It's snowing today and I don't feel like going out! What a perfect excuse to stay inside, cuddle up on the sofa and knit!!! I'm getting so addicted to knitting hexipuffs for the Beekeepers Quilt. I knit a total of 6 yesterday! That is the most I have knit in one day. Some of them were for me and some were for swaps I am in on Ravelry. I also received two of my swap packages already!! I now have 11 hexipuffs for my blanket. I received this package from studioloo (Cindy) in the Art Yarn Group Swap. Lots of lovely mini skeins hand dyed by Cindy too! Then I got my package from the Funonion Group handspun hexipuff swap. I got a puff in pink handspun from Upstreamalpacas. My favorite color so of course I love it!!

I participated in a Fall themed swap in one of my knitting groups on Ravelry. We had to send our swappe things that reminded us of fall. My package came from JQknits and it is awesome. She sent me a ton of her own fiber and hand spun yarn and I love it all. Thank you so much !!!

I participated in a swap on the Ravelry site with one of the groups I belong to, Think Pink. Its for people who like Pink. I had just about the best swap pattern ever! Everything I said I liked or might want she got me! Here it is all wrapped in pink and christmas prettiness. I got my favorite rold gold pretzels, my favorite Tazo Calm Tea, 2 skeins of pink Malabrigo silky merino yarn, The Stitch n' Bitch knitters handbook, Gnome stitch markers, a pattern for a shirt, hersey's kisses, super soft pink socks, candy canes and a mini pink Christmas Tree! I love it all thanks so much Suzy!
