How sweet is was to open a package from Black Tie Fiber Arts this past weekend and see a little gift for me! Jessica- the spinning maven behind Black Tie Fiber Arts spun up a beautiful skein of corriedale called "Confetti"- I love it! I think it will become a little hat or purse.Jessica's shop is just full of beautiful handspun! I love her Avocado yarn!
She also makes the cutest stitch markers- both crochet and knit! This month in your boxes, look for both handspun and stitch marker samples!
Jessica sent in a beautiful skein of super-soft handspun called "Antique Roses". It's a super sqooshy and soft 90 yard skein that would be just perfect for a cowl or some next to skin project! We're giving this beauty away to a random commentor here on the blog! Just visit Black Tie Fiber Arts and find something you love. Write about it below and we'll draw for the giveaway on Friday! Be sure and plurk, tweet, and facebook because I'll count those as extra entries!
Thank you, Jessica for sending in beautiful samples and for treating me extra special! You made my day!
summer sky rules!

I am partial to "Sooper Squoosh Handspun Yarn- Summer Sky". It is a perfect match for the signature color of a very good friend of mine and gives off good vibes; they just seep through the keyboard. Plus, I am kind of jonesing for summer...:)
ReplyDeleteI love the Avocado yarn. Seagreen is pretty too.
ReplyDeleteI especially like the soft loop of the stitch markers. Snagless is always a real plus.
ReplyDeleteI love this color yarn :
ReplyDeleteSeagreen

ReplyDeleteDon't enter me in the drawing, I live 3 blocks away and rummage through her stash in person lol
ReplyDeleteShe asked me one day to think of a name for the blue/black yarn and the first thing that popped in my head was "Emo Tears" I was being silly, but I'm glad everyone finds the name as funny as I do!
The avocado or the mermaid hair, definitely.
ReplyDeleteI love love love the cherry sisters handspun yarn. I bet it's super soft
ReplyDeleteSea green is beautiful, but I love the name Mermaid Hair!

ReplyDeleteLoving the Cherry Sisters...wanting some...scrolling through my queue.
ReplyDeleteLove the Sooper Squoosh yarn in Summer Sky :)
ReplyDeleteI love the colors in the Cherry Sisters handspun and am cracking up at the name "Emo Tears".
ReplyDeleteThe Cherry Sisters Handspun Yarn is really pretty - and i normally don't go for orange!
ReplyDeleteI like the warrior yarn - great color combo.
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous stitch markers. I'm in love with #6,#7,#10 & #11. They're a Celtic theme & made so beautifully. They're more art than st. markers. And Jessie, I'm loving your Confetti yarn, so knit fast before I can hop a plane & snatch it from you :-)
ReplyDeleteOh the Warrior EasyCare Handspun for sure.
ReplyDeleteI want cherry sisters yarn!
