Yummy Yummy Yummy
It's a really good thing when this is the postmark on the package you get in the mail:
Since it's an international package, there's bound to be a customs declaration.
Pure wool yarn? What? Hooray! And when you open the box, there's that glowing and the special angelic choir singing, for this is inside:
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, are you ready for Fair Isle Fall?
This yarn is going to become Jade Starmore's Die Zauberflote. Can you believe it looks that ornate when there are actually only six colors of yarn?
In other news, who needs other news? It's Fair Isle Fall!
