When I returned from my weekly visit to Mum’s a couple of days ago I brought back a swag bag full of goodies.
From Mum I got
- a travel steam iron (which comes in handy for small projects)
- a beauty glove (which I’m planning to use as a dry felting base – hope it works)
- assorted gift ribbons
- a bag with different cotton yarns (Why do I always seem to attract pink?)
From an unknown donor, a small bowl of useful things left in the staircase for whomever might want them, including
- a plastic bag of buttons (already sorted and cleaned)
- a latch hook
- a crochet hook (5 mm)
- three circular needles, 5 and 6 mm (80 cm/32″) and 3 mm (40 cm/16″)
- a set of dpns (5 mm) plus two leftover dpns (3.5 mm)
- some beige sockyarn and some gray acrylic yarn
Especially the needles are a welcome addition to my collection as I was lacking the 5 mm ones.

I’d be very happy with the latch hook (I’ve always wanted to try rug-making), the travel iron and the buttons (you can never have too many). Lovely lot of swag you have there!

Everything added to the stash for further experimenting and playing 🙂

I’d be doing that too – except maybe if I hated pink I’d give that yarn away…

Everything pink is going into a *special* project I’m planning to do 🙂

Das kommt erstmal zum Bestand, bis mich die Muse küßt (bzw. mir mit dem – gestrickten – Baseballschläger einen überzieht 😉 )
