ISE5

Date December 11, 2007

Last week I sent my International Scarf Exchange 5 pal’s scarf.

I forgot to photograph the other things, there were some Tim Tams, handmade stitch markers and some variegated wool yarn in blues and greens. ETA: you can now see pics on my pal’s blog.

As I’ve previously mentioned this pattern is Shifting Sands by Grumperina knit in Filatura Di Crosa Zarina yarn. It blocked quite well, if a little thinner than I expected so I hope it’s warm enough for my pal. I’d definitely make this again, but it did take a long time so I’d probably do it as a “now and then” project.

On the subject of ISE5 I made this project bag one for my sister (since she can’t sew) to send her ISE5 pal.

Whew. Still working on a Christmas present or two but now I’ve gotta get stuck into uni work before my grades start slipping.

My secret pal sent Tim Tams, and YUM! What a great choice for someone who doesn’t live with them. It’s a beautiful scarf, too.

Thanks for your comment, I quite like it too :)

Tim Tams - I can’t believe they aren’t global! They should be part of the food pyramid if you ask me.

Thanks, Christmas is my favourite time of the year for the gift wrapping opportunities :)
