Kinda like Christmas in July

When you don't pick up your mail for a week or more.  (Side note: there is NO mail delivery here, you have to pick it up from your box at the post office.)  Catalogs, magazines, paychecks, packages - all sorts of fun stuff.  'Course two of the packages were Traveling Scarves, those I don't get to keep, just knit on and send back out into the world. (Which is still mucho fun.) But one nifty little surprise item I do get to keep!

 

This pretty little row counter bracelet, handmade and sent to me by one of the participants in my Traveling Scarf Group! Wow - what a sweet thing to do and totally unexpected!  I've heard of row counter bracelets of course, but I've never had one before so this is going to be fun.  I wasn't able to take a decent shot of it on myself, so I found someone else to model it for me:

This is most undignified and certainly not in my contract.

You'll be hearing from my attorney tomorrow.

I think I've been doing a fairly good job with the turnaround time on these traveling scarves so far, they usually head out to their next destination within about a week.  So I'm going to let these two rest for a couple days while I finish up one sock project and start on another one. Not necessarily in that order of course!
