Wow! I want it so bad the yarn and the adorable twins lol. That's an awesome find.

 

I'll trade you six pounds of sugar and cream cotton for those twins...

 

Seriously, they're adoreable. You must be so proud!

I put a request in my local Freecycle a few days ago, asking if anyone had yarn to get rid of for some charitable crochet--it's almost embarrassing how much yarn I brought home! I wish I had a working camera so I could show you.

 

1 medium trashbag with some full/partial skeins of acrylics, plus 2 afghans partially frogged.

ANNNNDDD

1 giant comforter bag crammed full of mostly unlabled yarn skeins: mostly boucles, along with some LB Wool-Ease, some LB Suede, some Caron Perfect Match or Pounders, some RHSS, some novelties, and some mystery yarn (don't know what it it). In this bag there is somewhere between 50-100 full/partial skeins and balls of yarn!!

 

I was trying to figure out what to do for a charity crochet project--baby hats for my hospital, afghans for my mom's nursing home, something for the women GYN cancer patients I care for (I'm an RN), etc. This yarn has given me the answer--Seraphinas for patients on my unit!! We have several repeat patients--in for chemo on a regular basis, or for complications, etc. We also have lots of ladies (unfortunately) who get their initial diagnosis of cervical/ovarian/uterine cancer while recovering from surgery on my unit. To make a long story short, I can find good homes for 5 or more "secret" Seraphinas from this haul.

 

Yay!!
