I'm getting a little behind on sharing the fun yarn that magically shows up on my doorstep. So take a peek and go order some too.
I'll start with sock clubs.
The Chewy Spaghetti Blue Plate Special included a fun yarn named 'Impudent', an interesting pattern and you gotta love the sock monkey bag...
Roxanne from Zen Yarn Garden always dyes up a wonderful surprise to open. Here is 'Rambling Rose'...
The Tempted club that Loops runs is very springy this month and reminded me of Easter Peeps. Here's 'Goody'...
And now we have my fave of April. Jen from Woolgirl put together the absolute best club package around. I love all of the detail and the way it all comes together around a theme. Fantastic! The theme for this was shipment was inspired Georgia O'Keefe. The colorway is loosely based on the petunia paintings. It was dyed by Mama Llama and is called 'Georgia's Inspiration'...
She included the gorgeous yarn, zippered sock club bag, pattern, inspiration notes, clubbers contest letter on how to win yarn from her, store coupon, stitch marker, notecards with pen and a flower. She knows how to spoil her clubbers.. big time.
I've also had a few non-club skeins find there way here.
It was about time I got my hands on some Yarn Nerd purchased from The Loopy Ewe in colorway 'Emerald City'...
Another Loopy Ewe purchase was a skein of Loopy Legends in 'Michelle's Pretty Pink Cactus'...
Stacy from Tempted had a yarn in her Etsy shop I couldn't resist since it was green. She did beautiful job on 'Clover'...
My dearest Gaby bought me this gorgeous Posh Lucia in Spring Lime during one of her many online shopping benders (yep, she loves me)...
Last but not least.. here is my latest score from my all time favorite dyer, Woolly Boully. It was a special request color combo order by me and Gaby. Jenny has actually decided to make it a regular colorway of hers. Boy we sure have good taste. Here's the new and gorgeous 'bluebird'...
So I think you are caught up on the yarn happenings. Tune in Monday because I'll have big news. Not huge, but big. You'll never guess what I'm up to. Think pink.. and NO, it's not a baby.. thank goodness. Care to take a guess?
Oh come on! A baby would be fun, I know you want to start all over!
The yarn is really great and that Woolgirl club one almost makes me want to join and I don't knit socks.

OOO, drooling. Michelle's Pretty Pink Cactus was named after one of the girls in the Stitch and Bitch group I moderate. :)

I'd have to agree! Woolgirl outdid herself with this package! I love it! And that 10% coupon came right in time to buy some yarntini this morning :) When will we have time to knit all these pretty socks :)
