I received my swap package from
ddiana1979; and finally got my camera working - look!

I was so excited - they are knitted (I only crochet) and the fabric is so nice and stretchy-squishy. They are gonna be a great way to start this 'ghan.
Here is a closeup of the stitches:

(bee stitch, plowed rows, welts, and slip stitch speckled rib)
She sent a nice letter, and included the names of the different stitches she used, as well as the website
www.halfknits.com to find the patterns. This was helpful to me first because I'm not so familiar with knitting, and I wasn't sure of how to turn them so they were right side up, lol.

The colors are great and go together so well, and she even put in some extra yarn for seaming or whatever else, which was a super idea.

One thing I didn't expect was an amazon.com gift card for books; a great surprise - so very nice! ::::!!Thank you Diana!!::::
