Wonders Mohair and Giveaway!




Here at Phat Fiber, we see a lot of knitters, crocheters and spinners- where are all you felters?
I've got a few amazing giveaways here- several pounds of mohair locks for felting. They were harvested from an older female and are coarser than you would use for spinning, so Brice Wonders of Wonders Mohair has sent them in to be given to some lucky fiber artists who comment here!

Brice would like to know what you all think of his shop, please comment below and let us know what is your favorite of his dyed mohair locks! We'll draw for 3 winners next Friday! Be sure and use your plurk, facebook and twitter to let everyone know about this contest! We'll add extra entries for you, if you do.

Brice, thank you so much for sending in your dyed mohair for us to sample- it's lovely!

    Ooooh, I've ALWAYS wanted to try some needle felting. It looks like such a good way to get out some aggression. That Dark Party Mix is DREAMY. RTed @millarca!

    Oh I really, really want to win this one! I have several felting artists in this house!!! I love the colors of his locks - love the dark party mix, love the plum party mix, love the royal blue, the purple and the red. If I ever learn how to spin locks, I'm getting some of each and mixing them all up as the most gorgeous yarn ever. Meanwhile, I might have to order some for the girls to use in their needlefelting endeavors.

    i'm interested! i'm thinking it might be fun to try and spin them smoothly and see if the resulting yarn wouldn't work for warp :-)

    I like the plum party mix but my eye keeps coming back to the coral. Needle felting is on my to do list.

    most of what's on the site now is really, really dark... have y'all been shopping? I think you could do a really cool surrealist "sky" with the purple mix.

    The angora locks in Coral got my attention. I received some Wonders Mohair locks in Plum in my Phat Fiber box and I think they are the prettiest mohair locks I have ever had the pleasure of petting!

    I would love to felt with these. Each year, I felt some eggs at Spring, and these colors (especially the pink / red and blues) would work really well.
