Dani is part of the Phat Fiber Posse! Yes, Phat Fiber has a posse. (Sorry, I had to find a way to incorporate Shephard Fairey with Phat Fiber in the same blogpost because I'm a real nerd. ) She submits samples religiously and this month, we're giving away a full skein of her sock yarn called "Field of Daisies". It was so funny when I received her February box and this was in there, because I had almost bought this yarn a few different times! Dani has a new awesome sock club called "Rock Your Socks Off". She chooses a band and creates really awesome colorways based on their music. What is also really very awesome about this club is you can purchase on a month-to-month basis and she lets us know which band she's doing next. Read Dani's blog to find out who she's doing for April.
I'm so excited Dani has taken up spinning! She's been listing some really nummy handspun and roving lately!
I'm very proud to be working with Dani and creating custom yarns for the Phat Shop- she's really easy to work with- I tell her my ideas and she makes them happen!
On to the giveaway! Please visit Dani's shop and find something you like. Post about it below here and we'll be drawing a name late Friday. Be sure and tweet, plurk, blog, etc about this contest for extra entries! Remember, I need to find you if you win, so throw me a bone and leave your rav id or other way of getting in contact with you ;)
Thank you so much Dani! You Rock.

Oooh, the Sanoran Sunset roving is sooooo pretty! I love all her colors but that one is really calling my name.
Why do I have to choose one????? I love the striped felted tote, the sunshine yarn and the braided mug wrap.

Evertyhing it gorgeous. I love the wild rock handspun.

the seascape lace is dreamy...
I don't need to be entered in the drawing, unfortunately yarn in general is so wasted on me, but I wanted to mention that in the short time that I've known Dani she has come so far as she's spreading her wings into different areas of the fiber business and I'm immensely proud of her, especially reading all the comments that are being left for her handspun. You go, girl!
Her Red Rock Sunset BFL handspun screamed at me as soon as I saw it. It is gorgeous!!!!

I have been ogling the Rock Your Socks Off club for quite some time! But as far as a single yarn, I really love the Deep Purple Merino Sock yarn - very pretty.

ooo...i love the Wild Violets handspun yarn. the colors are stuning, and would look even better on my feet as socks.
Everything is just lovely as everyone above has said. The seascape lace is the one that calls to me, which could be partly because I'm always looking for a way to combine my two loves: knitting and the ocean. Blog and tweet @onesweettart
The Sunrise Handdyed Worsted is beautiful. It's so bright and sunny, just like a sunrise!
wendymc @ ravelry
Oh, the al-Chadir is wonderful! and the story behind it is beautiful, too. I make items for Afghanistan and this would be perfect for mittens.

I love the Wild Violet and Red Rock Sunset handspun! The al-Chadir sock yarn is beautiful, and my son would love it.
Absolutely LOVE the deep purple merino! :) nursepickle on Rav
I'm in love with the Sonoran Sunset Roving . . . as soon as I get some practice spinning, I'm going to spend a bunch of money on rovings to spin . . . .
I love the Sunrise and Sunshine hand-dyed wools, but that Field of Daisies skein is gorgeous! The blue-green roving in the third photo on the blog is really pretty too. That would be a great sample to get!
Love it! I'm dying for some of that Sunrise and Sunset, and Kermit is just adorable! I don't know why I never thought of knitting a mug wrap before, but I will now! Also, man I would LOVE to join the Rock Your Socks Off club, but I'm pretty sure my hubby would kill me...!

Definitely the Red Rock Sunset BFL handspun for me. I want to learn how to do that technique.
Ooooooo, the Sonoran Sunset Merino Superwash Roving! So pretty, and so aptly named.

I love this color, and it does remind me of the sunsets when we lived in the Sonoran desert. They were gorgeous, as is the roving.

I saw the Wild Violet handspun first and fell in love with it. I made myself look at everything else (all gorgeous, btw) but am returning to my First Love. :)

i have been wanting to knit up these butterfly wings for my dramatic, dancing 9 yr old daughter. 'in love with lace' would be beautiful. i can see how the shades of pink would really give depth to the lacework. lovely. oh, to fly... peace, t.

The Sonoran Sunset roving is calling me like whoa.
Have twittered this (gonzopants)!
As so many others have said, the Wild Violets handspun yarn is my favorite thing in the shop. I've never been tempted by handspun before - it's gorgeous.

Ooh, the Sonoran Sunset roving, if only because my geeky brain read it as SonTAran Sunset...

Ah, the al-Chadir sock yarn, because it's green, and we all know how much I like green. Especially in March, when up here, there's no hint of green at all, except in the pine trees......

The seascape lace weight is beautiful! If I only had money it would definitely come home with me. I love the yarn base, the colors and especially the yardage :)

The Sonoran Sunset Merino Superwash Roving is really beautiful. I'm getting closer and closer to learning to spin, thanks to temptations like this!
Wow, the yarns look great. I love it, especially the yellow green bundle!!!
This is Beautiful! I love the colorway :)
I'm just another fan of the Sonoran Sunset. What a beautiful combination of colors.
I think my favorite is the alight superwash merino. I am tempted.
I'm going to go with Sonoran Sunset, although I could list many more. This lovely is beautiful.
That spring fever colorway is awesome! :]
The al-Chadir speaks to me. It's got a story and it's in greens! What more is there to love!

I love the Sonoran Sunset roving! I'm lucky enough to know how amazing her stuff is - I won a Rock Your Socks Off contest with a colorway suggestion (Johnny Cash black with streaks of June Carter's lipstick) and made some toasty mittens with my winnnings! :)
I just wanted to let you know that i posted about your giveaway on my blog:

The deep purple sock yarn is so amazing looking.
I'm also smitten with the al-Chadir sock yarn.

The Sunrise colorway is beautiful though I love the fact that you can custom order any colorway you want!
I think my favourite was Date with the Night.
But everything was gorgeous!
Bookmarked immediately.
The Wild Violets Handspun and the El-Chadir sock yarn (probably spelled that last one wrong, sorry)! What great stuff!

The Sunrise Hand Dyed Wool just pops with color...but all her yarns and rovings are beautiful!
I am "HookedonKnitting" on Ravelry...
Anasazi Women is a gently colored yarn, full of strength and beauty.
The Sonoran colors are so rich, I think that is my very favorite.
