We interrupt this nail-biting election day...

I just found a package in my mailbox! My real mailbox, not my e-mail box.

I won a contest over at Michaela's blog -- I guessed how much money she had spent on yarn at Ally Pally! So she sent me a pretty package...


containing some pretty things...


Some note cards, a soap shaped like a bear, a postcard with a bunny angel... oh, yes, and some cashmere sock yarn! Ooh, la, I don't think one should make socks out of that, do you? A shawl (there's plenty of yardage) or perhaps a scarf and mitts? It's very soft and lovely!

Thank you so much, Michaela!
