Hog Warts Sock Swap II


Finally - I got the pictures to download - was starting to get frustrated. But here is my owl delivered swap from Petunia Butterbeer. I have to apologize for being so late to get it posted. I've had it for a while now but between being sick, in the hospital and fighting with the camera/computer, I am running way behind. I can't seem to get the pictures to load where I want them but at least it is here - so anyways - here is my box of goodies.
Besides the gorgeous socks, which fit perfectly, I got a beautiful green variegated yarn, can't wait to make these up for me. My bookmark is knit of the same yarn as my socks. The kids wanted it but it was in the wrong house colors - too bad for them. They are both Gryffindor.
I also got the Harry Potter knitting book, air freshener was melts, blood pops, a Chocolate Frog, a Hufflepuff bag with tootsie roll pops in it and a Bert's Bees facial treatment. Am I spoiled or what. Thank you so much Petunia.

Felted bag swap

Man I just can't get them where I want them. Here is the whole package - cat not included - she just has to help me. Four skeins of yarn, a mitten pattern, a felted magazine with some great patterns, a bag of coffee, a bag of coffee candy, 3 hot cider packets, the bag itself was full of peppermints and "A good yarn" by Debbie Macomber, which has a knitting pattern in it. Microwave popcorn and pumpkin shaped playing cards. What a great package.





Here it is - the felted bag I received from Cheryl - isn't this just yummy? Purple is my favorite color and this is super fabulous - thank you so much Cheryl.


This was a delightful swap - I have to apologize for being so tardy in getting this posted. Stinks to get older and get sick, don't heal too quickly I guess.
Blessings - Robin

England

OK I tried to get a picture of this - it was a huge poster of the Potter gang on Broomsticks from the last movie - took up the entire side of this HUGE building.

Update

OK October really didn't go well for me. I was sick all month and ended up in the hospital for a week - two weeks later I am still exhausted and so forth. Anyways - I got my Hogwarts sock swap (Fabulous) and my felted bag swap (also super-duper). Do you think I can get my camera adapter to hook up my computer? Of course not - the USB slots are all being particular this morning. I'm going to try one more thing before I give up and call in the techy son. I'm way behind in getting the pictures posted, just like I'm behind in getting everything else done right now - but I'm trying.
