Bitsy Knits Rustic Roving giveaway!


September is when Bitsy of BitsyKnits hits the road for several venues! If you're able to visit the Garden State Sheep Breeders festival this weekend, look her up!

We very much enjoy Bitsy's creativeness when it comes to her samples. We're giving away this beautiful Rustic Roving which is a gorgeous natural Romney-Rambouillet cross fiber that was prepared woolen style in a working early 20th century mill!

Just visit Bitsy Knits, find something you love, write about it in the comments section below and we'll draw for a winner later in the week! Simple, right?

  23. My favorite colorways are Beaches at Night, Manhatten [sic] Rhapsody, and Blue Hullabaloo. I'm really impressed that BitsyKnits is supporting a turn-of-the-century mill at a time when manufacturing, and especially textiles, are not so big in the States anymore. Great work!
