"Sporran" received from Muirne of Clan Beauchamp

I belong to a group on Ravelry who love Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series of books. Members formed up into clans and we decided to have a swap. I received my sporran this week and was positively delighted by its contents. It included a handknit bag, hand-dyed sock weight yarn in my clan's colors, Scottish shortbread, cocoa, amber-colored stitch markers, needlecase, bath/body goodies and a beatiful teacup and saucer with my clan's crest!





And what a lovely wool purse with the pattern named "Caitlin" and lined in a lovely plaid!




I felt really honored to receive such a lovely gift from someone I've never met in person. I felt really loved just opening the package. This is the first swap I've ever participated in. What a generous bunch of knitters!!
