I love the Secret Pal swap! You get to send packages to one person for three months and (maybe even better) you receive packages from your secret pal. In the last package the pal reveals herself to you. I was lucky enough to have Kim as my secret pal.
I received her third package a couple weeks ago and am finally getting around to posting photos.
What do you think? Great, isn't it?
The blue yarn is from Blue Heron Yarns. It's 1050 yards of cotton in the colorway blue violet. It'll be used to make the Shoalwater Shawl by Fiber Trends. Kim included Addi lace needles too. It's a whole project!
But that's not all. The big giant hank of yarn at the top is 13.2 oz. of New Zealand wool. To the right is merino wool from Firestone Farm in Michigan. The big flowers are actually pens. The sheep on the left is soap. I'm afraid if I get him wet he'll lose his curls so he may live out his life on the knitting book bookshelf. The sheep to the right is an ornament made of beeswax.

Kim, thanks so much for this package and the previous ones. You did good!

What a great package! I have sheep soap - two different ones - that I'm afraid to use too. I keep saying I'll set it out in the guest room when I have knitter friends visiting, but I never remember.
