My Secret Pal 2,Christina,sent me a most wonderful final package.

She knit me a beautiful,wonderfully soft,alpaca scarf,with some clever beading on the ends.I really appreciate the time,effort and skill that went into this gift.
With it were two skeins of Koigu P527.The colours are just perfect for me,and I love it.Also some little samples of various Classic Elite yarns,none of which I've seen before.They'll be fun to play with.
Thank you so much Christina for being a fantastic Secret Pal.I've been so spoilt.

The back of Butterfly,growing slowly.

As does the back of Pickpocket.

Lying on top of her is the beginning of a skinny strip knit from Kureyon 128.Gorgeous autumnal tones for a "to be revealed later" gift.

I position balls and hanks of yarn I wish to contemplate at strategic points in my wool room,where I can mull over future plans.Here are some shots of my knitting thoughts !
Maya from Debbie Bliss [called Soho in the U.S.,I think] draped over pickpocket's sleeves.

This stuff is soft and beautiful.I'm told it's similar to Manos,being handspun and dyed by the same co-operative.
A couple of views of my bookcase.

Plenty to meditate on,as I quietly knit and think about life.
