Everthing was wrapped up so nicely... one package even had a little dog collar & "woof" tag wrapping it!
Until I tore into it all faster than the speed of light and found all this yummy-ness!
OMG, can you say S-P-O-I-L-E-D??!! Cass included one of the most wonderful, kind notes ever and explained to me that this was not a traditional "dishcloth swap" box per say, but it came to me with a spa theme. Me loves spa theme... very nice!
There were so many cool & unique things inside the box, inlcuding knit-theme hand stamped mini note cards, a "Wag More, Bark Less" (such words to live by!) sticker that will soon find its way to my car and the coolest little notebook that was made from a Black Dog Ale 6-pack box.... how friggin' cool! Cass included my babies and sent them some great chicken & carrot organic dog treats that they've been drooling over! And... there were, of course, some wonderful handknits & beautiful cotton yarns...
There you see a most amazing stoneware mug with a custom knit cozy (this is going to be so perfect all winter long!), 2 face cleansing cloths, a face scrubby and a luxurious eye pillow (for which I was eyeing - no pun intended! - and anxiously awaiting the pattern on Cass' site!). There's also yarn ... 2 skeins of Sugar 'n Cream, a skein of Cotton Ease and a skein of Pakucho Organic Cotton that I can not wait to try! It is made in Peru and feels so super soft.
Then there's the "mmm... good" part of the package...
There is a vanilla travel candly, Te Tao bath & body set, chocolate, tea (including some Teaology Lavender Mint that I can't wait to try) and the most delicious Butter Cream coffee, which we've made 3 times now and love it. It goes especially good with the seasonal vanilla spiced rum coffee creamer that's out now! YUM-O!
Thank you Cass... this was a fan-tab-ulous spoiler box and you really nailed me to a "T"!
In other knitting related news, I spent some time packaging up my first few sets of stitch markers that will officially be for sale at A Knitter's Garden (I'll get to some more for Etsy shortly, after I finish all the knitting & gifts for the AKG Open House). Here's the first 8 sets of "Stitch Markers by Lapdog Creations"...

Stay tuned for a recap of my Dog Needle Felting Class...

Wow. Exceptionally awesome. I have a "wag more, bark less" sticker too, and I told Cass I think that's our house's theme.
The stitch markers look incredible too. Wish I could come shop!!
LOVE the stitch markers. What a great swap package, too! WOW!
Great loot!
So home you decided how much you're charging for the stitchmarkers? Are you going to set up an etsy shop?
Far-freakin'-out! Seeing such cool stuff makes me wish that we had more than three square inches of free space left in the house.
What a great swap gift! You are one lucky gal! And I love, love the stitch markers...very cute!
Looks like you had a good weekend!
Did you hit the swap partner jackpot or what??? Cass deserves to win for the best spoiler prize! Your stitch markers look great and I love your packaging.
