Yarn... in my mailbox?!
Oh, could things get any better?
When I came home last night from the Rogue SSSP, I was giddy. When I picked up the mail, I hit the roof! I had gotten my first knittable samples from Elann.com.
Sure, I knew these were coming soon. I paid money and joined their 'sample skeins subscription' after all. And we were just talking about it at girls-knit-out. But it was still a nice surprise.
What did I get? Four swatchable samples of their new yarns for the month (December). They're all similar colors/hues (reds), and I think that I like them all. I haven't knitted the swatches up yet, but just you wait!
They also come with their newsletter about the yarns, which have small samples of the colors. I really like that feature. Call me silly, but that's 100x better than just printing the color sheets.
So I'm happy, ensconced in yarn and ignoring loads of boxes to unpack. yay me.

Those are so pretty! I like the tweedy one. Is it nice? Are you going to bring it for us all to see?
