Crystal aka nursepickle on ravelry sent me an awesome package. Look how she wrapped everything individually in purple tissue paper.
I’ve been waiting and waiting all month for my Ravelry purple swap. I sent mine out at the beginning of the month.
Friday night I wandered into my husband’s home office only to find out that my purple swap had been sitting in his office FOR DAYS! It clearly was addressed to me and said purple swap on it. Sheesh. Rodney Dangerfield said it best, “I don’t get no respect”.
It was a truly joyful experience to receive my swap and open each item. I had my family sitting on the edge of their seats. 🙂She sent my favorite purples and purple combos. I think I even have some purple softwist in this same colorway at home to add to. She included the Fall issue of Interweave Knits. I love the big purple pen. I will not be at a loss to find it one my crazy desk. All in all really thoughtful and gave me a great big happy purple feeling. Thanks Crystal!
Ooh – lots of purple goodness. I must confess I think the big purple pen is my favorite item in the gift box – but then you probably already know I have a soft spot for the LYS\’s big pen like that one. It makes me smile every time I sign the credit card receipt…
This whole swap thing was so much fun. I\’m looking forward to doing another!It\’ll be interesting to see if my pen stays on my desk the way the one at the store does. I have a feeling there will be people in my house looking to make off with my pen.
What a great idea! That\’s so cool. Found your blog on Ravelry. Take care!Breanne
