Are any of you going to Stitches West? Well, if you are, be sure and find Wabi Sabi Yarns at booth 643. Wabi Sabi will be sharing a booth with Poppy Flower Fibers because they are both the fruits of the same indie dyer!

Lisa, the dye maven behind Wabi Sabi yarns has sent in a special giveaway called "Iris Patch". This colorway is available in her Etsy shop and you might want to bookmark www.wabisabiyarns.com as it will be launching very soon!
We're giving away this skein of Tallulah sock yarn to a lucky commentor! Just visit Wabi Sabi Yarns and find something you like, write about it in the comments section below, and we'll draw for a winner Sunday. Remember to twitter and facebook about this for extra entries!

LOVE! I could always use some sock yarn
I loved the Cashmere in the Koala, loved the silk in the bliss, but I kept being drawn back to the Tallulah in the Embers colorway. Wow. just wow!
I love Wabi Sabi Yarns! I've ordered a few skeins recently. The Koala base is very yummy. I love it in Caramel. :) I can't wait to try the Bliss worsted as well.

& I posted it to my fb status too :)
The giveaway color, Iris Pathc, is just stunning, I also love the Embers and Caramel.
I would have to say the Iris Patch is my fav. I've been knitting with some of Wabi Sabi's yarn samples recently...a real joy!
I LOVE EMBERS!!!
I've already bought several skeins of Tallulah from Wabi Sabi yarns because her colorways are just so luscious and unusual. My latest favorite is Aurora Borealis but she does absolutely the best job of dyeing multi-colors and semi-solids.
Iris Patch is beautiful!

OOH - blackberry superwash worsted!
The Blackberry worsted is so intensely beautiful. RTed @millarca
Iris Patch and Lavender Mist are my favorite sock yarns!
I love so many:
Koala Hand-Dyed Sock - Lavender Mist
Sugar Plum
Iris Patch
Such pretty colors! I love this one - Classic Hand-Dyed Worsted - Blackberry. Wow!
I love the Aurora Borealis in the Tallulah Sock. Another of those yarns I watched too long, and it got away.
The blackberry (http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=39104826) is grrrrrreat! :)
Yikes! I really want to win this one. It is gorgeous.
I think that the Iris Patch is my favorite colorway.
Blogged about the contest at

A really really tough choice. I love them all. Maybe a slight preference for Bliss Hand-Dyed Worsted - Teal merino silk, but they are all fab.
Since purple is my first name, not my middle name, I'll have to go with my two favorites: Iris Patch and Sugar Plum
The colors are all so vibrant - Koala Hand-Dyed Sock - Merlot merino/cashmere/nylon is especially lovely
I just want them all. Every one is gorgeous. A favorite? Just one? Lavender Mist merino/cashmere/nylon
OMG i want this so bad! I got one of her samples and it is one of the nicest sock yarns I've ever seen and the colors are deeply saturates and gorgeous
I think my fave is Tallulah Hand-Dyed Sock - Embers, it looks like yummy yummy caramel and chocolate turtles
Beautiful! Tallulah Hand-Dyed Sock - Iris Patch is absolutely gorgeous!
The Iris Patch is my favorite if I look for colors that are wearable for me. If I widen my perspective and simply look for beautiful items, I'm drawn towards Goldilocks and Embers.
I love this Koala Hand-Dyed Sock - Lavender Mist merino/cashmere/nylon!

Being eyeing for some time Tallulah Hand-Dyed Sock - Goldilocks
I loved her colorways, but am in love with this Tallulah Iris Patch. You might say it is love at first sight.
I like the Bliss Handdyed worsted in Teal Merino Silk.

I like the Merlot merino/cashmere/nylon sock yarn.
The colors are amazing. My favorites are the teal and veridian.
I can't decide between the lavender mist (merino & cashmere yumm) or the teal worsted (merino and silk yumm too).
I LOVE the teal merino silk!! just lovely! :D

I love the color of Sugar Plum in the Bliss Hand Dyed Worsted weight in merino/silk.
OMG- I just spend 2 hours in my LYS yesterday looking for the perfect yarn for a project - couldn't find it - and there it is in the WabiSabi shop: SugarPlum merino silk worsted.
Couldn't resist - just bought the SugarPlum!
I love the Embers colorway!
I've had my eye on these yarns since before she had even officially opened! I love her colors. My favorite so far has been the Turquoise she put up awhile back, and I'd love it in the Koala. I'm such a pushover for cashmere!
Veridian is just lovely! I like all the yarns, but the greens are my favorites.
I forgot to praise the giveaway yarn!We live on 5 acres of an iris nursery. Iris patch is just beautiful.
Tallulah Hand-Dyed Sock - Embers
IS TO DIE FOR!!!!
The Sugar Plum Bliss (merino/silk) looks quite heavenly!
I've used Poppy Flower Fibers, and love Lisa's work. Mountain sage and Merlot are my faves of what I saw in the shop just now. Lovely!
Beautiful colors and the bases seem to be very luxurious as well. I really love Embers and Goldilocks!
the teal is my favorite, hands down. it looks so soft!
I'm drinking in the Peach Fizz worsted (pun intended)!
I really like the "Embers" and "Caramel" colorways! The giveaway skein is absolutely lovely too.
The Koala Hand-Dyed Sock - Merlot merino/cashmere/nylon is gorgeous.

All of the yarns look so beautiful. I think the one I'm most attracted to is the Bliss worsted in the color Sugar Plum. The color is so rich and beautiful!
Love these colors! The merlot is really rich. The Goldilocks was pretty, but the purples are really nice.
Oh my goodness! I LOVE everything in this shop. The colors are so rich & saturated - exactly how I like them. My favorite item in the shop right now is the worsted sugar plum merino silk - wow!
Love the Bliss Hand-Dyed Worsted - Teal merino silk - just gorgeous!
Thanks,

I just went back to look. This might be the prettiest yarns I've ever seen. Seriously need some of the Iris Patch. Like seriously (hint to family - Valentine's is coming!)
*DROOL!* That's awesome! The Embers colorway is so subtle and gorgeous!

I also love the teal merino...just delightful@
I was in the shower and just realized that this is the 5th anniversary of my end of breast cancer treatment. Although I know that doesn't mean I'm out of the woods, it does mean that statistically-speaking, my chances of long-term survival just went up. Being a mathematician who does a lot of statistical analysis, I like that a lot!
So I decided that since statistics are going my way right now, it was worth a long-shot like this, especially for such beautiful yarn which is my absolute favorite color combo and one that I wear almost all the time.
The Iris Patch is definitely my favorite.
I absolutely love the Koala Hand-Dyed Sock in Caramel ....mmmmm
I love your Koala Hand-Dyed Sock - Merlot merino/cashmere/nylon it's such a deep gorgeous color.
Oh my goodness, everything is just so beautiful! I think if I had to pick one, I'd choose the teal merino silk though.
Such RICH colors! The Tallulah hand dyed sock in Embers is really pretty!
I love the Bliss Hand-Dyed Worsted - Teal merino silk

I think that the Tallulah Hand-Dyed Sock - Iris Patch is beautiful.
The "Koala Hand-Dyed Sock - Mountain Sage merino/cashmere/nylon" reminds me of grass and that reminds me of Summer which reminds me of warm weather....I'm going to choose that one as my favorite. :0)

I am in love with the Tallulah handyed Sock Embers. yummi:)

I've never knit socks before, but have always wanted to try. I'm just certain I could do it with the Wabi Sabi Yarns "Tallulah Hand-Dyed Sock yarn in Iris Patch". Of course, all the colors are beautiful! I'm going to have to bookmark this site for future purchases for sure!
I really like the koala in caramel and tallulah in iris patch.
I have a lavender period! The Koala is wonderful and i think I really need to try to knit my first socks;D
Koala - beautiful colour!!!
Mmm..! What gorgeous, yummy yarns! I particularly love Veridian and Bliss!
The Iris Patch sock is gorgeous, but so is the Aurora Borealis sock.
