When The Critter Ranch's samples came for the August box, I was completely floored! Sue had carefully replicated her Llama ribbons onto paper, cut each individual one out and attached them to perfectly dyed corresponding fiber. These samples were like little works of art!!
I feel fortunate that I was able to snag a couple of ounces of the beautiful wine and pink colored roving and I simply can not wait to spin it!!! Sue's Llama is very lofty and soft and makes for super warm yarn!
Tell us what you think of Sue's shop! What are your favorites? Leave your comments below and we will draw a winner of this beautiful "Orleans County Ribbon" Llama roving on Saturday! Remember, we would love it if you could tweet and facebook and blog and ravelate about this giveaway! By helping Sue out, we'll count those as extra entries! Just let us know you did it!
Sue, thank you so much for sharing these delightful samples with us!!! Not only were they super soft and yummy, the colors were amazing!!

I am dying to try the sampler packs! Lovely stuff.
coral reef batt is a pretty color. It would be fun to spin when the snow is flying to remind me of summer at the beach
I talked about using a sample of her work here: http://foxeddc.livejournal.com/637323.html
More! More! More!
The batts are lovely, I esp. like Midnight Sky, Forgetmenots, and Shades of Black and White.
I like the Big E and Orleans Country Fair rovings too.
I love the brightly colored locks but the Sunny Morning roving and the Big E roving are my favorites. Absolutely gorgeous!!
My favorite is Cherries Jubilee batt, it looks so soft and lofty. I love it!
She's got some really nice colors in that shop - Summer Melon, Sunny Morning, Tropical Morning, Con Fushia Says - and I love the little 6 pack sampler! How cute is that! I was lucky enough to get some of the llamma fair ribbon roving and it's just wonderful - so soft and squooshy!
I love the colours in the Summer Garden batt! My favourite thing about Sue's shop is that it seriously has something for everyone!

ooo, love the sangria punch, and summer garden!
My favorites are Orleans County Fair roving, Forgetmeknots batt, and Spring Flowers batt. Lovely blending!
I had decided that I was only going to enter giveaways for yarn rather than fiber. I don't need to take on any other craft activities, but then I saw this and it is so beautiful - I need it!
My fav is Curly Sue.

Hand Spun...summer Impatients is just beautiful!

I'm not usually so blatantly patriotic, but I found myself very attarcted to the "American Tie" roving. It looks like it would be so fun to spin!
I really like the orleans county fair color! And the sunny morning. And Muddy Roses.
Ooh, I'm particularly enamored with "Got Milk?" with it's black & white fiber. It reminds me of oreos & milk

Great colors on dyed Border Leicester locks. I can't decide which colorway is my favorite!
The Orleans County Ribbon is so vibrant and the Midnight Sky is to dye for. Thank you for the inspiration!
The Shades of Black and White batt looks so good I would rather sleep on it than spin it. And Cherries Jubilee is tempting and tasty.
