german post

I arranged to have some little knitgoodies waiting for me when I arrived here in Germany. I ordered all my favorite German mags.


Burda, Verena, Rebecca, Filati

But the best post I received was a sweet package from Helene. Helene knitted our tea party mascot, Miss Muffin, and all the tiny little pastries that belong to a tiny Miss Muffin tea party. She generously sent me my own tray of yummy pastries.


mmmmmm....

Since you can't possibly appreciate how tiny these pastries are, here's a close-up with a penny for scale. Incredible, Helene! But that's not all, in recognition of my Olympic effort at finishing up all my projects before my trip, she made me this awesome gold medal. Thank you so much!


first class, Helene!

If I'm lucky there might just be a few more things on their way to me....

(It's so fun blogging from Germany. Now I can post as early as Wendy!)

Hey, you put the jam tart upside down. Be careful, all the jam will fall off!!

Helene is amazing with those mini knits! I just love 'em! And can't wait to see what you want to knit out of those german mags! What a bundle!

Hi Alison! Love your Germany updates.

Ha, ha Helene! How silly of me to put the jelly donut upside-down. I just put the yummiest looking part on top! More proof of how incredible your knitting is - the bottom looks as good as the top! :)
