My Nomination for Best Kit!!!

Can I just say "WOW"?! Last term, I saw Eugene's kit from Lizzie Wychwood, and instantly wanted to be spoiled by her...Lucky me, I got that wish granted this term! And again, I say: "WOW"!!!! The thought and care she puts into the package just blows me away! I'm sure I didn't show all the enthusiasm I really felt, given that I opened it all after the fiasco that was my flight in from Venice, but I assure, you Lizzie, it completely made my day and all the hassle of flying with my boys completely worth it!!! My nomination for best kit absolutely goes to my fantastic spoiler!

The Bag (Brea Bag), which I have had queued on Rav since nearly the time I became a member...

The beautiful bronze-y inside!:

Sock pattern, bag pattern, and stitch marker instructions:



Sock yarn (HBP Harry colorway), YUMMY yarn for the bag, and leftovers from the Brea Bag so I can make a matching wallet (which wasn't really part of the kit, but it goes with it...lol):

The HBP Harry colorway:

The gorgeous yarn for the bag:

The bag pattern, yarn, and bluetiful (hahaha) material for lining:

Yummy Muggle Sweets!:

The most gorgeous sock blockers EVER!!!!! (And my very first sock blockers):

Close-up of the eagle painted on the sock blockers:

Knit Picks size 2.5 mm dpns, knitting gauge (also my first!), and needle point protectors (again, a first!):

Mini-sock keychain that matches my Brea Bag:

Stitch marker instructions and supplies (which I am very excited about because I've wanted to learn how to make stitch markers for a while now!), and though it's not pictured (security in Gatwick wouldn't let me board the plane with it) there was also a 3-in-1 tool for making stitchmarkers:

Close-up of what my first self-made stitch markers will be made of:

The whole kit!!!:

So many "firsts" that have filled out knitting tools that I didn't before have...so much blue, which is the bestest color ever, and a bag that I fell in love with on sight! And to top it all off, I got it when I was the most stressed and frustrated, and I couldn't think of a better pick-me-up! Like I said: "WOW"!!!!! Thank you so very much, Lizzie!!! I love every part of it!!!
