I got RAOK'd!! And what

I got RAOK'd!! And what a gorgeous RAOK, too!

Wendy from Catknits sent me this lovely DPN case :)

And here it is with my DPN's already in there :)

I didn't waste any time getting them in there! There is a gap for my 2mm Bamboos which currently have my Fluted Bannister sock on them. My 2.25mm Clovers are 7" long and don't fit! But that's okay, I just roll them up in the middle. How lucky am I? :)
Guess what else came today?
My Kureyon!!!

The first nine balls that I ordered from the UK. I'm still waiting on the 5 balls from eBay.
Shade 90, here it is up close.

What a great mail day :)
It was 38C again today, but because my Kureyon arrived, I came home and persisted with the sleeves from DH's sweater. I reallly need to finish this so I can start my Butterfly! So in the heat I sat with two heavy wool sleeves in my lap. But I finished them :)
So now I have to seam it, do the collar, block it, and I can start Butterfly!
Yay!

That needle case is so cool. I love it.

I keep meaning to make myself something to hold my out of control needles but just haven't gotten around to it.

Ooooh! Fab mail day! I would have hugged the mail carrier.

Love your Noro. I'm putting Butterfly on my to do list!
