Fast shipping, or what?

Look what made its way to my mailbox yesterday!!!

B&L Atlantic
14 hanks of Atlantic from Canadian Briggs and Little

I ordered it from Jennifer Appleby at The Woollen Earth on Friday, December 12th. I had it in my mailbox on Monday, December 22nd. Not bad. Not bad at all...

The yarn is lovely. It's sort of sheep's oily (if that makes sense to anyone) and it smells of sheep. This yarn is real.

And the colour is beautifully heathered. Check out these close ups:

Härligt!

God Jul och Gott Nytt År, och jag lovar att jag ska ta mig till stickcafé hos Fröken Garn på det nya året! (Det nyårslöftet ska inte bli så svårt att hålla)
