When I called my hubby yesterday to tell him I was on my way home from work, his answer, “well someone made out like a bandit”. As innocently as possible I replied, “I don’t understand. What do you mean someone made out like a bandit?”. I was then informed he was looking at four packages on the counter, and they were all from yarn companies. I couldn’t believe that my yarn had already arrived, especially since I just ordered it on Friday. Talk about excellent shipping service!
I was giggling with delight as I opened each package and hugged the luscious fiber that was carefully wrapped inside. As I laid each skein out on the counter, my hubby peeked over my shoulder and commented that they were indeed “very pretty”. I was in awe at the gorgeous fiber that was in front on me and started thinking about what projects would be best suited for the yarn or color.
My hubby then started picking the skeins to really look at the colors. He was amazed that the yarn was so soft and told me that I really should buy more if it was still on sale, afterall a knitter is only as good as the yarn she has to knit with. Can I just say right now to the whole world, I love my husband!!!
