More Swappity Goodness...

It seems that my blog has become little more than a record of recently arrived swaps (5 out of my last 10 posts have been swap packages that I have received). And well, now I am doing it again.

I love the Malabrigo Swap Group on Ravelry so much that when a similar group, but for Blue Sky Alpacas yarn was started, I decided to join it as well, even though I had only ever petter some of their yarns before. And now I am going to be doing a lot more petting, at least of their positively yummy cottons, because my package arrived today at my new place (well, technically, yesterday, but I wasn't here when they attempted delivery, so I picked it up this morning).



And I just have to say that I got spoiled. Boopersin (sorry, Ravelry link only there, but her name is Jenny and she rocks!) says in her note (which is written on a most wondrously gorgeous handmade looking paper) that this was her first swap. You'd never know that based on how well she stalked my posts on Ravelry, because she sent so many amazing goodies that I absolutely love.

Let's see...

• three skeins of Blue Sky Dyed Cotton in Fern (I LOVE this color!)
• one skein of Blue Sky Organic Cotton in Nut (such a lovely shade, and color grown!)
• one skein of Malabrigo merino worsted in Sweet Grape (Yay Malabrigo! I love this shade too!)
• patterns for Bobbi Bear, One Fish, Two Fish and Surfs Up! Volume 1
• The Claws Come Out button pack and an I <3 Captain Tightpants button
• a Pink Knit Stick Sack by Ashland Sky (now, I am not a pink fan normally, but this is for a good cause - breast cancer research and education - so for this reason, Pink is perfect!)
• a Clover Chibi tapestry needle set (I've been wanting one of these for ages, and was very close to buying myself one a few weeks ago... glad I waited!)
• a Bryson spring tape measure (identical to the one I currently have but don't know the location of thanks to the move, so glad to have a spare!)
• a sample size Soak in the citrus scent (and since I cannot find my other wool washes right now this is getting put in a special place for when I need it)
• Honey Almond Oatmeal soap from Hidden Blessings on etsy (yay, I need more soap!)
• tea! Four Tazo Passion tea bags (one of their favorites of mine) and four different Revolution Tea boxes as well (Earl Grey Lavender - which I've tried in the past and loved, English Breakfast, Tropical Green and Golden Flowers Herbal... they all sound yummy!)

Jenny, thank you so very much for this wonderful swap package! You are the best!
