One Skein Package Received!

Thank you so much, OSSP! I picked up your package from the post office yesterday! I was ecstatic and touched with the wonderful yarn and additional gifts you sent me! You can see in the picture what a treasure trove I received!
She sent me a skein of Cascade 220 in a lovely shade of purple (my favorite color), beautiful handmade stitch markers, the One Skein Wonder pattern by Glampyre that I've always wanted to try, and a little duckie for my son that gauges bath temperature. I love it all! I'm definitely going to try out that One Skein Wonder now! The Cascade 220 may work for it. I've always wanted to knit with Cascade 220 and never gotten around to it, so here's my chance! I have an awesome One Skein Pal!
The return address on the label said Long Beach, California, so my Pal must do a lot of warm-weather knitting. Do you, OSSP?
Here's a closer look at the stitch markers:

One Skein Package Sent

Yesterday I sent out my package to my pal Mary. She both knits and crochets. Most of her projects are done in miniature. I can't belive she can see stitches as small as she makes them!
We've been having a good time corresponding. She has never tried a ladder yarn, so I decided to send her Bernat Matrix in the shade Natural Network. Along with that skein I included a CD I burned with all the free crochet and felting patterns I've found on the web. Mary has just started to have fun with felting, so I thought she'd enjoy the patterns I've accumulated.
Next month I'm planning on sending her a CD with all the free knitting patterns I've discovered and a couple pattern books. She'll have so many patterns she won't know what to do with!
