I got mine today too I’m so excited! I love, love, love the color and the pattern!! I can’t wait to get started! Well, I’ll have to shop on the new BMFA site first though

On March 22nd, 2008 at 7:52 am Stephanie said:

Mine arrived today and I love, love, love it! Both the colors and the pattern are totally my style and the medium weight means I get the beautiful socks fast.

Well, at least as fast as my new twins will let me knit…

Keep a lookout for the “hidden key”.

Mine arrived here in Michigan today - what a shock to be one of the first! It’s lovely, and the pattern is amazing also. Can’t wait to cast on. Since we got 6+ inches of snow here last night, I’m totally in the knitting mood!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 8:15 am Katia said:

Wow, mine came today! I wasn’t really expecting it until Monday! I love the color and the pattern both! So pretty. I’m so in the mood for this color right now, but I’ve GOT to get cracking on the two pairs I already have on the needles! *frets*

On March 22nd, 2008 at 8:19 am Gerri said:

I just got mine here on Long Island. I can’t believe it arrived so quickly.
I do love the color, my son’s favorite… he’s going to want the socks.
And with all the Lucky Charms talk, I was at the Supermarket and had to buy a box. I had some for breakfast, checked my mail and there was my package! I am Lucky!

It has landed in Virginia! Lurve the color

On March 22nd, 2008 at 8:53 am Barbara said:

Got it in Massachusetts! My favorite weight of STR, a color I really like and a pattern I like alot, too. What more could a girl want

On March 22nd, 2008 at 8:54 am Lisa Ide said:

Wow! I like this one even more than the first! Of course, I love green so this one is perfect for me. And in medium weight too! woohoo!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 8:56 am Amanda said:

Got mine in Southern MD - we are “lucky” for SURE! This is EXACTLY the color I was hoping for…. Haven’t looked at the pattern yet….SQUEEEEEEE!

Mine has come in Boston!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 9:29 am Zina said:

Arrived in Cincinnati today… Very nice!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 9:30 am NewJerseyLaura said:

Lucky me in New Jersey - thank you, it’s beautiful. Mine reads “Horseshoe Hotrod,” maybe a sign that this pair should be for my sister who just broke her hand when kicked by a horse. She could use some luck Tina, from your hint I thought there was a lucky charm inside and just had the fun of a few minutes of squishing the skein. Any excuse to enjoy STR!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 9:32 am Loren said:

Cool! Love the yarn and the pattern. I’m just finishing up another pair of socks in green, which I call my “Will Spring Never Come?” socks, because I was so desperate for green after this miserable winter.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:00 am Chaya Mushka Davey said:

How is it that sockie’s are getting there stash in MD, MI, CT etc and us up here in Edmonds, WA NOT that far from BMFA, haven’t yet….???? We are waiting here with baited breath and empty needles!!!! HURRY!HURRY!HURRY!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:00 am Amy Boatright said:

Whee! The magic has arrived in Denver today. Green for St Paddy’s, green for spring, green for Earth Day… love it!

I just got mine in Central Florida!!!! I love it!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:15 am Sock Junkie said:

The “lucky” has landed in Memphis, TN. Love it, as Spring has Sprung! We have green everywhere with trees, flowers, and my favorite buttercups!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:15 am Cathy-Cate said:

I think, based on the fact that international packages went out last Monday, that Tina and the Sockateers were trying for our spring surprises arriving closer to the same time as each other, so we could all share the excitement! Tina did say that US packages were STARTING to go out Thursday morning. (? Suggesting maybe not all did?)

I won’t know for hours if mine came today or not; mail delivery late in the day always. But I’m excited that people far away from Oregon, including in the Snow Belt like me, have gotten theirs. So there’s hope! If not today, then soon!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:25 am Loretta said:

Central Ohio here! LOVE IT!!!!!!! “Lucky” to have mail delivery here on Saturday!!! Beautiful color!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:28 am CurlyBrunette said:

Its here in CT and I am loving loving loving it!!!! I have to finish the January socks before casting on for these. I am almost done, I have to hurry, hurry, hurry!

It arrived today in North Carolina! Too much fun but it is magically delicious!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:35 am Lisa said:

Minnesota: I am stunned. Mouth hanging open stunned. I hadn’t even considered sock yarn this week. After Easter, it will come after Easter. My mailman is proud. He gently commented that this ws the first month that I hadn’t been asking after it. As has become typical, Tina et al, you have brought pleasure and joy (Mother Nature brought more snow). Thanks!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:36 am Schultz said:

As luck would have it, I received mine today in Minnesota. This means I don’t have to wait until next week, which is what I was thinking just yesterday! This has made my weekend!
Lovely color and can’t wait to get started on that pattern. It suits the colorway perfectly.

Luck of the Irish..mine arrived just minutes ago..Love it. Shall take them along on my trip to Ireland,in May.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:45 am Ann Baker said:

I see Denver has received at least one package - so I’m hopeful that the ones for the rest of Colorado may be showing up soon??? Oh, please??

On March 22nd, 2008 at 10:53 am Sharon said:

I got mine here in Poughkeepsie, NY. I finished my Serendipity just in time, I’m wearing them now! We had Rockin’ Sock day at the school that I work the other day (totally unrelated to BMFA), and I wore my completed Serendipity socks. Private joke to myself that I actually had Rockin’ Socks on!

The color of the new kit is beautiful, I had promised my daughter that she could have one of the completed pairs from the club, and she instantly claimed these, the colorway is her favorite. Happy knitting everyone!

Mine arrived in NJ today! I went to go pick up all of our held mail, since we were away for our honeymoon, and there it was! I love the color and can’t wait to get started. Good day!

I got mine in GA!!!! I love pattern AND yarn!!!!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 11:33 am COgirl said:

Mine has to be forwarded from my house to the mountains, so maybe I’ll get it on Tuesday or Wednesday. I talked to my postman (who is wonderful) and he’s on the lookout for it and will get it forwarded immediately. I’m glad I peeked at some spoilers. I KNEW it would be green.

Anxiously waiting in Colorado. . .

It’s so bright and springlike!!! I’ve never knit with this weight before - usually do the lightweight, but I do have the needles for it!!!

Love the pattern too even though it is top down…

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! I know how I will spend my Easter, I hope!!!

Happy Easter all!!!

Well I love lucky charms, and while my mail won’t be here for another hour, the back things sound like shapes from lucky charms cereal (: Blue moon, Clover, Balloon…. Just a guess

On March 22nd, 2008 at 1:23 pm Ann Baker said:

I got mine in the wilds of Colorado (as in, not Denver)! It’s so pretty, I can hardly wait to start!! Love the color, love the pattern, may or may not tell DD and give her the opportunity to claim these socks…

On March 22nd, 2008 at 1:26 pm Kristina L said:

I just got lucky in Missouri! As with the January kit, I’m going to have fun with the yarn and the pattern…once I finish the January socks ^^;

On March 22nd, 2008 at 1:28 pm Lise said:

Here’s an Oregon arrival! Scared the bejeebers out of the mail-lady as I rushed out the front door to see if the package had come… Cool pattern!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 1:35 pm Patty said:

yeah! arrived in the suburbs of Denver!! just in time for spring break. The windows can get cleaned later! The color is great and the pattern looks fun. Thanks, the club is fun.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 1:42 pm Lindsay said:

Woot! I got mine today as well, and it was such a surprise! I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a BMFA package in anything other than a box so I TOTALLY wasn’t expecting anything when I didn’t see a box propped up on my mailbox. My mail person doesn’t exactly believe in actually bringing stuff to my door. I LOVE the color! At first glance, I wan’t sure about the pattern but after I opened it up, I can’t wait to dig into both.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 1:43 pm Jessie said:

The nation’s capital got LUCKY! I’m casting on now. What about the hidden key, though???

On March 22nd, 2008 at 2:00 pm Patti said:

I got mine in Gilberts, IL today. I have to say this is my favorite so far. I love the colors and the pattern. Cannot wait to make these.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 2:32 pm Doreen Smith said:

I got mine in Charlotte, N.C. and love it! This is my first year in the RSC and have loved both packages.

Mine is here in Hillsboro, Oregon.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 3:06 pm Regina said:

Here is Northern Virginia…don’t have the spring flowers that they have in Oregon - why is that - but I have my bit o’spring with my STR!!! Beautiful! Love the color and love the pattern!!!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 3:08 pm Karie said:

ohhhh eeeee. I love the color. This is my first year in the club and I am hooked!

The thought of linking it to the wretched cereal with gross marshmellows seems a bit disgraceful. But that is just me……

On March 22nd, 2008 at 3:10 pm Lisa said:

Tina, you have outdone yourself. That has got to be the most beautiful colorway you’ve done yet. And yes, it looks just like our green hills out here!

I think I’m going to go fondle the yarn for a bit, before I start knitting.

(I’m in Hillsboro, Oregon, just over the hill from Tina’s lovely five acres.)

On March 22nd, 2008 at 3:44 pm jusknittin@aol.com said:

OMG!!! Tina, if I didn’t know better, I would think that you made this color just for me!!! I am in love!!! Even my kids wanted to know how you knew exactly what color was mine!!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 3:46 pm Tonia said:

I was so excited that mine was here when I arrived home today:)
In Indiana it does not get much better than today- NCAA basketball tourney and RSC delivery to cast on tonight!!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 3:46 pm Amy said:

I got mine today in Vancouver, WA! I am in 3 sock clubs and they all sent GREEN yarn for March! But, each one is different- my STR is my favorite! So lush!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 3:52 pm KaarenB said:

Just excellent. NW Portland, OR delivery at 4:15 p.m. Saturday, Mar. 22.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 4:02 pm Chrissie said:

I love it! My favorite color, my favorite STR weight, and a pattern with a heel type I’ve wanted to try. I’m quickly knitting away at the last couple of inches of a pair so I can free up my appropriately-sized needles.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 4:12 pm Ruth said:

Now we’re talking about the colour!! Love it..Happy Birthday to me.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 4:25 pm Micki said:

Arrival in Grass Valley, CA–as everything growing here is reaching that neon green color-native grass, oak trees- Lucky -Shooting Stardom–is another welcome addition to the beginning of spring break!! Thanks for the beautiful colorway & cool pattern.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 4:36 pm Lynne said:

Yep - my mailbox here in Bend OR was filled to the brim with STR GREEN!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 4:58 pm Marcela said:

Green in my snowy Michigan mailbox, too

On March 22nd, 2008 at 4:58 pm Shelley Still said:

Here in MD- Annapolis Area! I Lurve it ! Saw P.O. truck, ran out and yes, grabbed the package- Saw Blue Moon and ran away then back and hugged the mailman! He turned purple and replied “Haphaphappy Easter” I love that Mailman- not as much as “Lucky” Cast on and beginning is very cool, indeed!
Thanks for making it happen. Tina- You done it again - Squeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 5:08 pm Jennifer Greenlee said:

Got it here in Little Elm, Tx today. I was shopping at Walmart when lo and behold I realized what time it was… It was mail time, so I called the friend I was supposed to meet and told her I would be 5 minutes late, I had to go check the mail box. I love the color… Happiness is yarn…

On March 22nd, 2008 at 5:13 pm KHM said:

On March 22nd, 2008 at 5:42 pm COgirl said:

I got mine! Castle Rock, Colorado. Was supposed to be forwarded, but the mailman caught me as I was leaving the house. I love him.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 5:57 pm Terrie Hale said:

Lucky arrived here in Michigan today and boy did I need it. The color is wonderful, especially after receiving 14″ of snow on Good Friday. I’m not sure spring isn’t just bypassing Michigan altogether this year. We are all so tired of it. This color is like a piece of spring brought to us when Mother Nature won’t. It also reminds me of my trip to Ireland in September last year. Thanks Tina

On March 22nd, 2008 at 6:22 pm Patricia Waterfield said:

oh, i’m a lucky gal!! my yarn and pattern arrived on a beautiful spring day in sw washington - the sun is shining, the grass is green and i’m tickled pink!! thanks, tina!!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 6:28 pm Beverly H Betz said:

Got mine, too, in Baltimore MD. LOVE the color and the pattern. Now there is kind of a Christmas thing going on…which is fine with me since it is my lovely daughter’s birthday. Before I prepare the Easter dinner for my family, I will be casting on tomorrow. I’ll look forward to seeing how the colors play out in everyone’s projects.

Mine has arrived as well and what a treat!!!!

On March 22nd, 2008 at 7:08 pm Lydia said:

I got mine today! Awesome timing too, as I JUST finished a pair of socks for my Mom.
I can’t be more pleased with the color. Somehow I had a premonition that this month’s color would be exactly what it is, and I had been ruminating on how I had no socks this color and that I really needed a pair.

On March 22nd, 2008 at 7:13 pm Donna Finneran said:

ohohohohohohoh- it is soooooo beautiful. Arrived today in Kittery, Maine. Just lovely- Tina you are truly gifted!

Mine arrived in St. Helens! Of course, it only had to go from Scappoose to Portland and back to St. Helens. I love it! It will get attention after Easter dinner tomorrow - can hardly wait! Thanks again Tina and the sockster ladies!

On March 23rd, 2008 at 5:54 am Robin said:

I love all the shades of green. This is my second year in the club and my favorite of all the colors so far. Thank you Tina! I am looking forward to learning another new knitting lesson with this new pattern, which is very pretty. Wouldn’t this Lucky color look great in a “Falling Leaf” pattern as well. I’ll have to check into that.

On March 23rd, 2008 at 7:33 am Marlene said:

Got mine Saturday in Acton, MA. This is my first year in the club and it will not be my last. Until now I have only knitted plain socks. I love being surprised by the yarn and the motiviation to try different patterns and techniques. Yay!

On March 23rd, 2008 at 2:20 pm Kelly W Pratt said:

I got mine in Michigan as well. It arrived on 3/22 and I absolutely love the pattern I am anxious to start. As the others from Michigan have reported we totally got dumped on Friday with a bunch of snow. I was on a short yarn crawl from my Grandville home to Lansing and on the way home they closed the freeway with us on it. Luckily we were the last car and the state trooper pulled up behind us and closed the freeway. My name is Kelly, totally irish, green yarn, shamrock karma, great pattern what more could a girl want?

On March 23rd, 2008 at 3:09 pm Otter said:

Mine came yesterday! Wow, great color! I am still finishing Jan sock, (took a while to finish Dec last year sock) but I can’t wait to cast on.

My yarn arived in sunny central valley - California, Oakdale to be specific on Thursday 3/22. It feels so good that it will be hard to start knitting. I just want to hold it. More later. Need to take it to my ball winder. Ciao!!

Got mine in North Carolina on Saturday. I LOVE the color and the pattern. I have 3 projects on the needles right now….all GREEN…does that mean I have Spring Fever to go along with my March Madness??

Just received mine here in SE Pennsylvania. Very cool! Loving this color. Very cool! Pattern looks neat to. Now which to knit up first…this or Jan. since I never managed to work on that one…lol

I got mine on Saturday! I just didn’t have access to a computer until today! It is such a wonderful color, I can hardly wait to knit it up!

On March 24th, 2008 at 5:41 am Jean said:

Tina, you are a genius! The color is amazing and the timing couldn’t be better; we had a white Easter. The springy greens really made my day. I have the yarn sitting out as a reminder of what Spring will look like when it finally arrives.

Mine arrived yesterday in NoVA. And it’s so perfect, I can’t believe it! LOVE the color, LOVE the pattern… and I feel really selfish, because I had planned to make the next kit for my grandmother, but this yarn being my absolute favorite color and my favorite type of pattern (anything that knits up to look like leaves really revs my engine), granny will have to wait for the next one.

I got mine Saurday too! It was such a surprise to have my package — I wasn’t going to start looking for it until next week. No spoiler needed thie time! I had been sick since Friday night so it was just what I needed to put me on the path to feeling better!! I. LOVE. THIS. COLOR!!!!!! WOOooooo HOOooooo!

Lou - when I saw the colors I knew that it would be right up your alley. Beth got hers on Saturday, but I haven’t gotten mine yet. She did bring it in to work today, though, so I could enjoy it.

Mine came to Northern VA on Saturday, the colors are glorious!! I finished the previous pair just in time.

On March 24th, 2008 at 10:58 am Angelia said:

I got mine Saturday. It was waiting for me when I got home from NYC. What a great welcome home! The color is not my favorite (in general) , but I love the colorway & the pattern. I can’t wait to get started! Thanks for introducing me to new techniques.

Oh! I live in PA.

I was looking forward to getting this package - but wasn’t all too riled up about it until… I saw some spoiler picks!

OMG! Now I am *totally* obsessing!! I really really hope it arrives today. I can’t stand it. Our mail doesn’t usually arrive until 2pm - sometimes as late as 3:30. meh…

The anticipation is killing me.

p.s. I am in Seattle.

Monday has been good to me!! Received mine today in southwest Florida!! Its EASY being green

On March 24th, 2008 at 11:18 am Twinkerbell said:

I’m hoping I get mine today too, the anticipation is killing me , and my mailman is slow too, usually not till like 3:30 or 4:00 so I can’t even look at it on a lunch break. I haven’t looked at spoiler pictures, unfortunately some people have mentioned the specific color in their posts, so I sort of have an idea of what to expect.

I just received my Lucky in Soldotna, Alaska! I just love it!

On March 24th, 2008 at 12:32 pm Kathleen said:

Mine was here waiting for me when I got to work this morning. Due to the huge hassle of getting things delivered at my home address, I get packages delivered to work - it make the day so exciting to have a pretty skein sitting on my desk

On March 24th, 2008 at 12:34 pm Donna Lynch said:

Ah, the cruelty, to be only hours away from the fiber that stirs my knitting soul (Edgewood, WA), only to be the last on the list of receipeints . . . surely the knitting gods could be kinder . . . I even finished the Serendipity pair in time to have a set of needles ready!

On March 24th, 2008 at 1:19 pm Traci said:

I just received my beautiful yarn in Montara, CA. The color is glorious! Thank you! The pattern looks great with several new challenges. I’m resisting the urge to cast on immediately.

On March 24th, 2008 at 1:28 pm Rebekah said:

Just got in Berkeley,CA. I want to cover my house in this colorway - yummy!! Label said “Blue Moon breakout”. Thank you!!

On March 24th, 2008 at 2:00 pm Deb said:

My package arrived today! Love the pattern and the yarn! Mine are shooting stardom! I almost have the Dragon Dance socks done for DIL so I should be able to cast on this week after I finish fondling the yarn a little more! When I showed the yarn to my daughter though, she said, it’s nice but I was hoping for purple (which can be deciphered as I was hoping for purple so you’d volunteer to make these socks for me)! Can’t wait to read about the yarn…but that’s for tonight!

On March 24th, 2008 at 2:04 pm Gisele M Hawkins said:

On vacation and don’t know if mine arrived yet so can’t wait to get home. I am so behind that I am just finishing the first yarn, firey red and simply love it. I know I will love the new green. If it is as beautiful as the first, I may not make socks, but a sweater for my daughter.

Thanks!

On March 24th, 2008 at 2:19 pm rubycakes said:

Yea!! Its here! No hidden key for me - but love the color and the pattern. So very happy!

On March 24th, 2008 at 2:32 pm KnittingSarah said:

It arrived in Seattle today!! Love the pattern! Love the color! But I’m thinking of splitting them up. After reading Tina’s notes and looking at the pattern I can see the feathers and nothing else. Ahhh the power of suggestion…

Once again, the country has the March shipment, but not me in Fresno. Maybe Fresno should be treated like an international shipment!

On March 24th, 2008 at 3:32 pm Kristina said:

I got mine and I just love it. At first I was a bit disappointed with the green just because I’m not a green person, but then I read Tina’s pages about it and started falling in love… and then I saw the pattern and I was instantly hooked too! I can’t wait to cast on…

On March 24th, 2008 at 4:17 pm Linda said:

I got mine in Snohmish, WA…just north of Seattle. Lovely green and Heart Hero inside the label. I’ll start my socks tomorrow.

On March 24th, 2008 at 4:38 pm Elaine said:

I got mine, Camano Island, WA, north of Linda in Snohomish… wow, I would’ve thought we would get them so much faster, since we are so close to Oregon. Boy, I wish I still lived in Forest Grove! LOVE the colors, love the pattern, but can’t cast on yet. Last month’s socks ended up being a birthday present for my mother, who adores red… and has a small foot. THESE will be MINE.

On March 24th, 2008 at 5:11 pm Jenny Heard said:

It arrived in Everett WA today. What a great pkg on my doorstep. It is great — yarn and pattern. Thanks.

Tonight in La Crosse, Wisconsin — and about the only object of this color around! Such a sight for these Irish eyes. Thanks, Tina!

Came home to my package! Tina, you had me going there with the “Cece will love this one”! Though I do see some Cece for sure! Just finished my Serendipity socks this afternoon-literally. Finished toe decreases, wove in ends! Could this be more awesome?!

Getting Lucky in Anchorage, Alaska! :0) Can’t wait to free up some needles & Cast on!

On March 24th, 2008 at 9:58 pm Penelope said:

Yay, mine arrived today, thank goodness! I was going nuts yesterday because it didn’t arrive on Saturday. Sure, I had something else to knit, but I was was so excited to start my new socks. I kept checking this thread and reporting to my husband how many people had reportedly gotten their yarn already. He, and now I, were wondering just how many people are in the sock club. How many members are there? It would be cool to know how many members there are in each country.

Ok, enough of my wonderings…Happy knitting everyone!

On March 25th, 2008 at 2:33 am Linda Schaefer said:

wahoooo! Door County Wisconsin got LUCKY yesterday. Wound up and already have the ribbing done on one. It’s perfect on this snowy morning - helps me remember that the snow just can’t last much longer, can it????????

On March 25th, 2008 at 5:18 am Julie said:

Oh lord. It’s taking every fiber of my being to not cheat on my other project (which just may be the last few inches of the January sock) with this one. Oh I love green, and I dubbed them “My Guinness Socks” BEFORE I saw the photo of the yarn in a Guinness glass (of which I have one…yay Guinness!). LOL I absolutely love the shades, and love the pattern, and took the skein to work and made all the mundanes touch it and squish it and comment on it. I was, perhaps, a bit excited.

I ended up liking January’s sock better than I thought I would, I’m not a “red” person either, but the beautiful shading and striping, and the interesting pattern definitely grew on me. But the GREEN, oh the lush, summery, wonderful GREEN…… le sigh.

On March 25th, 2008 at 5:32 am Jenny Willey said:

I got mine yesterday in Minneapolis. I think it brought along with it Spring. The weather was cold yesterday but last night it got warmer and the sun is finally out. I thought winter was going to last forever.

On March 25th, 2008 at 6:19 am Tanya said:

yeah mine arrived yesterday as well!

On March 25th, 2008 at 7:01 am Andy said:

Mine arrived in North Dakota yesterday! I got home and right away asked my husband if my sock yarn came–he was surprised that I knew that it may have arrived, as he had hidden it on me, and was going to try to tease me to see how long it would take for me to realize it had arrived–needless to say, it did not take long! What a fabulous color! I’ll have to try to knit the socks super-crazy fast so I can have them when I go to the Final 4 hockey tournament in Denver next month (and hopefully cheer on my favorite hockey team!!!)! The color matches the jersey pretty darn close!

Mine arrived in Pleasanton, CA yesterday. Hooray!

On March 25th, 2008 at 7:07 am Joan Terrell said:

I got mine on Saturday in Sandpoint, ID. Whoo hoo. Can’t wait to start, just have to finish those gloves for the man. Ended up loving the “Dragon red,” but had my doubts. Thanks to Tina for encouraging us. Absolutely love green. Can’t wait to start. Can’t wait for Spring.

On March 25th, 2008 at 8:20 am Cyd said:

Woot! I got mine in NoVA last night! I love the colorway, never thought I’d like greens, but they look awesome!

Now if only I could get my postal person to stop *folding* things so she can cram them into my tiny mailbox, I’d be a happy camper… My patterns wind up all wrinkled and creased when she does that!

But I really should consider myself Lucky! Every other time she’s got to deliver a two-day package I get it a week late, so I should be happy I got it in only three days!

NOTORIOUS SOCK KNITTERS | MARCH 24, 2008
By Shannon
I received my sock yarn and I’m so excited that it’s the color I was hoping it would be. I don’t want to spoil it for those you who haven’t received it yet. I was reading the dyer’s notes and laughing. I love the photos of the yarn in the Guinness pint glass. That made me laugh because I was drinking ice tea out of my Guinness pint glass. Great minds think alike. It’s great to be Irish!

On March 25th, 2008 at 11:42 am Crafty Cupcake said:

I got mine yesterday (I’m in sunny San Diego!) I love green, I went on my honeymoon in Ireland and this perfect mix of greens reminds me of my wonderful vacation. Thank you Bluemoon I love it!

On March 25th, 2008 at 12:46 pm Heather said:

Lucky in Canada! After 4 days of no mail delivery, I was hoping hoping hoping. I think I scared the mailman a little with my clapping and jumping while signing for it.

It’s beautiful Tina, thank you. Mustn’t start until I finish the Love In Idleness socks for my MIL though.

On March 25th, 2008 at 12:49 pm Jennifer West said:

Just got home from a long weekend trip to Florida and here it is. Been reading all the It’s Here’s all weekend and it’s been killing me. Did peek at some spoilers becuase I just could not wait but that did not diminish the opening of the package at all. LOVE THE COLOR! LOVE THE PATTERN! It’s so me. I can’t wait to start on these.

On March 25th, 2008 at 1:35 pm Donna Lynch said:

WAHOO! There, crammed in my mailbox was my shipment . . . no family obligations . . . just the Dyers Notes, a sweet smellin’ skein and a glass of merlot. THANK YOU! Green is totally my color (althought the same could be said about the red from Janauary . . . )

On March 25th, 2008 at 2:06 pm Packerbelle said:

I picked mine up today at the PO - love the color, its so springish, especially since spring apparently has no intention of ever making it here to Minnesota.

On March 25th, 2008 at 2:20 pm Jo said:

OMG! I want to roll in it!

On March 25th, 2008 at 4:12 pm Liz said:

I got my package on Monday (I’m in SC) - and I have to say - it is 2 for 2!!! Two great colors and two beautiful socks!! Of course, I’m thinking I’m not EVER going to receive one I don’t like!!!! Great job Blue Moon Team and thanks for the coupon!!!!!!! (like we need encouragement to shop!!)
Lovin’ this club!!

wednesday morning australia and i got mine too. in a ball and ready to knit . i love it .

On March 25th, 2008 at 4:49 pm Arlene said:

would’ve had it today, but no one home to sign for it. Why is that, can’t they just leave it for me? Now I have to wait until tomorrow. Can’t pick it up until the afternoon.

On March 25th, 2008 at 5:52 pm Mariko said:

Received my kit today (Calgary, Canada). It’s a beautiful shade of green. Now, I have to decide whether to put off cleaning out the flower beds…..Sure, they can wait a week, socks can’t!

On March 25th, 2008 at 8:03 pm Carina said:

I got it! Yay! finally! that holiday and canada post taking a break almost killed me, but it’s here, it’s here, it’s here!

I got mine here in Australia this morning. Just have to finish my January socks before I can cast this on

I just got my March package today in Edmonton, AB.

On March 26th, 2008 at 5:23 pm Arlene said:

Finally got it today, Canada Post takes soooo long. I guess the long weekend didn’t help either.
Love the colour, and I think I’m going to try the pattern with an option I’ve never done.
I’m in Edmonton too. By the way, how many Edmontonians are in the club? Would you like to get together and knit some socks?

On March 27th, 2008 at 5:41 am Carolyn M Parmenter said:

I got mine as well. WHEEeeeeeeeeeeee!! I ma traveling this week end to NYC on the train, so will be able to cast on and get some done!

Received mine today in the UK. Love it and can’t wait to get started but must finish 2 other projects first. Sigh!

On March 28th, 2008 at 9:08 am Wilma Schirra-Kays said:

I got mine sometime this week, it was sitting on the kitchen counter when I arrived at my “soon to be permanent” home in NV. Love the color, the name and the pattern.

On March 28th, 2008 at 2:02 pm Knit & Purl Mama said:

Mine still hasn’t shown up in Canada and people are already finished their socks! So sad. I hope mine shows up next week - getting very antsy!

On March 28th, 2008 at 2:46 pm Anita Bruce said:

Has arrived here in the UK today. Despite trying to avoid spoilers, I knew it was going to be green, but had imagined a rather livid pea green (dont ask why!). Am delighted with the actual colour - really beautiful greens edging towards jade and turquiose. Great pattern too!

On March 29th, 2008 at 12:04 am AlisonCUK said:

Another UK arrival here yesterday - so pleased with this colourway and pattern. Am online v early this Saturday morning to use Stash Enhancement coupon, before my DH is up! Please fly it VERY fast, I can’t wait to try the Laci!

On March 29th, 2008 at 4:44 am AyakoKanada said:

Yet another UK arrival yesterday! It’s beautiful green and as I am going off to skiing holiday to Austria, I am planning to take it. Can’t wait to have a taste of colour and pattern!

On March 29th, 2008 at 8:19 am ukhattie said:

Mine arrived in the UK yesterday too and I’d managed to avoid all spoilers so had no idea what was coming. I love it .. so bright and Spring-like. Great timing too as I’m just today finishing my current sock project (Solstice Slip in Pink Granite which is working out really well) so am all set to take Lucky on holiday to France next week (but such a shame I won’t be allowed to knit on the aeroplane).

On March 29th, 2008 at 4:25 pm Linda F said:

Ukhattie, at least the trip from the UK to France is not too long, but why can’t you knit? I knit from the US to the UK and back again for Christmas holidays. I just brought wooden needles in my carry-on and no one said anything.

On March 31st, 2008 at 9:50 am Martha said:

Hi everyone,

My package arrived while I was on holidays. However it was waiting at my local post office yesterday. I believe it first got to Calgary on the 25th. Thanks Tina

On March 31st, 2008 at 2:07 pm Ann Foultz said:

I finally got mine, woo-hoo. I figured out on this shipment, I guess they don’t ship the APO’s out with the overseas shipments? Just wondering why… But, I got it, and I’m happy. My label says “Rainbow Rider”.

On April 1st, 2008 at 2:37 am Hope said:

Hmmmmm… I’m still waiting in Nova Scotia. The four-day Easter weekend didn’t help, I know. I’m waiting anxiously!

On April 1st, 2008 at 3:49 am Round said:

Hmmmmm… I’m still waiting in England. It seems like a loooong time since other people started receiving their yarn. I want to feel the squishiness of this yarn and want to cast on for socks. NOW!! (Get the feeling I’m getting impatient LOL??)

On April 1st, 2008 at 6:04 am Ruth said:

I have it in Thunder Bay, Ontario I was hoping to get it before heading to the Public Library Association Conference in Minneapolis last week and there was a card from the post office telling me I could pick it up the day I was leaving (Wednesday) after 1pm - so it had to wait. However, it sure made coming home sweeter when I picked it up yesterday!

On April 1st, 2008 at 7:47 am Karen Werme said:

I received mine on 3/28/08…it’s gorgeous!!!

On April 1st, 2008 at 7:48 am Karen Werme said:

Tina, how do I order another skein of this??? (green) I love it!!

On April 1st, 2008 at 9:43 pm Alice in the Heartland said:

Karen, all you have to do is go to the BMFA website and under Rockin’ Sock Club you’ll find what you’re looking for. You won’t see the colors but since you have one you shouldn’t need it. Hope this helps you place your order. Happy Knitting, Alice

I do not have it and keep hearing from it everywhere !!!
AHHHHH love hearing people from Canada saying they got it.. last Wednesday !!!!!
Well - okay I do live north (Quebec) but I believe it’s not as far from great centers… snif..

On April 9th, 2008 at 10:39 am Liette said:

Sam La Tricoteuse, I feel your pain. I too am in Canada’s north (Yellowknife to be exact) and have not yet received my package!
We had two long weekends in a row here which would have been PRIME knitting time. But I had the advantage of having some other smaller projects on the go. I even managed to knit my guy a hat out of heavyweight Valkyrie. It’s turned out great!

On April 21st, 2008 at 11:29 pm CatherinemareeRoberts said:

LOL,My lovely parcel has arrived!! Love the colour and the pattern but havent started yet,all my needles are busy!!!
