So, last time I showed you what I received, now that my downstream swap partner received her gift I can show you what I knit and gave her.
As you know, I love the Summer Wind pattern by IrishGirlieKnits. It was a Winter Swap and since my partner lives in a very cold and wintery part of the country I was drawn to this pattern for its name...bring on Summer!!
The lighting still seems off, so here is a photo of the yarn during a better weather day:
See how it is a bit brighter?
Pattern: Summer Wind by IrishGirlie Knits
Yarn: Cascade Yarns Ultra Pima

Anyway the entire package looked a bit like this:
Madeline Tosh Vintage in the Mare Colorway
Valley Yarns in various colors & weights
Frog magnets that were made from a children's book with a bag made from the pages
Fabric squares (my swap partner also quilts) with a fabric bag
Cold Stone Creamery Hot Chocolate
Snowflake Stitch Markers
This was my first knitting swap and I really enjoyed it! I hope to be able to participate in the future!
