Sometimes, a sample will come in here and it makes my heart flutter and I get all jittery and I practically run to the computer and order more. That is what happened when the Spincerely Yours samples arrived this month!
Tamara sent in several little packets of her "Caireen" colorway and it literally made me stutter... sss sss soft! I will admit, as a novice spinner, I am a little intimidated by the tencel but I'm sure I'll get over that quickly when my package arrives!
I seriously want to paint my studio in "Caireen". It's all the earthy greens
rolled into one soft and shiny place. Speaking of soft and shiny places, Spincerely Yours is an absolute treat for the eyes! Tamara has put together blending packages- colors that look amazing next to each other so novice spinners like myself can experiment with plying and blending techniques without freaking out that it will look like throw up when finished.
I really can't tell you how excited I am about Tamara's shop. As if I don't stalk my postie enough, I've got added incentive in the next couple of days!
Tamara is so awesome, she sent in a 4oz package of "Caireen" for you to enjoy! Just visit Spincerely Yours, find something you like and comment about it below here! Leave a way for me to find you as we'll be drawing sometime late tonight! Tweeting and Plurking and other social networking avenues will net you second entries! Help get the word out about this wonderful "Phattie"!

OMG your colors are awesome! I think today my fave color is Sara's Window which is making me think of yummy fruit salad and yogurt for breakfast hehe
you don't happen plan on having 1 and 2oz rovings do you? It would take me ages to get through 4oz lol
i was lucky enough to trade some fiber with tamara when i first started spinning..it was awesome stuff!
I love the Superwash BFL Roving - Emerald City.. so nice!
I'm with Jags - Sara's Window - yummy, delicious colors - makes me hungry for breakfast!

Thank yoU!

Oooh... I have to say, I am too intimidated by tencel to pick anything with it in it...
The thing I love most in her shop (Corrie Cross in Ariarhod) looks to have sold earlier this morning...
My next favorite would have to be the SW BFL in Emerald City.
The bicolor packs are a great idea! I really like Just Lime/Aphrodite. I also really like the Lemon with a Twist of Lime, especially since it will shine from the Tencel. Beautiful!
I desperately, desperately want her Sarah's Window yarn. The last time I got some Spincerly, I loved it, but I wasn't a good enough spinner to do it justice. This time though... I know exactly what I'd do it with.
oh, and it's jecrowley at ravelry or just follow me to my blog.
I adore the Sara's Window colors. I need to learn to spin for this stuff.
Are you serious? There is no WAY I am going to her shop after seeing that amazing roving in your pictures! I wouldn't trust myself not to BUY anything, I am on a strict no spending rule! :) The Caireen is outstanding, and for me to get excited about GREEN is pretty darn rare. Not to mention the fact that it's Tencel... *sigh*
Oh my, that is gorgeous! I'd love to be entered in the drawing!! :D
Wow, Jessie you're really tugging at my purse now. :) That Caireen is quite possibly the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!
I also love the BFL in Emerald City & Coralbells and the bicolor packs in Spring Pear/Orchid and Just Lime/Turquoise.
I tell you what - some serious spending is probably about to happen. Too bad Caireen isn't up in the shop (I guess I just have to cross my fingers and see if I can win it).

love love love the colorways of this artist! Enchantress is lovely! (but the above fibers give me the warm fuzzies as well)
OMG! I just so love all the bicolor packs! I'm so happy that I got the new wheel but now I have to go spin, spin, spin until I get the 'practice' fiber out of the way so I can go buy some more 'real' fiber to spin!!!
What does everyone make with the small amounts of handspun?
I'm torn between the Butterscotch and the Lemon with a Twist of Lime...they're all so scrumptious, really.
Just about any Merino-Tencel, but especially the Aqua Velvet / Aphrodite! Yum!
EVERYTHING in her shop is gorgeous! I especially love the "Coralbells" SW BFL roving.
I like almost everything in her shop, but I especially love the Superwash Merino Roving - Rumble.
Love, love, love! Her colors are SO pretty! I think my favorite, though, is 'Butterscotch Sky'. :)
Wow, you are having a lot of giveaways! :] I love the just lime roving!
The orchid and aqua look just like cotton candy! Yummy!
To the twitter! (hallacemalice)

Wow. So pretty. I love the Sarah's Window colorway. That merino/tencel looks just yummy!
I'm very partial to Emerald City. It is so pretty and surprising that I'm drawn to the greens. This is new to me.
It is all gorgeous and I absolutely love butterscotch.
becky@beckyspapercreations.com
These colors are amazing!
Oh wow, I love the Just Lime and Aphrodite. In fact, I love it so much, I just bought it. Oops!
I absolutely love the Caireen sample you have up there, but in the shop, the Superwash BFL Roving - Emerald City has my eye. I LOVE green, and I'm desperate to see if I can get in on the next Phat Fiber box now.

Love all the colors - but especially the superwash merino/tencel Sarah's Window roving!
I'm a novice spinner myself, just bought my first wheel, but spinning is already addicting! I love the Superwash Merino/Tencel Roving, Bicolor Pack - Just Lime/Aphrodite!
I think these colors are my favorite: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=22210257. It looks like a rainbow. Very pretty. I love all this stuff and am happy to have learned of a new vendor. Thanks!
Superwash Merino and Bamboo Hand Dyed Yarn in Enchantress is to die for! I love the combo of green and purple!
So hard to choose but I think the Bicolor Pack - Turquoise/Lemon with a Twist of Lime is my favorite. :) I agree that visiting her shop is dangerous...
Oooh, I've been really slacking off in the fiber realm lately but the Sarah's Window colorway is making my mouth water. I feel inspired!
may at illiane dot com :)
I love Emerald City, the colors are beautiful and in my favorite fiber. But the Bi-color packs are amazing as well. Aqua Velvet and Aphrodite is my favorite of those.
I love your dye jobs.

Beautiful roving and yarn in the Spincerely etsy store. My favorite yarn is the "Superwash Merino and Bamboo Hand Dyed Yarn in Enchantress". And it's etsy sellers like Spincerely that make me think I really need to take up spinning!
The Spring Pear/Orchid combo, or the Sarah's widow both look wonderful
I am a huge fan of the color chartreusse and its varying hues! Good stuff!

Butterscotch Sky seems dreamy. But so do the samples she sent in they see like you would want to put them up on your walls.
wow, it's all gorgeous! I'd go for the "Sarah's Window" first though..i love spinning tencel! :) girlwithasword at yahoo dot com
Oooh, oooh, I love it!! Since I don't spin, I would most like to get the Hand Dyed Bamboo in Enchantress!!! That is gorgeous!! But if I did spin, that bicolor pack in Spring Pear/Orchid looks delish!

Holy Cow, Enchantress yarn. Come to mama!!
All I can say is OMG I want it all. I love the Butterscotch Sky best but I also like Sara's window and Rumble. those are truly beautiful colors.
Off to Tweet and post on Facebook.
I am on a real green kick lately (someone is tired of winter!!), so the Emerald City colorway really speaks to me!
I love the Enchantress yarn. It reminds me of a Monet painting. :-)

I'm digging the superwash BFL roving in Rumble. It's not easy to find superwash BFL...
Sarah's window and Aphrodite are really speaking to me....bad to enable me like this....

The Enchantress yarn is lovely!

I like the Superwash Merino and Bamboo Hand Dyed Yarn in Enchantress. Magical!
Chrissy at knittodayAThotmailDOTcom
Oh my, they are all so pretty!! I really like the combination of the Enchantress colors.
Oh my, they are all beautiful! If I had to only pick one I guess I would like the lemon with a twist of lime. Thanks so much, and I will go twitter this too!
Oh my!!! I'm not a green sort of girl, but that color!!! So now I am off to her shop to see whatelse is in store!!
That coralbells roving is calling my name like a siren!! Please somebody snatch it up so I am no longer tempted. I'm no suppoesd to spend any more money (other than the box) till next month!
Yummy stuff! My favourite is the Just Lime/Aphrodite bi-colour one, lovely and bright!
WOW! It's all beautiful!! I think the Superwash Merino/Tencel Roving, Bicolor Pack - Spring Pear/Orchid is my favorite though. :)

I am in love with Sarah's Window! Such gorgeous colors! It makes me feel like summer :)
http://www.aidynelymama.blogspot.com
Yum! Those colors are awesome. I also really like the Sarah's Window colorway in your etsy show. It riminds me of a summer fruit basket...pear green and raspberry reds. I want to eat it!

The Superwash Merino and Bamboo Hand Dyed Yarn in Enchantress is my favorite. I love the names she uses for her various color combos.
Fabulous colors! I love the two-color roving packs... it really opens up the possibilities for creativity. I love the Just Lime and Teal combo!
Sarah's Window is a gorgeous blend of colors! What a lovely yarn that will be when it's spun! All of the color combinations are perfect for spring,too!:)
I am HookedonKnitting on Ravelry, BTW...
I really love the Sarah's Window colorway in the roving, it looks so pretty. I have been adding the contests to my blog. Cheers.
I really like the Lemon with a Twist of Lime roving! Very pretty. infinitespirals at gmail
I heart the Sara's window. I hope to be able to spin better someday.

I almost don't want to say what I like the best because I don't want someone else to go buy it before I can decide. :)
I'm going to take the chance and say that the superwash and tencel in Sara's Window and the merino/bamboo yarn in enchantress are my favorites.
I've been sitting here drooling over "Spring Pear/Orchid," "Orchid/Aqua Velvet," and "Aqua Velvet/Aphrodite." The colors just lift my spirits while we're still here deep in snow and 9 degrees. Thank you for the bright joy you've created.

Sarah's Window for me please. While it doesn't make me think of breakfast........the colors are so relaxing. A Spring Morning........trees and flowers budding. Hummingbirds returning and dew hanging in the air.....
LOVE all the colors, but Just Lime/Turqouise Bicolor pack roving is catching my eye! LOVE IT!!
I love her beautiful spring colors!
Ooh, that spring pear and orchid mix roving needs to come live with meeeee! I'm knitonmycat on Ravelry.
I will take one of everything please! I especially love the Merino/Tencel roving in "Just lime/turquoise"
i love the lemon with a dash of lime - looks like a margarita!!
I absolutely adore the Caireen! The green's are so beautiful!

The rule for this contest was to find one thing and comment on it from Spincerely Yours, well there is no way I could find just one. That is some beautiful and bright roving! Delicious!
So many wonderful choices, I had to play eeny meeny to pick just one. It's Butterscotch Sky.
Take me to the Emerald City! I'd throw water on a dozen wicked witches for that.
Tamara's colors are great but my favorite has to be her Superwash Merino/Tencel Roving, Bicolor Pack in Just Lime and Turquoise. Those two colors together are absolutely outstanding and just knock my socks off!
Theleia is a colorway I especially like- the purple and green are just right for spring.
I think I might love the Champagne SW Merino/Tencel blend the most. Of course the SW BFL Coralbells is another beauty.
Caireen is just gorgeous and I love love love Emerald City!
Heather
Ridiculously delicious shop! I love the soft tones in Mini-Batt for Spinning - Theleia, I could definitely make use of a few hundred of those! HAHA!

She has really beautifull roving, my favorite is the "Superwash Merino/Tencel Roving, Bicolor Pack - Spring Pear/Orchid": I've never tried spinning superwash yet and it's totally on my list, and those colors are fantastic !
