Photos of my Swap Package!

To begin, I must apologize to my wonderful pal CentyB for the delay in posting these photos. My camera cord has been MIA since returning from my wedding so I had to go to Walgreens and have my photos put on CD so that I could upload them.

So, without further delay, here is my wonderful package!

Here's a picture of all of my beautifully wrapped goodies (taken immediately before I shamelessly ripped into them).



And here's all of the goodies in my scarf kit unwrapped:


And now, for some closeups. Here's the yarn (Knitpicks Swish Worsted Weight) for my scarf kit:


Knitpick's Harmony Wood Circulars. As luck would have it, I was getting ready to cast on my sister's Christmas present when the package arrived which required the exact same size needle that came in my package. So, the picture below shows the needles, which are already in use :)


Charmed Knits!!! Woo Hoo!!!



Hand knit socks (CentyB's first toe ups) which are very very warm and cozy. I've already worn them and shown them off and my weekly SnB.


Yummy craisins ... mmmm ... my favorite snack!




Partylite tealight candles and a Mad-Eye Moody bath fizzy! :)




Yummy candies and mints (notice that the toblerone bar didn't last long... I'd never had one before and started eating it while I was opening the rest of my goodies).

And a note pad and clip!


Thanks again CentyB for this wonderful, best-kit-worthy scarf kit!
