knitters are good people! :)
ReplyDeleteI have a few, knitting magazines in my stash but haven't bought any more because I have hardly made a fingerprint on any of my numerous knitting books, etc. I don't need the extra dust I'm afraid. Once in a while I'll buy a special edition of some theme from Interweave, like their Jane Austen knits or Harry Potter.
ReplyDeleteGoodness I might just buy that magazine for the picture, beautiful! My what a busy mailbox you have had, happy mail days are the best. So glad you like your goodies. I felt the squeeze, hope you feel one coming back to you. xo
ReplyDeleteSo much goodness in one week for you. Glad you had such happy surprises to make you smile. :-) I can't believe that picture was an ad. I adore it and yes, I would totally buy the magazine just for that. Have a beautiful, happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteLook at that butterfly! Beautiful photo and so nice to see now that all of ours are gone away. I'm so glad to see you've been on the receiving end of kindness and generosity lately - enjoy! Can't wait to see what you'll make with that pretty blue yarn. Enjoy a lovely weekend, Tracey! xo
ReplyDeletemy have you received some love and goodness in the mail! Lovely :) I know you will finish that shawl in time. I hope you have a peaceful weekend, Tracey!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great post Tracey- so happy for you. That looks like a lot of fun mail to receive- yay! Enjoy the knitting weather.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun mail week you had indeed! I love that hand carved owl. What pretty yarn that is! I love that picture in Vogue. I may have to go buy that now.
ReplyDeleteI do exactly the same thing or even have been known to buy cd's just for the artwork on the jacket...It often affects my book choice too. I can't resist a good cover.
ReplyDeleteYour dress is beautiful so unusual and the orang shawl will work perfectly complimenting your dark eyes. Happy shawl knitting in the cooler climb.

ReplyDeleteSo glad you got your shawl questions answered. I think the beautiful Terra Cotta color will look gorgeous on you!
