Main

"Here's the mail, it never fails, makes me wanna wag my tail!" Am I the only one who watched Blues Clues just to admire Steve?
Anyway, I got a parcel from the fabulous Rox, who started a new job on Monday.

Yes, I'm excited over Sugar n Cream. We can't get it here. For the Aussies, it's a little thicker than an 8ply, and it feels a bit sturdier than the cottons we can get. Recommended gauge is 20sts on 4.5mm needles.
The package also contained that cute little tin you see, and the card. Thanks Rox!
Ene is progressing nicely.

It's actually grown a bit since this pic was taken. I've done two repeats of chart 3, and I'm down to 217 sts. The rows keep getting quicker and quicker.
It's such a nice change :)

I like the progress and you are a lucky girl getting some cotton.

The Ene is already positively beautiful!

Oh, rats! I wish I'd known you wanted some! I was at Michael's craft store yesterday and they had bins full. Tell you what...if you would still like some S&C in different colors, I'd be willing to propose a trade...for Cherry Ripes, which we cannot get here...(looking slyly at monitor and whistling...)

Ene is beautiful and looks so soft!!

Your Ene scarf is coming along beautifully. I can't get over how pretty the yarn your using is!

Hee hee, Steve is cute! My 11 year oold daughter still loves that show LOL. The shawl is stunning!! I LOVE the colours. I found some Sugar and Cream on eBay, but it was just plain white. Wish we could get some of the US stuff over here :-)

Oh, such a great package you received - I love the yarn! And your Ene is coming along so fine, it's going to look fantastic once it's done - actually it already DOES look fantastic!
