Blue Moutain Handcrafts and *giveaway*
When I visit Blue Mountain Handcrafts, I really feel like I'm stepping into a bright, colorful, happy place- almost like I'm on a fantasy fiber vacation!
Beth stocks everything I love: beautiful handspun, colorful and interesting spinning fiber and perfectly constructed fabric bags! I love that Beth offers a spinning service! For those of you who may love a batt but don't spin!
Today we're giving away a beautiful "caddy sax" !! This bag will hold everything you need to take with you- and give you plenty of pockets for extra notions etc. Just visit Blue Mountain Handcrafts, find something you like, and post about it in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner tomorrow! Please be sure and take a look now! We'll count your tweets and facebook updates as extra entreis- just let us know you did it!
Beth, I am amazed at your work! Thank you for sharing with us!

Love the aqua stitch markers and all the bags are absolutely adorable.
love the plum wine and gold bag. what a neat idea!
It's a tie!
Good grief vs. put the lime in the coconut handspun...how do I choose?!
I absolutely cannot choose between the Ugly Stepsisters & Bikini Bottom handspuns. Fairy tales or Spongebob?!?!!? I think my head just exploded. RTed @millarca
I love the plum and moss caddy. Thanks for introducing me to a Virginia neighbor. I love to shop local when I can and am excited to uncover this hidden gem in my own backyard :)
I love the colors in the Toot Sweet A batts. They look like so much fun to spin!
PLUM AND MOSS handmade "Caddy Sax" drawstring bag is fabulous! I want it! Everything in the shop is wonderful though...

I loved the 'holey moley' fibre...looks gorgeous and so much fun to knit with.
Love this: VIOLET BEAUREGUARDE Spinning Batts 3oz Merino Firestar Sparkle Mohair
it will be coming to see me soon:)
Love the YESTERYEAR YELLOW No. 2 Glass and Cloisonne Crochet and Knitting Removeable Stitch Markers. This style is great for marking the starting side of a toe-up sock. I love the short hang - and they are hard to find.
The Toot Suite batts are just lovely!
All those bags are so cute! Among the spinning fibers, I quite like Love Potion no. 9.
the brown and lilac caddy sack is the one for me! although I have to say, I like all of those sacks, what a great bag! on facebook, too!
Ooooh, the Bare Trees and Blue Sky batts look gorgeous!
Handspun Sampler! Ahh, that would be the coolest hat or scarf....
The autumn orange bag is delightful, but the Good Grief yarn stole my heart. My mother-in-law is a HUGE Peanuts fan, and it made me think of her. (I like her, so that's a good thing.)
The drawstring bags caught my eye and are just the bag for my most recent knit or crochet projects. Love the idea, size and most especially the color-combos.
They are gorgeously GORGEOUS ! ! !
I think my favorite fiber is the MTN MEADOW Spinning Batts 4 oz Merino Firestar Columbian Curly Locks followed closely by ELDERBERRY FIZZ but I love the name of THREE LITTLE PIGS ON TOAST, just too funny! And I absolutely adore your new Vintage Moss bag!
I just adore the "Three Little Pigs on Toast" spinning batts. I had so much fun spinning up the Box sample of her batt that I'm sure these would be great as well.
And totally cute!
those bags are so cool!
I am in love with the Moss Caddy and the Orchid batt.
'Down by the Creek' handcombed roving would be my pick! I had a chance to spin with someof Beth's combed fiber before and it was luscious!
(Facebook, blog)
I love all these bags! I love the one I got from you so much, I may have to buy another 3 or 4 more... one for each of the projects I usually have going at once lol
I love love love the wild woman single ply!!!
My favorite- the caddy bags! Especially "For the Birds". I really need to get one of these.
Love the caddy bags! Would like to see some solids or something less floral. :)
I adore the project bags. I don't know how I could narrow it down to one though they are all so beautiful.
mtn meadow batts are such a pretty green!
Impressionism is beautiful.
I shop Beth's store often because I love her caddy sax! I really like the Plum & Moss Caddy Sax she has listed today! She also carries very neat spinning fiber! Thanks Beth.
I love a shop that is so full of goodies it comes down to eenie meenie minie mo - and the winner is
LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE Caddy Sax Drawstring Bag Knitting or Crochet Project Bag or Purse Medium
i love their banner!
and i love the foggy mtn trio yarn. :)
The Foggy Mountain Trio is lovely. I also like Dreaming in Technicolor, and her son Alex has a knack for colors in Alex's Pick.
What a great store! I'm drooling over the "VINTAGE MOSS Caddy Sax Drawstring Bag Sock Project Bag or Purse Small"!
I love BMH! Love the fiber and the knitting bags are so darned perfect for a project bag . They'd make great holiday giving gifts for all your crafty friends.
And the yarn, the one with the charlie brown theme, is just dying to become a pair of gauntlets!
Amazing Loved it all! Really like the Dream in Technicolor roving and Bee dpn case. Favorited this store, will def. be back!

My favorite is VINTAGE MOSS Caddy Sax Drawstring Bag

Beautiful store! So much yummy merchandise. I particularly like Charlie and the Golden Ticket..so pretty.
Oh my gosh ! The bags,the fiber, the yarn, the adorable stitch markers ! How can a girl just pick one favorite ?! I'll take one of everything, please.
The Dreaming in Technicolor BFL Combed Top would just be ridiculously fun to spin!
Love her bags and needle holders and handspun!
I like the Vintage Moss Caddy Sax Drawstring bag. It looks like it would be great for bringing a project along.

I like the handspun beachy keen. lots of texture!
Wow, thanks for introducing me to another great source of addiction (I think!)... I so love the Mossflower Spinning Batts... there is just enough there to make a fabulous yarn, then knit into some rockin' hand mitts for a birthday present for my niece, if I can let them go... the bags are also great. I'd love to have one. Cannot have enough knitting bags, these are great!
I liked the Autumn Splendor batts.
Three Little Pigs and Autumn Splendor are so pretty! I love all of the adorable bags as well! :)
The purling puppy stitch markers are cute!
I like the dreamcycle batt and the One purple shoe st markers.
Plurking too.
I love the Autumn Splendor batts!They are very pretty and vibrant.
I think the caddy sax drawsting bags are unique and amazing! My favorite one is the lime & blue - what a perfect fabric combo!
As usual - beautiful products. I don't spin but the Autumn Splendor Batts screamed October to me and the Think Pink handspun was just wonderful. Thanks again Phat Fiber!!
I have to say Three Little Pigs!
I love the BROWN AND LILAC Caddy Sax. Wow would I love to win this one.
Off to blog
The colors of BARE TREES AND BLUE SKY Spinning Batts are lovely. I am sure I am not influenced by the mention of "chocolate" in the description...I do realize it means the color.
I've blogged about it here:
http://elaine-knitting.blogspot.com/2008/08/blogiversary-contest.html
pick me, pick me
So many fabulous choices! HOLEY MOLEY rates a HOLEY MOLEY
Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had another one, she paid it for the lime
She put the lime in the coconut, she drank 'em both up
And I know why she did it, if it looked half as enticing as this yarn! Yeah, the PUT THE LIME IN THE COCONUT Self Striping Single Ply Handspun Wool Yarn just totally does it for me! Awesome yarn and great (funny!) title. Love it!
WILD WOMAN Corespun Art Yarn is soooo cool(Hot)
I have a birthday coming up in November. I'm going to hint for PURPLE ROSES Caddy Sax, unless of course I win this one.
I love all of the bags but especially the TEAL LEAVES Caddy Sax Drawstring Bag
I love the three little pigs on toast (although I have never before seen a pig on toast) batts.
I absolutely love the colors in "WHATEVER A Self Striping Single Ply Handspun Yarn 3.6 oz 238 yards". They are gorgeous!!
Ooooh, what a variety of neat stuff! I do like the Elderberry fizz spinning batts--nice color combo. Though having more bags to carry my spinning and knitting around in wouldn't be bad...despite what my husband says. None of the bags I have work with my longer spindles anyway, so maybe a spindle bag....
I was so very in love with her things I bought 2! an awesome circilar needle case and a sack! But this blue and Chocolate won is fabu as well!
I just love the PURPLE ROSES Caddy Sax.
All of the handspun yarns are fabulous. I want them all. Good grief or holy moley. What a choice. I love all the witty names.

My wife and I are both birders. I think we NEED FOR THE BIRDS Caddy Sax Drawstring Bag. We'll probably fight over it.
TEMPORARY INSANITY says it all. Or maybe TOOT SWEET Corespun Yarn. Your handspun yarns are just wonderful.
Love the circular needle case. Really cute in the travel size.
I love the Charlie Bucket and the Golden Ticket batts.
Choosing just one item: not.easy.
But I do love Bare trees and blue sky, so beautiful!
All of the caddy sax bags are great...but I really like the Rainbow Gems stitch markers
I love the Mountain Meadow batts. The bags are such a wonderful design.
Lizbert on Ravelry
I really liked the Rainbow Pack of hand
dyed fiber
I love the left over batts, a great idea for using up small leftovers, and they look like they will be fun to spin.
