Baby Surprise Jacket

Catherine sent me pictures of a baby surprise jacket she knitted with Atlantis.





Thank you, Catherine, for sharing pictures of the beautiful jacket.

Ambition

Here's my third shipment from Black Bunny Fibers Club (Team B). It's a blend of 50% alpaca and 50% superfine merino. Carol has started a 3rd team of BBF. I think Carol mentioned on Ravelry that there're some spots left. Hurry over or email her.

Home safely

Just arrived home from the south. It's very hot, 105F. That's hotter than Malaysia. I'll start sending the yarns that have been purchased while I was out of town as soon as I can. A couple of new yarns will be added too. Thanks.
