Last week, you saw me spinning a very pretty blue/green batt from Hampton Artistic Yarns. I thought I would share with you the final product. I was really happy with how it spun up. I was able to spin it fairly thin and chain ply it. I really enjoyed spinning the silk noils and loved all the sparkle!
I feel Deb is one of the greatest talents on Etsy today. Her color sense is amazing! I am a firm believer in using quality materials to create with, and H.A.Y's fiber is top notch!
We're giving away this beautiful 3 oz batt set called "Jumping in the leaf pile". Isn't it great?! Just visit Hampton Artistic Yarns, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below. Remember, we'll count those social networking pings like facebook, ravelry, twitter etc as extra entries-just let us know you did it!

The Faded Beauty soy silk is just exquisite.
Ooh, I want some H.A.Y. Treasure Balls!
I LOVE her Celestial batts, and I'm still kicking myself for not getting in on that Cirque SAL! :)

The Flannel Shirt merino has such a fun color combination
The Ferosh merino top really calls my name.
Tough decision between her unique Treasure Balls and the fiber sampler.
I like the Treasure Balls - I'm always a sucker for random color and such! This is like a grab bag but pre-drafted (perfection)!
RT'ed at KnitwithKT
This would be a good day for a 'Naked' Fiber Sampler Pack. Followed, perhaps, by some 'Golden Delicious' milk fiber? Yes, that would be just what I need!
I like the H.A.Y. treasure balls. What a great idea and oh, so pretty!
I am liking the "Celestial" bun batts. I think spun up they would look really cool.
And I totally agree with Jess (jessecreations) about not joining her SAL again! When am I going to learn? LOL.
Colorwise...love the 'Flannel Shirt' one.
Fiberwise....I haven't tried the Milk Protein or Corn Fiber, yet.
Big Phat HINT!!!
I fell in love with Enchantress. Such beautiful items.
I liked the "Flannel Shirt" colorway Merino Top.
Kettle Dyed Sock Yarn, 'Sunrise', Merino/Silk, 450 yds.

Ilove the Art Batt set Claude Monet.
I've been drooling like crazy over the Claude Monet art batt set. Beautiful stuff!
You always find the best shops! One of my fav items in this shop is the hand painted sock yarn, Love-in-idleness. Nature inspired colors. LOVE IT!
I was actually just looking at her shop the other day. =) I like the Celestial colorway; colors you might not normally think would go well together but they do.
The Merino Wool Top, 'Orchid', 4.0 oz. is a gorgeous colorway.
Oh man, where do I start?? The CELESTIAL fiber buns are divine, and I'll definitely be picking up some merino sampler packs at some point- those colors are so vibrant.
I really like the Golden Delicious milk fiber and the Ferosh hand painted merino. My fingers want to play!
Kristin
Treasure balls! ha ha, that's fun to say too!
I'm always a sucker for beautifully dyed merino top so I would choose Orchid as my favorite. So girly and pretty.
The "Ferosh" merino roving is soooo gorgoeus!!

I like the color combination of the milk fiber "Flannel Shirt"

I love "Ferosh" in Merino http://www.etsy.com/listing/45963297/merino-wool-top-hand-painted-ferosh-4-oz The pink/purple combo reminds me so much of my daughter!
Love how your yarn turned out!
There is such a variety of color in this shop. For sure, there is something for everyone. The Celestial Fiber Buns look fun to try. The Treasure Balls look so fun. I just have to give that a try. But, the Moody Blues Milk Fiber has sent me over the moon.
Such gorgeous colors in this shop. I pick is the Hand Painted Merino Wool Top in the Ferosh colorway. Just lovely!
I really like the Flannel Shirt colorway!
I want her "moody blues" batt. I actually want everything in her shop!

I Twittered about it too! So pretty
I really love the Hand dyed sock yarn, superwash merino, 'Love-In-Idleness', dye lot A, 225 yds.
All the H.A.Y. Treasure Balls, please!
I love her stuff (which my stash of handspun shows)! I love the Flannel Shirt dyed fibers and the Opulent yarn.
Wow, I love that Flannel Shirt colorway! It looks great in all those fibers: soy silk, milk, and especially merino. Woodstock is also lovely!
the Merino Top, 'Savannah', 4.0 oz. is gorgeous!
How to choose just one item? Deb's color sense is delightful!!! Faded Beauty really caught my eye because it resembles my poor sun-stroked roses right now.
Merino Top, 'Savannah', 4.0 oz. has me dreaming of lion prides,
Pansy explosion!! Awesome name and bright colors!
I'm really loving her Celestial batts.
I love the flannel shirt colorway in both the milk fiber and the merino wool!
I love the blend of colors in the Spinning Fiber Buns, Batt, 'CELESTIAL', 4.1 oz.
Your yarn came out lovely.
I would have to pick the art batt in Ferosh mostly because I am very curious to see how those bright bright colors would come out.
I like rainbow gone awry....

I love that there are all sorts of samplers - merino, firestar and more.
But what really caught my eye was the Faded Beauty soy - what perfect colors!
Merino Top, 'Savannah' is calling me!
'Love-In-Idleness' is lovely, lovely, lovely!!
I love those treasure balls, but the Celestial fiber buns have my eye right now. I always hope for one of Deb's samples in my Phat Fiber box each month. Always so beautiful and soft!
I love all the different colors, and the treasure balls. But my favorite has to be the Firestar Rainbow Sampler.
Love the Flannel Shirt Roving. Pretty rovings, many pretty rovings!

I think the Enchantress corespun yarn is my favorite. I wish my handspun came out like that!

I posted on Twitter.
My favourites are the Milky Buns, 'Moody Blues'. Never tried spinning Milk Latte Spinning Fiber. Looks great.
The Ferosh Merino Wool Top is a perfect color for my daughter...
My favorite is the Faded Beauty roving.
I want that honey tussah silk! I'm new at spinning and I've been dying to try silk, it looks perfect and beautiful!
it's hard to pick a favorite because there are so many beautiful things in her shop, but one of my favs is the "Pansy Explosion" superwash BFL roving. not just because i love the name but the colors are gorgeous.
WOW, Flannel Shirt - milk latte.
What fun to spin.

I love the H.A.Y. treasure balls - some amazing one-of-a-kind-yarn can be made of that. Lovely.
I bought a Cirque de Soleil SAL
and chose the Dralion. i LOVE it.
The colors are gorgeous and the fiber is so soft. It's spinning up
like buttah!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Milk Latte Moody Blues. Your description of how you prefer it as a blend in a BATT as opposed to roving or top was VERY interesting. Lovely work.
Sunflowers - - a lovely art batt that I could sit down ans spin right this second! Great work, HAY!
love the Savannah Merino Top
purple merino sampler!
Looking at the H.A.Y. treasure balls just makes me want to spin...I can only imagine what actually holding one in my hands would do....!!!
I like the Love-in-Idleness roving.
I'm in love with Love in Idleness sock yarn - gorgeous colors!
The Monet Batts are so beautiful!
Milk Spinning Fiber, 'Golden Delicious', 2.1 oz. - this is so pretty!
I adore the Alice in Wonderland yarn because it is quietly beautiful. Doesn't ask for attention, just commends it. Softness and subtlety rule the day. Dawn in Victoria, B.C.
I love the treasure balls, and the flannel shirt colorway.
The ferosh merino is very sweet nd feminine
I'm quite partial to the "The Visitor" handspun yarn with the beehives in it. It's so interesting and sweet!

SO pretty!!!
