A Mailbox Full of Fun
Yesterday, I was delighted to find something fun in the mailbox, instead of the typical fliers, bills and other junk mail.
It was a package! A delightful package from Carmen at Carmie’s Cozy Conifer Cabin.
And in that delightful package was some lovely, colorful yarn that she knew she’d never use and wanted to give away.
Since I’m still a fairly new knitter and haven’t acquired a big “stash” of yarn, I gladly said I would take the yarn she did not need.
She told me that she originally was planning on making something baby-esque with it, and I think that’s exactly what I plan on doing, too, for a couple of special mamas I know who are expecting …
With my current projects, as well as these baby projects and two prayer shawls in my queue, I have plenty of yarn and plenty of projects to last me awhile. No purchasing yarn “just because” for me! I will take the wise advice of Carmen and Jenn and keep my stash manageable.
Thanks, Carmen, for sharing your yarn with me! I will be sure to share the end results of my baby projects here and on Ravelry!

Hmmm. I wonder what qualifies as 'manageable'? 🙂
Oh! Oh! Oh! Yarn in the mail? What could be more lovely! You are going to have so much fun with all that!
Sarah, I think a "manageable" stash means something different to each knitter …
You're Welcome! I can't believe you received it already. "Manageable" (to me) means it must fit into my yarn basket. If the basket overflows, I've got too much yarn!
yay!
yarn in the mail.
what fun!
