Look at the goodies I received in the mail from Red Heart Yarn! Are you drooling because I certainly was opening the box. If you look closely, you’ll see 2 skeins of their new line of yarn called Reflective. I really love the feel of the yarn so far and can’t wait to dig in and start actually using it. Of course there is my favorite in the stash, Red Heart Soft. The other gorgeous yarn is Red Heart Boutique Swanky. Well, it’s super soft and the sequins are a nice touch. I’ve never used this yarn so it will be interesting to try it out. I’m thinking some type of shawl/wrap to go along with one of my Southern lines of summer hats. What do you think?
I really can’t describe the feeling when I received the email from Red Heart Yarn saying they would love to send me yarn for my future projects and what would I like. WOW! Really? Me? Little gal from Alabama? Are you sure you have the right person? It truly is an honor to receive this yarn, and I’m hoping some great design will come out when it starts running through my fingers.
Don’t leave me yet! I have some even better news. You also have the chance to use some of their best yarn. Guess what? They are also going to sponsor me in a GIVEAWAY!! Are you smiling yet? Be sure to look for that next week with all the yummy details of what’s included. I will tell you it’s a prize package worth $125
I hope you are having a great day! Be blessed!

This is great! I noticed Red Heart Pinned your last pattern in Pinterest. Congratulations! Oh, also, Red Hart has a lovely shawl pattern for the sequence yarn. Anyway, I’m looking forward to your creativity.
Kathy Lashley says
Chelin,
A friend told me the other day Red Heart pinned Mystic beanie! What an honor I must say. I think I’ve seen the shawl you are talking about. The yarn has a great soft almost silky feel. It will be fun to work with it.
