I finally finished the textile letters swap for dear Karina, who had to be so patient with me. I hope she likes the little things I prepared for her.
I added some things of the nature: pretty stones and shells I've found during different vacations and a pretty leaf. :)
I also included a couple of selfmade things, like the buttons I've already shown you, a macrame pattern with different reddish yarns (DIY for this pattern coming soon!) and a crocheted doily with a mini hook! When I showed it to my boyfriend, he asked me, if I could iron it, because it wasn't flat. ;)
I also included two pieces of fabric I bought on a trip to Kenya two years ago, a letter, a little origami box with a crane and some mini tags. :)
This is the entire content of the package:
While the first letter included little things to inspire its recipient, the second swap was more "conventional". :) I prepared this one for dear Whitney, who writes a lovely blog!
As she told me her favourite colour was mustard yellow, I bought yarn in this colour and knitted her wrist warmers. :) For this, I tried out knitting braids for the first time and it was quite easy and a lot of fun to make!
I also included some German sweets, some tags and stickers with self-carved stamps, a pretty shell from one of our vacations and a little gingerbread cutter for cute cookies. :)
I hope my swap partners like the swap packages I've prepared for them! :)

I am absolutely freaking out I am SO EXCITED!! You have really made my day and I haven't even opened the package. I hope you like yours too. You'll know the theme when you see it. ^^
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm also so excited to get your package! :) And I hope the wrist warmers fit. I had to redo the first one, because at first it was too tight... :)
Deletewow, the writs warmers are so great!
ReplyDeleteThanks. :) I should knit more braids. They always look so cute! :)
