You’ve got mail!

I recently got a big package in the mail! Funny story, my husband said I could spend $50 on yarn. I happily went to the stylecraft website and purchased what I thought equaled $50 US dollars, I was under the impression that they were using Euros and converted to US dollars as such. Turns out they use pounds and I actually spent $70! Whoops… I regret nothing! Luckily my husband thought it was just as funny as I did.
Back to the original post, I finally received my yarn package!

I caught a picture of my daughter doing a softness test! She’s starting to get very interested in yarn and has taken to picking out yarn for the items I make her.
I started up an awesome granny stripe blanket with some of the yarn I ordered. The pattern is from Attic 24 and you can get it here.
It’s going to be a bigger baby blanket by the time I get done with it!
Here’s a little size comparison for you 🙂 and meet my three year old Lily:
