Stop and admire the yarn

I finished one of the Santa hats yesterday.
I am so pleased at the way it turned out. It is worked in Mayne Island home-spun. Beautiful!
I am currently working on another Santa hat. This one is worked in acrylic.
That's what I have been doing this morning racing along with my little knitting needles.
You know you would think spending a great deal of time with yarn would make me a patient person. Sadly this is not the case. I jump over fences when I could simply of walked through the gate. It was open.
I do things without thinking. Case in point, Maynely True. I had a friend of mine edit it this week-end. I thought, she won't find anything. It's perfect. ..but just to be sure I'll take this extra step. Of course I could have done this before I sent it to the printer ...but no I was too busy jumping over fences. Well she did find a few things. Then I looked it over and found a few other things. So I had to stop the presses or er printer. What was the rush? Why didn't I just slow down. No excuse. I have no excuse.
Goodness knows I am surrounded by enough beautiful things to give me pause. Case in point, what came in the mail this morning.

Beautiful! This lovely yarn will be transformed into....? Ah just a little tease. Believe me I will keep you posted.
