I bought some lovely supersock merino from Cherry tree hill which feels so silky soft and will be a delight to knit with. The colourway is 'Monet'
I also got a lovely skein of yarn from Malabrigo which again is beautifully soft, just a shame my camera doesn't give the colour any justice, it is just divine!
I also took part in a group swap via the Fuzzy Mitten group in Ravely and received this great swap from Bluesocks.
As well as the darling puppy she knitted for me she included some RYC cashsoft in pink to make the puppy a jumper and also some Colinette cadenza to knit my little pup something else. She kindly included a little pressie for leah - in the way of a Winnie the Pooh book and also a piece of kendall Mint cake (famous in the Lake District where she comes from). What a great swap!
Isn't this pup so adorable? She even knitted her a blanket to keep her warm on her journey South to me :o)

Very cute pup, and I love the look of the yarn you bought. I am trying to be very good about not buying stuff until I've used stuff! x
I love that little puppy - what a lovely package to be sent :O)
awww, the puppy is a cutie. I want to knit more of those fuzzy mittens guys sometime, but probably not soon!
AAAwww the puppy is adorable. What a great swap! I am totally itching to buy some sock yarn (I want a plain colored Opal 4ply - have you knitted with it before?) Hope you had a great weekend!
What lovely swap goodies you received, that is the cutest little puppy. I love the colors of your new sock yarn, I bet you can hardly wait to get knitting with it.

Thank you for sharing the puppy I knitted for you for the swap. I'm glad she has a lovely new home. Love the new sock yarn :)
