Jacqui pays it forward...in a big way!

Remember this pay it forward post? While I have barely thought about it (hey, it's just got to be within 365 days of the post...I work well on a deadline), Jacqui was busy busy. This arrived on my step a few days ago...

Lookie the sweet lil hedgie! He's sitting here at my desk to make me smile. And the little sock blocker with pattern and teeny skein of Opal yarn! I've wanted a sock blocker key chain for the longest time...I didn't know you could get them in a kit like this. Very cool. And the lavender chamomile sinus mask smells absolutely yummy. Ooh, and that lovely beaded thing? I thought it was a bracelet but Jacqui tells me it's a row counter I can put on the needle and move up rings as I go. You mean I can give up ticking row numbers on slips of paper that always disappear so I lose my place?? Dude, I soooo needed this! And...and...and...that "fluff" in the back? That's a braid of hand-dyed merino top...from Abby's Yarns. Which tickles me to no end since I actually met Abby last Friday while attending the Yarn Harlot's book signing. Very nice...both Abby and the braid.

Thanks, Jacqui...you rock! I'm inspired to get working on making my PIFs. As soon as I unbury myself.
