I just got my Dog Days of Summer Dishcloth Swap package and my pal spoiling me is none other then Melissa B ! Thank you so much for all my goodies!!! Such a great spoiling! I left a post on her blog (hopefully I got the right Melissa) to say I think her cloth was nice but mine is nicer ...lol I love the colors and the pattern is really neat! (reason for close-up) The colors are right on!
Now is that a varigated or different colors she used I wonder? I was so surprised when I opened the package and read her note after taking everythng out of the box...Pineapple Body soap & moisturizer from my favorite place, a booklet of dishcloths that are crochet and knit (for this new knitter to try), a skein of really soft shine worsted Pima Cotton in Wisteria..a cloth for me I'm thinking :) Also in my package is a package of Comfort Grip for my crochet hooks..gotta admit, first time I've seen anything like that (I have to get out more)! Can't wait to try them out.
Melissa, you did good with the Altoids Chocolate covered Mints..they made it, only alittle soft but all still in their own shape and alittle warm..lol It just so happen I heard the mail truck and hubby went right out to get the mail, otherwise I think they would've been mush...so Yeah... I got to get some Chocolate and Ican say they are mighty good!!!! (yes I still have some left)
Thanks so much Melissa for being such a great pal, I hope we can stay in touch! It'd be great to get to know you more.
Thank you Anne & Chan for having a second round!

You are welcome! I had a blast this round as well! I really liked making that cloth, has some texture and a pattern and it made for a fun knit! Glad the mints made it! Oh, and I found the comfort grips at a local Hobby Lobby store. I thought even if you had a few, I bet you didn't have any purple! :) Glad you enjoyed everything!
Oh, and the yarn is a varigated Plymouth Fantasy Naturale. I love this yarn! I have used it for anything from cloths to baby items.
Mary, you were deservedly spoiled. Nice stuff! I love those altoid choclate mints too. I made the mistake of leaveing a box in my car in early spring...it had melted during the heat of the day but turned solid over the cold of the night.. I had a glob of altoids and chocolate ;-)
What a great package! That cloth is lovely.
I love that cloth! What a wonderful package. Melissa certainly "got your number" so to speak.
You got a great package! I love that cloth too! :-)
