarves! If you decide to shop there, please enter my email address, christine.pettersonATcomcast.net (replacing AT with @, of course!) when you open an account under the "Heard About Us from". I did not put myself as referred from anyone, but if you shop there as well, I can change my profile so you will receive a 15% off your entire order. First person to email me will get this offer!

Next is the Knit Purl January Sock Shipment. I love it but not sure when I'll get to making these socks:
And finally, a freebie from Woolgirl. When you place 7 orders, you become a Wooly Woolgirl Club member and you receive these goodies. A tote bag and a skein of yarn with a pattern for a pair of anklets and other neat stuff for your knitting bag!
This may have arrived on my birthday but I was out of town. Well, I considered my birthday gift - the best birthday gift so far!
Oh, before I forget, I finished ONE sock in 5 days. This is Maelstrom by Cookie A. I started this on while packing for the weekend trip to Brainerd. These were mostly knitted in the car with the exception of a couple of hours in the hotel and another at home to finish the toe.
