My Secret Santa knows me pretty well.
I got yarn, lovely purple silk and cashmere yarn ... for a delicate something. And more yarn ... lovely blue/purple yarn, to combine with another yarn I think for a stripey something ... And finger cymbals to make a small racket with ... But the last item is a bit more tricksy, as it is fleece which needs spinning into yarn before I can do something with it, and I don't spin, But I know someone who does and I have asked her to take a few pics as she goes so that you guys can see the process. All fabulous, with lots of lovely potential ... Thank you so much, Santa! x

Hello limey~~~!!!
You. Are. Welcome!!! I'm delighted you like the gifts. As for the tricksy one, those are mohair locks, dyed, of course. I showed a picture of several little gnome like, "tiny knitteds" Quote:
I believe were knitted by you. When she saw it she thought of the locks, suggesting they'd be perfect as hair. I can't imagine there's enough there to spin into enough yarn to make any thing ... waitaminit.. perhaps a tiny knitted? Any damn how. You do with it whatever the hell you want. The shop was awesome. I felt like I was in the yarn equivalent of the wand proprietor's shop in the Harry Potter universe.

OK ... sorry I'm late to the party, but I've been sick since Christmas eve. Really hit me the day after. Anyway lets get down to it. Our SS gifted us a TON of fun! Thank you so much. We started off with a nice card and then the gifts kept coming!
First up ... the assortment of fun including an ornament spinner (very cool), The Christmas Story movie, a few asst ornaments, bottle opener and the Grande Finale ... A nerf gun with a bunny target costume! I don't think Daniel quite knew what was coming once he put that costume on. Thank you again, ZippyT!

Ha! It was great. I love the bunny suit too. I was thinking of wearing it to the DSO show on NYE. They have a costume contest. I probably won't though, cuz it'd get ruined.
