SP Revealed


I finally found out who has been my secret pal for the last 3 months. Agnes had sent me an awesome package.Cute Chocolates, Green Tea Gummies, a Kitchener stitch Dog Tag, Merino/Bamboo roving and a cute card.
For the last couple of packages, I was totally convinced that she is a bit psychic since she always manage to get me something that I have been drooling for. Now I am totally convinced that she had hacked into my computer, installed a software to track the websites that I have been to and bought the stuff just to freak me out.

Just weeks ago, I was on Robyn's Nest website checking out the Kitchener Stitch Dog Tags and thought to myself that it was complete genius. Every time I need to graft my socks, I would haul out my big knitting How-to books since I can never remember how to set it up. Now I can have the instructions in my knitting bag all the time. I even added the item to my cart but never check it out. Imagine my squeal when I saw it!

Now for the Roving. She got me a beautiful merino/bamboo roving in "Lagoon" colorway. Ok, here's the even more freaky part. For the last 3 weeks, I have been putting together the itinerary for our family vacation in Thailand in November. This is going to be a $10,000 once in a life time trip. We are going to Bangkok, Chiang Mai , and Phuket.

I have just finished confirming and booking our kayak tour of the Andaman Sea and Caves. We will be kayaking into this "lagoon".

Trust me, the water is really that colour. It is milky green from the limestone.

Absolutely amazing! That can't be just a coincidence.
I think I will spin this up and save it for the knitting on the 24 hour plane ride I will be taking to get there.
Thank you Agnes! For your kindness and your thoughtfulness!

Isn't the dog tag the neatest thing, I'm the same way...I always haul out all the big books when it comes to the kitchener stitch :)

I thought you would love the roving, doesn't the bamboo add a beautiful shine and softness? Please post pictures when you spin it, I'm sure you'll make it look divine.

Oh and I'm completely envious of your upcoming trip - please blog all about it when you get back, I'm sure it will be fantastic!!!!

(OK sorry for rambling lol)
