Oh yeah, I received my first Secret Pal 11 package and I LOVE IT!!!!! I seriously love the yarn. I keep petting it. My sister called me at work to tell me that I received a "squishy package" in the mail and I came straight home, there was no way I was staying late tonight cause I had a feeling that it was yarn. Anyhoo, I received a pair of size 10 wood knitting needles (these feel really good in my greedy little hands), two skeins of Knit Picks Main Line in Dusty Lavendar (75% Pima Cotton, 25% Merino Wool) and one skein of purple varigated 100 Pure Wool that matches the Dusty Lavendar. She also included a really nice letter, I love letters, it doesn't matter what the topic is, I just love receiving letters, it is like the biggest present for me.

Anyways, a massive thank-you to my Pal because this yarn is really cool and I honestly love it like I picked it out myself. The balls on the ends of the knitting needles remind me of my mother's macrame beads that I used to play with and make necklaces out of. I love vintage knitting and crochet notions.

aww yay! I thought that was a really pretty shade of purple too. I am knitting with the pink mainline from knitpicks right now. It's a really pretty rosey pink . I wish they made the pretty muted colours in wool of the andes!
