Anyhoo, so I get an email from Dana wanting to get together for lunch and we agreed on a time last Friday and we met at Local Table. The time with a dear friend and the incredible food would have been enough to make it a great afternoon, but she brought me this:
This stuff ROCKS! 200 yards of 100% Llama, sport weight. She claims that she is not a knitter, but anyone that can recognize and appreciate yarn like this has most definitely got an "inner knitter" and I am going to try my best to help her wake it up.
This is a very special yarn, given to me by a very special friend and I would like to find a very special project for it. Do any of you have any suggestions?

What a great way to spend a day, and what a nice friend. That yarn looks awsome. I agree, somewhere inside her is a hidden knitgen. I had to take a closer look in to the photo, the color of the yarn is beautiful! Whay about a scarf from a nice pattern? Have a nice day!
And if you don't know the word whay, I can tell you that translated it means "what". Happy knitting!
Dude! Definitely wake her 'beast' up! because yes, plainly her inner knitter IS a beastie (this is a VERY GOOD beastie) for picking this beautiful skein of heaven... I wonder, it looks a bit like the Llama available at the Farmer's Market.... it is YUM!
It's easy to see why she's such a good friend. But, are we actually supposed to KNIT with the yarn we buy? hmmmmmm, that's something I'll actually have to try--HA! Annie
How great that you got to meet your friend again and spent such a wonderful day with her! And she seems to be an awesome friend indeed, giving you such a yummy yarn! It looks fantastic, and I love the color!
How sweet! She very definitely has an "inner knitter" and it is your duty as a Knitter to bring it out!
How about a funky hat or beret... there would be enough for that. I haven't seen llama in person but it must be quite warm, no?
And I agree... she must be a knitter (or yarn crafter or some type). She just hasn't come to that awareness yet ;-.
