Movie Swap Package

I love me a good knitting swap and I have to say that participating in Lynne's "Special Swap" has always netted me a good result. I have had wonderful experiences, first with Beth, then with Kat and now with Elizabeth.

Behold the yarn-y, snack-y, movie-y goodness.

The red yarn is Duets sock yarn and I absolutely love the way the tones of red in that ball - all wound up and ready to knit, too. And more yarn in green and yellow. Those popcorn containers are the cutest ever and there is also tea and snacks and the cutest little grow-your-own Christmas tree.

Thanks, Elizabeth, for a terrific package!

A grow your own xmas tree?! What a great idea. The yarn looks lovely too. And that's great about the webcam, I love when technology allows us to be more in touch with people versus less.

That looks like lots of fun - especially those permanent popcorn boxes. Here's to lots of movies in your future.

Lynne sure runs some clever swaps. that red yarn is lovely (and already wound into a yarn cake I see...)
Yeah - I'm with Margene, what movie is going to be seen with all those goodies?

That's a great swap package. How clever! This is a good time of year for movies too since the studios save their best for now. Sounds like a really fun swap.

I love Duets sock yarn! What movie are you going to watch with all that swappy goodness?

I can't remember if I mentioned it - the yellow is part of the Duet and can be used for the heels and toes of the red sock yarn if you'd like. :)

Oh, nice loot!!!

BTW, am glad you got to see your family via the camera thing...I still don't have the "techy" knowledge to get all that done...

What a fun swap. You got some great stuff, but of course the sock yarn is my favorite. Looks like a beautiful colorway.
