Package from Norway

Out of over 100 participants in the Christmas Around the World Swap, would you believe that my Norwegian friend Vigdis got my name?
How great was that. I received my package today full of goodies from Norway.
How cute are the little hat and mitten ornaments - and how much patience does it take to knit something like that? More patience than I have! Then there was some candy, a snoman ornament, carved wooden spoon ornament a tiny folded star - some beautiful pewter ornaments:













And look at this adorable Norwegian Gnome! He will have a special place next to my computer.

And some Norwegian yarn and pattern book to make some full size versions of the little ornaments...and it's in Norwegian! Guaranteeing that Vigdis will be hearing from me often to interpret the pattern!
Thank you so much Vigdis -
it was a wonderful package from a wonderful friend.

Christmas Around the World Knitter's Swap

I try not to join too many swaps at one time. To be honest, I get confused about which pal is which! But my dear friend Vigdis from Norway lured me into this swap. And since ITEIV is just about over, and the KVVS and Whoduknit Summer Swap will be over soon, I joined up. It's the Christmas Around the World Knitter's Swap and sign-ups are open now. Maybe I can lure you in too??
