Feels Like Home
Feels like home to me . . .

Look what was waiting for me when I got back from DC! My very first piece of mail (sorry, Mom - she beat even you) at my new San Diego address, and it's a package full of exciting goodies.It turns out that Emily of Yarn Miracle was my the Sock Yarn Addicts Club sock swap sender, and, in an amazing coincidence, she included a pin for Washington, DC, the city from which I just returned. Small world. The pin makes me think that these are my socks (scroll down), which means that I now own socks that have made it to Maryland Sheep and Wool. Would that I were as lucky as my socks!
She sent me these gorgeous bright green and blue socks - a lovely rib pattern with a cable going up each side. They fit wonderfully (but that photo didn't come out well at all).
Nice and stretchy, gorgeous colors - Emily, tell us, what yarn is it?

Those are some mighty purty socks! Glad to hear you are back safely from DC, with a lovely package waiting too.

The colors are gorgeous!
Lovely socks.
Yea for packages and handknit socks!
Ditto on what silverarrowknits just said. I love packages. I love socks. Someday soon I will send you a package... sadly, it will not contain socks. But it may contain a sock box...
Packages and socks as your first mail! Awesome.
I love the color of the socks -- great pal!
Gorgeous socks. And nothing makes you feel connected in a new place like a package at your new address!
Wow - could your new piece of mail be more perfect!
You've been zipping back and forth across the country! What a nice gift to come home to.
Yes, those are the Marland Socks - they also met Mr. Roger's Sweater. I am afraid that they will be expecting a lot from you as far as travel and entertainment goes. I will appologize for that in advance...
They are made out of Cherry Tree Hill Supersock Potluck (greens). You said "go wild" and that was the wildest (and loudest) green I had!
That is so cool! Emily is one of my favorite bloggers and I remember that post well from right after it was written. My worlds collide.
By the way, "Feels Like Home" was Matt's and my first dance song at our wedding.
