There's a Doris Day movie on and my first yarn order is drying and otherwise ready to go out the door. I love Doris Day.
Now I know Darlene is going to peek, so believe me I seriously debated on whether or not I was going to post the surprise pics. I guess if she wants to see, then she can see!
She's getting two skeins of the yarn below: Garbage can party. That yarn is handspun from the same colorway, but the yarn she is getting will look much like the photo. She's also getting a sneak peek at the new Socktails line by Carpe Dye-Em
Cherry Fizz:
4 Pts Kirschwasser
1 pt fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp bar sugar
sparkling water
maraschino cherry
Combine all ingredients, except water and cherry in a cocktail shaker with cracked ice. Shake well. Strain over ice cubes into a chilled collins glass. Fill with sparkling water and stir gently. Garnish with cherry.
AND
Emerald Isle Cocktail
5 Parts Gin (2.5 oz)
Green Creme de Menthe (2 tsp)
3 dashes Angostura bitters
Green Maraschino Cherry
Stir liquid ingredients in a mixing glass with cracked ice. Strain into chilled cocktail glass and garnish with cherry.
I haven't photographed the Garbage Can Party Skeins yet as they are still drying, but I will grab a few photos before they go.
Its weird. I think they turned out so beautiful I kinda wanna keep them and I've never sent away anything I've made before (well except Pluggo's alpaca sock) so it feels kind of funny. Like if she hates them I will feel kind of awful!
I will be making more of these colorways because I love em! In fact I have another yarn order in for more bare stuff.
If you read this and want to buy, contact me via email or Ravelry. My ravelry ID is Bammerkt, and my email is clark.trish@gmail.com

Those are beautiful. I would knit with them both in a half a heartbeat.
ReplyDeleteGUESS WHAT!! I was a GOOD GIRL!! I didn't peek, and I am so happy that I didn't -- not that the photos aren't ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS -- but they do not even begin to compare to what the actual YARN looks like! They arrived today and I could not be more pleased!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG -- you are a color GENIUS! I honestly do feel that Noro's got nothing on you -- PLUS, the yarn base is awesome!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! You have made me a very happy yarn-a-holic ;)
