Achilles and Patwoman Prepare A Swap Package

What's better than getting a surprise holiday gift in the mail? Sending a surprise holiday gift in the mail! Duh!

So, for the first time, I am participating in a swap with one of the members of the Christmas Knitting group on Ravelry. (The idea for this group is, if you start knitting in January, you won't stress out about knitting Christmas gifts in November. You see how well that's working for me, right?)

Anyway, since I've never done a swap before, I decided to enlist some help. Of course, Achilles is nothing, if not helpful. He suggested right away that we needed a box to put everything in.

Patwoman: Hm. No, Achilles. I think this one is too big for our needs.

Achilles: Really? It looks like a good size to me.

Patwoman: Hey!

Achilles: See? Just right.

Patwoman: We need a different box.

Achilles: Hmph!

Achilles: This one's smaller.

Patwoman: Don't be a smartass. You know all that stuff is not going to fit in that little box.

Achilles: Whatever, Humom. How about this one?

Patwoman: Just right!

Achilles: Oh yeah! Everything fits nicely!

Achilles: M...E...R...R...Y...

Patwoman: I know how to spell it. But thanks for your help, Achilles. I probably could've done it without you, but it wouldn't have been nearly as much fun!
