One of the moms from our home school group showed up yesterday with an imperial asston of yarn. Evidently a neighbor of hers is a recovering hoarder and was destashing a LOT of knitting stuff. The vast majority of it was grouped into projects, with all of the yarn, the buttons, and the pattern packaged together in a zippered plastic bag. There is an abundance of knitters in our group and we all pawed through it like slathering maniacs. I managed to score some pretty good stuff:
The patterns for which all of this was intended just weren’t to my taste and/or were somewhat out-dated, so I let those go to the universe and will see what trouble fun I can get into on Ravelry. I’m already thinking the Louisa Harding stuff would make a really pretty shawl.

Awesome SCORE!
I’m thinking I might need to come over and take some of that off your hands :)
Holy cow! Look at all that!
Great score! I love all the mission falls!
Like you needed more yarn! LOL dude, you’re gonna need a whole ‘nother closet for all your yarn.
Wow! What fun!
Awesome! Looks like a great haul… can’t wait to see what you do with it!
YAY! The yarn goddess smiled on you big time!
