Seraphina: Mission Accomplished



Yea!! I'm done! I fell in love with this pattern when I saw it. And I bid on the wool shown in the previous post and won....not having a clue what I'd make with it. Then it clicked. I am really very proud of this and will wear it a lot. I was really lucky to get hubby to take 2 pics! I hope ya like it.

Ooohh...Ahhhh!

Hehehe! Here's my new wool. When I get some pics, I'll post my progress on my seraphina shawl. The colors and pattern complement each other very well. Makes me happy!







Bad pics, but you get the idea. I just fell in love with this wool!

Woolie Goodness!

I was tickled pink on Friday to receive 2 packages in the mail! I'm participating in the wild & woolie swap at the 'Ville and got the wool I ordered for my partner. I was very pleased and hope she will be too. The other package....yeah, it was for me. I was just *looking* on ebay and saw an auction about to end on 10 balls of beautiful variegated wool. So I bid...and won! I know I need it like another hole in the head, but the colors....wow!! So, I'm in wool heaven at the moment. Just have to finish up a little extra for my partner so I can get her package shipped out. Swapping is a blast. It involves some of my favorite things....making someone smile, yarn, shopping, and getting surprises! Can you beat that?

I plan to start yet another project with my new wool. I'm thinking the Seraphina shawl. I don't want to felt it because it is soooooo soft! We'll have to see how it goes. If I frog, so be it. It's a pleasure just to pet the wool! I'll be uploading pics soon to share with everyone, and will be ordering more from this seller in the future. She has the most beautiful yarns!!!

There's nothing like yarn to brighten your day!

Kristen's Krochet



Ok, people. Believe it or not, I'm here in the land of Blog. I'm not sure anyone besides me is impressed, and that's ok. I'm just jumping on the bandwagon to stake my claim on my own little corner of the 'net. I'll probably ramble on aimlessly, like I'm doing now. And I'll show a lot of pics of things that I've hooked. So come on in and sit a spell. Enjoy your visit in the land of Kristen's Krochet!
