New Yarn and Yarn Basket

The yarn came in from Stonehedge last week, its from my last years lamb fleeces sports weight 250 yards $12.00 a skein.  I am very happy with how it turned out very soft!
A friend I work with and his wife are starting a spay neuter program for dogs and cats in Jackson Country IN and will be having a benefit on April 27th.  There will be a dj, food, and silent auction among other things to help raise the money to get it started.  I made up this yarn basket to donate for the silent auction to help them out.
It's got a little bit of everything in it including my new yarn, mill spun alpaca, mill spun sheep wool angora blend, hand spun Shetland, 2 different wool angora hand spun blends and 2 pure angora skeins.  I think they will really like it and be very surprised when I give it him tomorrow.  I am hoping there will be some knitters there so they will get a good price out of it to help get them going. God Bless!
