Twisted Fiber and *giveaway*




A long overdue kudos! Brook from Twisted Fiber Yarn has been participating for several months in the box now, and we're giving away a gorgeous silk hankie!
My photos really don't do it justice, it's beautiful and watery and reminds me very much of our upcoming "Oceanic" theme!
Visit Brook's website and you'll find all sorts of goodies and tools! Did you know she stocks those adorable Hiya 9" circular needles? I'm really wanting to get some for sock knitting this summer!
Brook's website is very organized and you can find just about anything you want- including her delicious hand dyed yarn and fiber. I can also vouch that Brook's customer service is impeccable!
Please hop on over to Twisted Fiber Yarn and find something you'd like to write about in the comments section below here. We'll draw for this beautiful silk hankie and a few more giveaways on Monday! Remember twittering, facebooking, ravelating, plurking and blogging will get you extra entries!
Thank you so much, Brook for sending in your beautiful creations to the box and for offering all those essential tools in one place! You rock and we love you!

    Drum carders! But that is firmly a "wish", sadly...

    She has some gorgeous fiber, too!

    The Hand Carded Batt - Storm certainly is aptly named. It reminds me of oil paintings of ships tossed on stormy seas.
