January Colorswap! & Other Notes

I had a lovely box of fun things sent to me by Juli and it came this week. It was full of some wonderful goodies, both to knit up and to drink.

Inside, there were two kinds of coffee, some white chocolate cocoa, teas of all kinds, two bookmarks, and yarn! There was a skein of Dune in golds, purples and greens, a skein of a boucle yarn with a metallic thread wrapped around it, two yarns from Australia, one a ribbon with a sheen to it and the other a novelty type yarn with just about every color of the rainbow in it, also there was a ball of knit-cro-sheen in white with gold thread.

Thank you so much Juli!

I am looking for a ruffled shawl to make. We have the pattern for this one from Fiber Trends at the shop, and I can buy it at a discount, but it's not quite what I'm looking for, I think.

This one, though, is the one that set my heart on a ruffled shawl, and I can't find the pattern for sale on the website. I've just lost it. I saved the picture and thought I'd saved the url, but cannot find it anywhere. I'm going to try a couple more searches to see if it comes up. Otherwise, if anyone out there can identify it, I would like to buy it and make it.
