Estate Sale Find

I love estate sales.  Last weekend, I found 15 wonderful vintage knitting pattern books, a big bag of circular needles and accessories and a HUGE bag of georgous yarn (most of it mohair), all for $10.00.  While estate sales make me a little sad because I know someone has passed on, I like to think that they would be happy to know that another stitcher is thrilled to have part of their stash and will put it to good use.  At this same sale, I also purchased two completed needlepoints.  I plan to turn them into pillows.  This woman was seriously talented.  I would have loved to see more of her work.
