This year, I have been fortunate to make many new internet friends via my Secret of the Stole knit-a-long groups. So, in lieu of participating in an official, organized, internet knitter’s swap this year, I chose one person that I had become friends with and asked her if she would like to be my Christmas Swap Partner this year. She accepted and we have had a lot of fun picking out gifts for each other over the last 6 weeks, or so.
Yesterday, we hooked up via Skype video chat and opened our boxes together. We both have dogs (children) and both enjoy lace knitting immensly. She included a fur coat, a stylin’ sweater, and a very prissy dress for Ebby in the package as well as a dinosaur nylabone for the Blaze. He has taken to sleeping on top of it for safekeeping. I will spare you the photo of that… Thanks Erin for all the really cool gifts! Here is a photo of the contents of my totally awesome box of Christmas goodies:

Whoo Hoo, look at all the swag!!
Merry Christmas (or whatever else you may be celebrating) Everyone!!! See you on the flipside…
Merry Christmas to you too and Happy Holidays to those who celebrate another way!
Wheee! That’s a wonderful box of swag! I’ve got one of those “Good to Go” bags, and I love it! (I’m curious, though… what are “Natural Choke Crunchy Treats”? I’m hoping something with artichokes…!)
Happy Christmas!!
