Tea and Cakes

I came home from work today to this:

Such an exciting box of things!

Everything was wrapped in a cool tea-towel with cups of tea on it. How great is that?

Lifting up the teatowel revealed a whole load of presents underneath:

Unwrapped they look like this:

So many things!

A knitted cupcake! It looks good enough to eat and is very, very cute.
A first aid kit in case I stamp on more needles.
Some lovely notecards with my initial on them, which is perfect as I’ve been looking for some good notecards.
An American kitkat which I’m going to try not to eat until I have an Irish one to have with it as a taste test.
At Knits End – which I was going to get as mum bought me the yarn harlot one (same author for non-knitters) and I’m loving it.
And…a sock knitting kit – a huge ball of Lana Grossa sock yarn, some lovely short dpns – I’ve never seen short dpns for sock knitting, although I’d heard tell of them. These feel really nice and they’re totally cute. And a reversible bag to keep it all in – so much more civilised than a ziplock plastic bag.

I’m very, very excited about the sock things, and I’ll be casting on for a pair of socks with them as soon as I can decide which ones to make next.

Thank you so much Secret Pal! You’re great.
