Oxford, You Are One Lucky City!

I'd mentioned a few posts back that I'd won a couple of Moving To Oxford, England And Can't Take All The Yarn Destash Giveaways from Kathleen at Knit Like You Mean It. Well, Kathleen made the move Thursday, and I'm really looking forward to reading about her adventures and triumphs in England. I hope you all will too. Meanwhile, here's the amazing mix of prizes and surprises that arrived today!



4 skeins of Rowan Lightweight DK in Olive and about 2/3 of a skein of Celery
Alchemy Yarns Reservoir in "The Night Air", a fabulous colorway of navy thru royal blue, forest green and silvery grey
4 skeins of Alchemy Yarns Wabi Sabi in "Joshua Tree", a rich coppery tone that really shows the 2/3 silk content to great advantage
2 skeins of Jamieson & Smith Soft Spun in a beautiful blue that put our skies to shame today, plus Jared Flood's Habitat Hat patttern.
A cute sticky note pad with a sheep. I know this because Kathleen wrote "A sheep" with a little arrow on the top note.

May I just say OMG and Thank You, and I sure hope Oxford turns out to be 100 times the wonderful opportunity that you're expecting!
