Late to the Party but Exciting Stash!

Hi everyone I'm back!  This is just a short update.  I've decided I'm going to make a new post everytime I finish a color.  Unless it's just a few stitches.  

So I know I'm late to Jo's summer shoehorn party but I'm putting in paradise.  After all summer is all about the beach right?!


Here's another color which felt like it took forever!  It's the lighter one so you can see there's a ton more.  The next color has a LOT so you may not see it again for a while.  You'll see a bit though for GG.  

What's my exciting stash?

It came!  My millennium frame came in the mail yesterday!  I've put Celtic wolf in there already and I love the tension.  A big thanks to Jo for calling them for me to jumpstart the process of sending it.  

So, it was ordered for my birthday on 4/14.  After 12 weeks had passed Jo called for me and they said it was done and they would send it out.  2 weeks later and nothing so Jo called again and he said he didn't know why it wasn't sent but it would go out later that day and the tracking would be updated.  The tracking never updated but it arrived less than a week later!  I'm not going to put paradise in it because I want the tension the same since I'm almost done and it's pretty well locked in to the current frame.  But everything else not in hand will be in there.

So I'm finally caught up on my blog reading.  I'll try to keep up now.  Here's a better shot of Mocha helping unwrap:
Sorry for the bad pics I got the 36" bars with the 14" stretchers so it's really big and difficult to photograph.

I'll see you all in 2 days!
