*Explanation about how I ply a single on to itself using center pull ball
using northstaralpacas swirl roving
* Why I'm sitting in front of a wood pile- if "Every man looks at his woodpile with a sort of affection" (Thoreau) Then, they should also look at their handspun pile with the same affection, right?
I want everything in the shop, especially Mermaid's Song.
ReplyDeleteHideaway is gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteI like the River Bed batt. I'm really curious how those dark patches would spin up.
ReplyDeleteLove the Macaw, wish I had gotten a sample in my april box!

Ooo, Mermaid's Song is my favorite as well. Twittered that at southern_mystic.
ReplyDeleteOh, my favorites from Beesy Bee are the ones I bought! I got Duende and Self Portrait a while back. Right now in the shop I LOVE the Marble Funtastic Batt!
ReplyDeleteJess
I really like the earthy colors of the Rocks and Tides Alpaca braid. Fits me to a tee.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the Hunca Munca Roving. I love my blues!
ReplyDeleteJoining the crowd that loves the Abalone roving.
ReplyDeleteLove the S p l i t P e a - 4.1 oz - Superfine Merino.
ReplyDeleteI love the Art Nouveau Polwarth fiber!
ReplyDeleteI'm really drawn to the Mossy Lake roving as well. So lovely!
ReplyDeleteThe colors just keep grabbing me! Content is so summery, and Abalone is pretty much my favorite color combination, but I think Macaw might be my very favorite (at the moment). It's just so fabulously bright and wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI really like the Rocks and Tides alpaca :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is one of my favorite shops of all time! Mermaid song and Macaw are some of my faves.

I pretty much love everything in the shop, especially Riverbed, Painted Lady, Truffle, and that Mystery meriboo blend! It's all so pretty!
ReplyDeleteS t o r m y M o n d a y - 4.1 oz - Wensleydale is a perfect name for this colorway. It reminds me of stormy day at the beach.
ReplyDeleteOh, forgot to mention that I posted about the giveaway on facebook, too :)
ReplyDeleteI love the names. Parrot is a great name for that particular colourway. But I think it's the hand-dyed Teeswateer that steals the show.
ReplyDeleteHazel (KniLa on Ravelry)
I love everything! All the names are great, too. I think, for today, I will choose the Truffle Superfine Merino.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Abolone Blue Face Leicester. The colors are my favorite. My next choice wold be the Macaw colorway. Beautifully bright!
ReplyDeleteThat HuncaMunca is awesome. I'm a new spinner, and I'd love to try something other than the wool that I've got. Plus? It's dyed in <a href="http://www.cscc.edu</a>my school colors</a>, which is a HUGE achievement when you're living in Columbus and not going to OSU!
ReplyDeleteIm in love with
ReplyDeleteB e t a - 4.3 oz - Corridale Wool Top
and H o t - 3.6 oz - Superfine Merino Combed Top 19 micron, with Hot being my favourite, the colour combo that you did for it is perfect and you very rarely find people adding a splash of pink to these colourways!!

The beta and split pea colorways just make me smile. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the parrot colorway!
ReplyDeleteLOVE Stormy Monday on Wensleydale! There simply aren't enough red/purple combos in the world :)
ReplyDeleteJust this week I bought Confetti and Grounded and they arrived almost before I could blink. Gorgeous stuff! Cochineal and Mermaid's Song are calling to me now.
ReplyDeleteThe Mermaids Song is just so beautiful, would love to catch that mermaid!!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting colorways and names, my favorite is the Stormy Monday Wensleydale fiber. Very gorgeous!
