I have been most fortunate during the Knitty SP10 round. My upstream was Boo. I was in the dark until the end. I knew I had a Canadian knitty but I did realize there were so many!
Her brother-in-law was in Japan and was able to score many really neat Hello Kitty items. A BIG THANKS to him.
I got a lovely pink mesh bag, looks like it is for beach toys, but I am going to use it as a laundry bag. A green apple Hello Kitty keychain.
Hello Kitty chop sticks with their very own case and a label so I could put my name on them. I am taking them the next time I go to the local Chinese restaurant. A white mug with another name tag. I think maybe the Japanese school children are compulsive about putting their names on things.
I now have Hello Kitty Stationary to write on.
There was also an assortment of Hello Kitty snacks - corn snacks, gummy kitties (I think), a strawberry marshmallow that was awesome, soft candies, bubble gum, pink hard candies and a heart shaped candy dispenser with kitty on the top.
Also two hanging clips which are perfect for notes to "He Who Usually Forgets".
The yarn content was also from Japan. Lovely Noro Silk Garden color 20 which has pink and purple. A pompom maker, stitch markers and row counters.
Here are a few more things that were camera shy during the first photoshoot. They are shown on the really neat tissue that everything was wrapped in.
A little purse that goes around the neck; a tooth brush and more candy!
Thanks so much for making me feel like a kid again.
Remember Hello Kitty doesn't need a mouth because she speaks from her heart.


Fun stuff! That's a great package!

I like the writing on the mug. Smurfs might be 2 apples high, but Hello Kitty weighs as much as three apples!
The BIL was very excited about the trip to the store. He said to let you know that he skipped the Hello Kitty Tolietries section (think maxi pads etc.), but the toothbrush was too much to let go!
Glad you like the yarn also!
