I've been remiss in posting about the swap package I received from Cecilia Kettleburn for the Hogwarts Sock Kit Swap. Here it is, finally:



The yarn Cecilia included is the softest sock yarn I've ever felt! Softer than the squishiest merinos even.



It's kind of chenille-like...but nicer than most that I've experienced. It'll be fun trying it out.

There was a size 2 Addi Turbo, which is awesome because I love them and didn't have one in that size. She included the book Charmed Knits (as you see in the photo above). I'm really excited about that one, because I'd been hemming and hawing over buying it for ages.

I don't have a separate shot of the hand-covered blank book, but you can see it in the photo above too. Very pretty! I have to find something special to use it for. Cecilia also made me my very own wand:



I've saved the best for last, though. She made me these BEAUTIFUL Ravenclaw (book colors!) stitch markers:



AND a matching bracelet:



Cecilia really did a fantastic job on short notice (my previous spoiler dropped out of the swap fairly late in the process). Thank you, Ceci! :D
