My One Skein Pal sent me my second skein and my knitted gift all in one package, and it turned up just when I needed a smile put back on my face.
She sent me a lovely skein of New Zealand yarn from Utiku Yarns it is 100% wool in a some lovely green shades, I love green. I never use to as when I went to Catholic School as a young girl, I am talking primary school, we wore Bottle Green uniform, and I wasn't that impressed with that colour for many years, but over the past probably 6 or so years, I have been getting back into green colours. My knitting gift was a Clapotis Hat, yes you read it right, A Clapotis Hat, in lovely colours, which probably won't go to bad with my green Clapotis, my One skein Pal also made some stitch markers for me, thank you so much to Knitting with Zen for my wonderful gifts.

I'm a friend of Emma's and absolutely loved the hat when she showed it to me over the weekend. So glad to hear you like it too!
Oh how I longed for a green uniform!! I had Tan in Primary and Dark Blue in High School. Glad you are having a good day and such lovely gifts too!!!!

Hope You bring it on saturday.
I'm glad that today is going a little better. The colors of the hat are gorgeous! Though I am now going to be noodling all day on how to knit a clapotis hat. :)
She is one cool pal - I scored her in the dye-o-rama swap. yay for today....thinking of you for tomorrow.
Great pile of loot! My primary school colours were purple and green, a bit like Wimbledon.
Good luck for the next few days.
Beautiful colors ... your Pal did a fine job!
Gorgeous colours, hat and yarns.
