If wishes were balls, then....
I meant balls of yarn of course, what were you thinking!? ;)
If wishes were balls of yarn, then I would fill up my room with yarn. My birthday wish for loads of yarn has come partly true. But with crochet thread and not yarn.
I had ordered for some size 20 crochet thread by mail order and it has just arrived. Here is a look at some of the lovely shades.

Since good quality crochet supplies are not available in Ahmedabad, this is my way out. It does mean that I have to stock quite of lot of yarn or thread, but the cost of going to the business district of the city to buy yarn costs me three times as much.
I can't wait to start working with this thread. But before that I will have to get new glasses as working with thread is somewhat tedious, especially after getting used to working with yarn.
I am planning on a few doilies with flowers or butterflies. And then some lovely bookmarks.
So, what have you been up to? I hope you have some rocking plans for the weekend. This weekend we will be traveling and I may not have access to the internet. But I will find a way to keep in touch.
Have a lovely weekend. Take care. Cheerio.

I totally agree with the thread crochet aspect. Having done a few myself i start off with lotsa josh but it becomes very strenous on the hand n eyes after a while. Good luck with the lovely colors :)
