Yarn Purge

After having bought another sackful of knitting cones in the self-same charity shop as several weeks ago here and having problems finding some spare space to place the sack I've decided to have a purge of stash. I've gone through all bar my laceweight yarns and pulled out either odd balls that I'm never going to utilise although there was a good reason for buying them when I did. What the reason is I've no idea now so they might as well go. The other are job lots of yarn that I also bought for a reason and now decided that I'll either never knit the project I had in mind or can't remember the project.

They are all listed on e-bay here

Now I've done all the yarn I'll be moving on to the books...

UPDATE: Secret Pal 1

My first SP11 parcel arrived this morning and looked something like this:



Inside were crammed a lovely lot of goodies:


This was wrapped with a hand crocheted flower:

and revealed yumminess. I did manage to restrain myself to open the rest of the parcel before sampling it ;-)


A lovely smelling lemon candle.


A postcard from SP from Estonia.


Wonderful green yarn goodiness:

There was also this lovely variagated yarn:

which my SP sent me a picture of for a shawl that she had made with being closely inspected by Mr Pooch!


Thanks again SP!
