Misty from Desired Haven Farm has done it again. If you've seen her gorgeous March samples, you'll know what I'm talking about. I didn't actually weigh them, but these seemed to be nearly 50g and some of the prettiest handspun I've ever seen.
Misty is a very active member of our group and we all look forward to hearing about her latest animal updates. This woman really pours her heart and soul into caring for her animals. Desired Haven's etsy shop directly funds purchasing feed and other expenses of her fiber farm.
Misty sent in an absolutely gorgeously huge hank of heavenly handspun! It has a slight shimmer to it with nubs of various greens and deep blues. I am reluctant to let it go! If you don't win it- it can be found here.
Please visit Desired Haven Farm's shop and find something you like, post about it below, and you will be entered to win on Tuesday! I will count your extra efforts (tweets, blogs, plurks, facebook) to help me get the word out about Misty's shop as second entries in the pool. Leave a way for me to find you too (rav id or twitter name?) in case you win.

I LOVE that giveaway skein! The Dragons Scales yarn in her shop has some of the prettiest greens ever too.
I love her stuff and the love that she shows for her animals. Had to go buy some Pebbles in the Stream. Angora & Finn/Dorset? It's got to be heavenly!
I love the Raspberry Twilight

As usual, I'm drooling over roving again. I really like the Jade Green Alpaca Wool Blend because it is green and delicious-looking.

Dragon Scales is beautiful! I love it!!!
Her bunnies are so cute! Her raspberry tilight yarn is wonderful!
Pebbles in the Stream...yumm!
I didn't even have to go to Misty's shop to look as I've been there so many times already. Ever since the first time I visited her shop, I've been in love with Ocean Dapples. I got some of her WasteNotWantNot2 in my first box. I spun it and am using it in a project right now. I want more, more, more, MORE....
Off to my blog to write more....
I love all of Misty's fiber but the Lavendar Alpaca is my favorite! :)

Oh, I have to say "Dragons Scales." The alpaca in all those gorgeous greens has been tempting me for a while now!
I'd pick Rasp Twilight handspun but the Dragon Scales is also very pretty.

The Raspberry Twilight is absolutely beautiful! It has one of my favorite color combinations of blue/purple/grey.
I'm lachatdelarue on Ravelry and Twitter :)
This is by far one of my favorite samples. The Waste-Not-Want Not is my favorite in the shop right now, but I also loved the brown sample I received in my box. Would definately purchase if there was more of that in the shop.
I love the dragon scales yarn!! Such wonderful greens!!

Dragon Scales has me on a flight of fantasy picturing what I'd make with it.
The greens in "Dragon Scales" are just luscious.
I've blogged at http://kitten-with-a-whiplash.blogspot.com/2009/03/warning-i-feel-chatty-today.html
OoooO I LOVE Dragons Scales. So pretty! This is also! Wowee!!
(kataish on Rav)
Well, having looked over the comments, I feel unoriginal. I too liked the Dragon Scales. Just that lush green... mmmmmmmmm
Plus, given that it is currently SNOWING (!!) outside, I think that makes the green a little extra appealing.

That Cherry Red Alpaca wool blend...thud. Such a gorgeous color. I just want to squish it.
