A great package from my SP8 pal arrived yesterday morning. Two wonderful skeins of Lorna's Laces in Black Purl ; a skein of merino laceweight that my pal had dyed herself; a lavender bag and some coilless pins.
The merino is a beautiful deep shade which my camera refuses to catch - sorry!
I'll be hunting through the patterns to find something to do these yarns justice
Well the colours all look very tasty even if they haven't come out properly!

Hi Yvonne. Any chance you have a 'how to knit' basic instruction sheet electronically? Am going to be teaching a small group here at work. Thanks!
