Giving Thanks

i hope everyone had a wonderful thanksgiving.  ours was great.  i'm very lucky to have awesome inlaws who have sucked me into their wild and crazy family.  crazy in a good way.  you know ... the kind of crazy with laughter ... not the kind of crazy with plates getting thrown across a room, slamming doors, and crying.

anyway .... remember when i half seriously threw out this challenge?   well elizabeth took me up on  it.  look what came in the mail on saturday (receiving gifts of fiber and yarn does not constitute  cheating on the diet by the way).

4 oz of shetland wool called "bittersweet skies."  isn't it pretty?

The best family Thanksgiving? I'm convinced it's always with someone else's family.

Fabulous! Ask and you shall receive...Really glad you had a good Thanksgiving!

Lucky you. I'll bet all the primary colors will play beautifully together.

yep - it's pretty, now tell us where it's from!

The colors look great! Looking forward to seeing it all spun up! Hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend!

I'm so glad you took a picture of it because I forgot to. I had to get it in the mail and out of my hot little hands before I spun it up! And I'm glad you had a good T'giving. ENJOY!

So good to hear that you had a nice holiday! and what a lovely gift too!

Oooh, so pretty. You spinners and going to drive me nuts-o with your fiber photos. I will not spin. I will not spin. I do not need another hobby....

Gorgeous!!

Beautiful roving. I spun up some shetland/ mohair last week and it was lovely. You're really going to love it.

It's beautiful. Have you spun Shetland yet? You're going to love it!

Ooh, very nice colorway. I like the name too.
