Mohair madness plus~ Manos!
Oooh, I am a lucky girl! Look look look what I got in the mail all the way from San Antone!
Its 500 yards of lucious Pippy-pink (actually a teensy bit more on the salmon side, don't let the orange on your monitor fool you, oh the color is yummy, trust me on this!) because any cowboy knows that the ladies can't resist it! And its not even my birthday, although that is coming up soon, which is too scary to contemplate! But there's a hint for you in there somewhere! Oh, listen to me! I am bad, bad with birthdays lately and deserve whatever apathy mine inspires, and plus I think I'm changing it to July this year, just fyi. But I digress. Where was I? Ah! Here is another view of the gift-yarn splendor!
Here is another where it is posing with the Manos I mentioned a while back. You can see the pinkishness better in this one!
See? More like cotton candy than candy corn! More petunia petal than pumpkin!
I'm not sure yet what I am going to make with it, or with the Manos. Here is the Manos by itself, just to bask in the Manos-ness.
And also close up
Yum, yum. Mine. All mine.
Thanks again to David, for the yarn! And also to Thomas and Lorie, for loaner camera!
