So now, the gift. I got my last package from my Secret Pal, who happens to be Melanie. I am totally in love with everything she sent.

So what you see is yarn, fantastic organic chocolate (I already ate some!) and a fabulous-smelling soap.

The label says Huacaya Alpaca + Chiengora. Chiengora? Isn't that dog yarn? How cool! The only thing I'm worried about is that I'm allergic to dogs. I've been petting the yarn for a while now and I seem to be ok so I'm assuming either it's not really dog hair or I'm really allergic to dog's saliva and not the hair. Who knows. I have over 460 yards of it and I'd really like to make a shawl. I just need to find the perfect pattern (I accept suggestions).
Anyways. I hadn't planned on signing up for Secret Pal 11, but I just changed my mind. Sign-ups are up until July 31st, so visit this site if you want to play!
Oh I almost forgot to mention: I just cast on for another project : Coachella. I'll post WIP pics soon.
