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!

  21. 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!

    ReplyDelete
  22. 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.

    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.

  70. 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.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I absolutely love the Koala Hand-Dyed Sock in Caramel ....mmmmm
