More birthday goodness!

I just love it when my birthday season just keeps rolling on. Today I received this birthday parcel from the lovely Val.

Look! Two skeins of her own glorious homespun. I've already been trawling through the Rav patterns looking for just the right project. All suggestions welcome.



And to top it off she include this cute vinatage booklet.



It contains this lovely shawl.



The one thing you forgot to include Val is all the extra time I now need! Thanks again for a lovely gift.

That is some fabulous yarn!! I can't wait to see what you do with it.

I am trying to be good and not look for more projects, but that shawl is worth searching for!!

Birthday Yarn and Patterns are the best.

That shawl is beautiful! But I seem to remember you wanted to stay away from shawls for a while? (Like me!) Klabauter offers a new shawl for Chrismas as well. Are we addicted?
