Oh there's so much lovely over there! The Planet and Midnight roving; the Sargasso, Mermaid, Malachite, and Sapphire tops; the Tidewater, Because, and Spice yarns...
Oh, and the Lucky is beautiful too!
Sensing a shopping trip coming on...
I love all Melissa's fiber....I've got a drawerful to prove it. "Contemplation" is absolutely gorgeous and her Travel Niddy Noddy is a must have...I couldn't live without mine :)
Her Mirkwood local wool roving is gorgeous!
love love LOVE the "grateful dyed" top, it's so beautiful and colorful! I'm a sucker for rainbow colored fiber and yarn!
i love all of the Local Wool Roving she has listed! Vineyard, Northern Lights, Pumpkin Spice, and Firecracker. Whoo, I wish I had a drop spindle!!
The local camel roving looks so soft and squooshy!
RT'ed!
I am desperately in love with the Gypsy Rose art yarn...
RTed @millarca!
I have the travel niddy noddy and LOVE it. It is nice that I can store it in such a small space! So many items in her shop right now are to dye for (HA!), but my absolute fav is the laurel tweed roving. It looks SOOO pretty!!! I bet it would make a great lacy hat or scarflet...

Love the Hobbit Handpainted Local Wool Roving 3 oz. Always love green, but this is a special woodsy feel roving!
I love this shop - there is so much I want here & it's all presented very nicely as well. My favorite item is the Travel Niddy Noddy with Bag and WPI gauge! How neat - I am adding this to my Christmas wish list!
I was going to say the Grateful Dyed roving, but I think really I love the Antique Shop top! It's such gorgeous colors!
Oh, the Copper Penny roving, hands down. I am a sucker for those colours. The Contemplation roving comes a close second, though. And I'm in awe of the depth of colour on the Malachite, too; I can't get my greens that saturated.
Twittered, too! @owldaughter
everything is gorgeous-love the cornfield self striping roving:)
I really like the Copper Penny and the Brocade and the Malacite and the Gypsy Rose...
Love the Whisper roving, myself.
They are all so beautiful!! But the handspun, hand painted are my favorite! Oh, and I love the midnight roving!
The LAUREL TWEED local wool/silk blend roving is just gorgeous!
I was just drooling over her shop yesterday. My pretty-near-randomly-picked-favorite (because I want it ALL) is Gypsy Rose.
1) Because I almost named my first daughter Gypsy.
2) Because it makes me feel comfortable with selling the occasional small, artsy skein.
3) Because it's so dadgum purty.
I absolutely adore the superwash 'whisper', so smooth.
This is pretty cool:
PLANET local wool and ecospun blend roving
Holy goodness! Everything is great :) I love the Sargasso Superwash and the Grateful Dyed Superwash.
The Fireside Handspun rocks!!!
It's always so difficult to choose one thing! I love Snow Cone handpainted organic wool top 3 oz. though, it's so cheery!
Vineyard, Midnight, and Olive Grove are my favorite colorways. There are so many gorgeous color combinations! Great work!
I really love the hurricane batts, especially the Geraldine, Felicity and Ellie!
The Laurel tweed. And I WANT the needle gauge!
I love the Vineyard roving. The colour really flows and it looks super soft for spinning. Beautiful.

ANTIQUE SHOP!!! I absolutely ADORE those colors together! I am so in love.
Ok so I totally fell in love with the wool top in the colorway of
CONTEMPLATION, so now its on its way to my house. Thanks for pointing it out.
Oh my... I don't think I've ever looked in your shop before.. if I had I would already have something of yours! lol...
I love EVERYTHING! Quite literally... I'd love to have every single thing in the shop! I'm gonna have to tell my friends/family about your shop and say "if you don't know what to get me for xmas... go there and pick anything!" lol

Wild Hare is one of my absolute favorite PhatFiber contributors! Right now I'm loving the Laurel Tweed and Beauty Tweed rovings, because I'm currently spinning up her Jasmine Tweed and it's so lovely.
I must be in a green mood, because the Sargasso and Malachite (and Lucky) are calling my name...
A few days ago it was the Antique Store colorway, but today I'm all about the green.
The Handpainted Superwash Merino Top ANTIQUE SHOP 4 oz., I love this colorway. The giveaway fiber is alos a favorite color combo.
I'm really liking the Contemplation and Summer of '69 wool top. I've been overdoing it on green love lately, so the blues and purples are catching my eye.

The Chocolate Cherry Sundae handspun looks yummy. And I need to order the drop spindle kit to try my hand at spinning. I need to put these on my llist to Santa!
Lava, Sunset, and Hobbit.....there are so many wonderful colorways!!!

The Grateful Dyed top! I love the name and the colors, not to mention I am a fan of the Grateful Dead. :D
I love all of the tweed roving. Beauty and Destiny would be especially gorgeous plyed together.

I just love all the colors in the HURRICANE batt GERALDINE. Would make such a colorful skein of yarn when spun.
And the Olive Grove Organic Wool Top; imagining what scarf pattern to use for it .....
I love the Travel Niddy Noddy! It's crazy, but her "Grateful Dyed" roving is really speaking to me. The "Laurel Tweed", "Antique Shop", "Bread and Jam" and "Land and Sea" are also very pretty. I love her stuff!
the green giveaway roving is so gorgeous. I also love the Deep Blue Sea Roving. wow.
Whoa... CONTEMPLATION gives me pause for thought (haha) and the saturated purple is just amazing!
I love the "Summer of 69" Not only was I alive, I went to the movie with my husband before we were married. I was still in high school. I love the purple hues. Just Gorgeous
Nochi
mermaid, wow that green is gorgeous!
To think that you'll know the name of the animal from whom you got the fleece--amazing.
Hey, I want one of those spinning wheels!
Oh, those Fleece on Earth angels are adorable!

I love the Garnet kettle dyed wool top.
I love the little bit of purple peeking out of the Sunset wool roving!
I apologize to everyone. I bought the last angel today. Perfect little something gift for my spinning bud. I love the Georgia peach color. The malachite is nice too.
The Sachet handspun superwash floats my boat.
I like the Monkey Project or Goodie Bag 9X12.
Yum scrum!! I love the GYPSY ROSE Handspun Art Yarn, the colours and textres are just delicious. :-) Kate
Ooo that Pumpkin Spice is so tasty... but the superwash rainbow "GRATEFUL DYED" is the absolute bomb!
Thanks so much for a chance to win!
I love the vivid colors of the snowcone and citrus tonic tops. They look as if they'd spin up dreamily, and could be used to create some eye-catching winter garb that will stand out in the mountains of snow we get up here.
Oooh, I love the colors in the "Local Wool Roving VINEYARD 3 oz."! What a great shop!
Difficult! But I keep coming back to the sampler of local coopworth roving - five different natural colors, and if you read the detailed description you will even find the names of the sheep that the wool came from!
OH MY GOODNESS What lovely fibre. If I had to choose one it would be cornfield ............. love those greens but then there is the little Niddy Noddy. Lovely site Thanks for the link.
My choice is the beautiful Antique Shop SW Merino Top. I love the combination of colors.
Oh, Swamp Monster ROCKS!
I like the "Firecracker" roving.
The Antique Shop batt is the winner for me - gorgeous!

I love the Handpainted Superwash Merino Top ANTIQUE SHOP 4 oz., just gorgeous!
