Thursday’s mail (Spoiler alert for any other club members!) brought the Cowardly Lion kit:

A Cowardly Lion tin with two magnets in it, another Wee Ones marker, tile magnet (for those who did the full Oz Sock club – we’ve gotten a few of these), Cowardly Lion charms, a Cowardly Lion bookmark, an accessory bag by Jhiro Designs, Union Center Knits Whatnot Sport in “Cowardly Lion” with contrasting toe skein, and the Courage sock pattern by IRISHGIRLIEKNITS! How cool is that? Carrie – it’s awesome! Great work, girl!

A little playing with my new camera’s macro mode – both skeins:

(Can you tell the Cowardly Lion kit came the same day as the new camera? :D )

    Yay!!! Both are absolutely adorable, but I’m partial to the Cowardly Lion!! And you got the sportweight….I LOVED that yarn with the toe!!!! And thank you! It has been a good week :)

    Ok, and the stitch markers….those are probably my favorite in the woolgirl kits!!!

    I may not knit socks but I have to admit that sock yarns always have great names. Have you seen the Politically Incorrect sock yarns on Etsy? Great stuff.
