The MisFits, a fitting flick.

My KnitFlix Swap partner received the package I sent her, so I thought I'd share it with you, too.

Jennie from Texas told me that she liked Monroe and Gable, Westerns and sprawling epics, strawberry licorice and alpaca yarn.

So, what could be a better fit than The MisFits. (No, I am not talking about all my mis-gauged projects, although that, too, is rather fitting.) The Misfits is a John Houston Western epic with Monroe and Gables. It would be the last film for both Hollywood icons. I also chose a superfine Alpaca in a denim-color called Cowboy Blue - perfect for some cowboy boot-slippers, and since the movie is about wild horses from Nevada being captured to become dogfood, I packed up a number of appropriate treats: strawberry Cowtails, gold mine gum nuggets and chocolate coins, and candy that actually comes looking like dogfood in a dogfood bowl. (Get out!!)

Keep your eye on CraftLilly's blog for her posting of the winner of the KnitFlix contest. She's also asked me to help judge the other entries and I'm contributing a GKT Kit for the winner. These swaps really are a lot of fun.
