Fleecemakers Fibers and Giveaway!
New to the box is Fleecemakers Fibers! This month, Liz sent in some really beautifully dyed Romney fiber in deep jewel tones. Now, I don't usually automatically think soft and Romney go together, but this stuff is pretty nice! Maybe it's all the tender loving care the Romney lambs get from Liz!
Fleecemakers Fibers has an abundant shop full of fiber for the tasting! I think I must have some of the "melon patch" Romney roving- the colors just look delightful! And the locks! How cute!
We're giving away this richly dyed Romney roving to a lucky commenter on the blog. Just visit Fleecemakers Fibers and find something you like, write about it in the comments section below, and we'll draw for a name later in the week. Be sure and twitter, facebook and ravelate about it for extra entries!
Thanks Liz, for sharing your beautiful fiber with us!

I love EVERYTHING, but....Autumn Spice Romney Roving Back by Request is gorgeous!
I love all the purple ones- mixed berries is super pretty-
The leaves and berries roving is really gorgeous, I'm sure it will produce an amazing yarn!
Her art batts are really nice. I also like the name Springs Promise-it's a pretty colorway. But I think I drifted towards Pumkin Raspberry Mocha roving.
Spring Bloom Cotswold Romney is so springy and I love it!
I love the colors in Harvest Time Navajo handspun 3 ply (105 yarns).
Maybe the Swirled Color Romney Roving Sampler Pack? Or the
Peach Sherbert Romney Cotswold Roving? Or pretty much any of the hand carded batts!
Harvest is a really pretty color.
Ooooh! I want all of her batts. Phantastic!

Spring's Promise Romney Finn Shetland Cross Wool and Kid Mohair Blend Roving Soft, although the batts are lovely!
Lovely shop! I really like the "Earthy Greens Superwash Bamboo Tencel Milk glitz Hand Carded Batts 2.8 ounces".
I especially like the batts and also the locks. But to be honest almost everything looks lovely.
I may have just found my own personal heaven! I do not know why but Romney is one of my all time favs. I just love the way it takes dye. I love to hand card it. It just spins so nice for me! *sigh* so to pick a fav. I love her hand dyed Romney. She has some that are in colors with bits of pumpkin orange, green, and some other bits of color thrown it. It is beautiful.
I like the Blues custom art bats.
The Spring Meadow roving looks like...spring! So very pretty.
This looks gorgeous: Spring's Promise Romney Finn Shetland Cross Wool and Kid Mohair Blend Roving Soft

Oooo, that purple coreless corespun art yarn is gorgeous! I wanna eat it ...

I really love the hand carded wool blend in the earthy red here (http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=38983238). It's so lovely.
It really puts me in mind of that thick red mud you find some places where the soil is rich clay. Like the varying shades of red the earth gets when it rains... as the soil runs down the hill, the colors change and layer, and the puddles froth a little at the edges, in lighter and sometimes surprising shades.
I really like the Romney Wool Fleece Dyed 3.2ounces in green hues!!!

I love the Purple Majesty fleece! It reminds me of the edges of clouds at the beginning and end of a good Arizona sunset. :)
Must have Romney fiber..(image the zombie voice and stagger). Seriously love the brillant color. Having never spun Romney I would love the try the Swirled Color Romney Roving Sampler. Very cool.
i love the hand dyed romney roving

Oh my all of it is so beautiful! But the Earthy Greens superwash bamboo, tencel and milk batt is to die for
I am loving the fibers she has. I like the dye romney in the red color, it looks like it would be fun to spin.
