A Big "Wahoo!" to my Secret Pal

I had a lovely surprise waiting for me today, nestling amongst the cauliflower and broccoli sitting in my porch- a parcel from my Secret Pal.

It included two balls of Jo Sharp Silkroad Tweed in a beautiful and subtle grey (according to Trinny and Susannah, grey is MY colour!) and two balls of very soft merino in black. I am already thinking of mittens...

You can also see (hopefully) a leaflet of cocktails (already picked a few out to try), a ducky for my bath, some lovely marshmallow lip salve and a sweet, sweet card.

Thank you SP- you may be a newbie SP (like me), but you done good.

And for your further entertainment, we have ducky glowing...

and with Fernando welcoming him to his new home.

And lastly, a haiku to ducky:

The duck glows brightly,
Floating on a lonely sea.
Below, reflection.

p.s. Ooooh, I've decided- the black merino will become the Stitch 'N Bitch Kittyville Hat

Oooh- Holly, you are right- it's showing the duck's true soul, and it ain't purty....

hi skitten
i'm soo glad you liked the package- it was very hard to pick things being a newbie sp. I had no idea the duck glowed (it is from my neighbour's shop i am going to run next door and tell her- i don't think she knows either!!). Can't wait to see what you make from the wool- kittyville hat wow!

your sp.

ps: did you get the winney the pooh reference!
