One Skein August FO

So I finished my August One Skein gift ages ago, and finally got a chance to photograph him/her (I am leaning towards him, but you never know with knitted animals) the other day.





I will be mailing it tomorrow (finally), I hope she likes it!

I've yet to take photos of what I received for my August FO, but it is wonderful. It's a little burgundy diagonal striped (via knits and purls) drawstring bag. And Lynn, who happened to be my One Skein pal, sent along wonderful goodies too. All told from her, I received one skein of black Cascade Pastaza and some beautiful beaded stitch markers in June, a lovely olive green (Elm by their color names, but egad is the color off on my monitor) Jo Sharp Silkroad Ultra and some size 13 14" needles in a gorgeous oriental print case for July, and for August, the lovely bag, as well as a skein of Rowan's Cotton Glace in Dijon (which is also more of an olive green) and some row counters (Heh... my one went missing, so these were a pleasant bonus... and now the missing one has resurfaced. Of course.) and a nifty set of circular magnets. She spoiled me mercilessly.

I have a bunch of other previously finished FOs, but I'll save them for another post.
