Silver Sun Alpacas Learn to Spin Kit
I am on an incredible high from this past weekend. So much spinning, laughter and good times!
I bet you're thinking you already know which one of the Silver Sun Alpacas listings I'm in love with- the green silkie collection. While, I do love that one, the "Royal" batt is just to die for!!
Ricky from Silver Sun Alpacas should be on your top 10 go-to list of fiber enablers! To prove just what kind of enabler she is, she's put together this wonderful drop spindle kit for a lucky commenter. Because, really, shouldn't you be building another skill set and learning to spin? All the cool kids are doing it ;)
Please visit Silver Sun Alpacas, find something you love, and write about it in the comment section below. We'll be drawing for a winner later in the week, please make sure you let all of your friends on Facebook, twitter, ravelry etc know about how much you love Silver Sun Alpacas- we'll count it as an extra entry!!

The Wisteria Bamboo Rayon is very pretty, especially the purple.
I wonder how wisteria would spin up. Looks amazing
I think a grab bag would be lots of fun. I love surprises.
oooh, so many pretties.......
i love the "garnet and pearl" batts.....the luxury sampler package.....the rose, the wisteria, and the gold tops......the bamboo rayon sampler.......
so hard to choose just one!!!

I love the Spring Twist Roving! Tweeted as well!
I love the grab bags. Got one recently and it is one of the best fiber deals out there.
I also like the black alpaca drop spindle kit. Lots of yummy things at this shop.
I also retweeted you.
Oooh, I like the Spring Twist batt as well!
The Spring Twist is my favorite, and you are right about the Green Silkie!
Twitted too @SpindleDesigns
WOW IT IS ALL SO BEAUTIFUL!! Would love to win this giveaway. I am just learning the basics right now.
Royal batt is gorgeous (and Ricky's grab bags are always chock full of beautiful fiber)
FB as well
The milk protein top looks luscious!
I love the bamboo rayon top! =)
Spring Twist is so so pretty! I love those colors together :)
I love that Spring Twist batt, and the Pinkie one too!
Jess
Awesome! I love the garnets and pearls batt!
I like the .Double Mocha Swirls - Pure Baby Natural Colored Alpaca Yarn
I like the Pinky batt - the natural fibers look lovely, too.
I absolutely love the Bamboo Rayon
fiber in crayon blue. It makes me feel like I am looking at a taffy cloud in a candy store! Good enough to eat:)
Jade Green - Bamboo Rayon, Handdyed, The Perfect Trio. But with greem being my favorite color it tends to jump out at me the most.
I want to learn to spin so I have my fingers crossed. The Spring Twist with purples and browns is beautiful.
Oh, wow! Everything just looks so luscious! It would be a lot of fun to just roll in those fibers, of course we might want to remove the spindles first, that might hurt. I wish I could spin, then I would have a bit more of a reason to spend money on such awesome fibers, like the shiny, silky looking milk protein top or the Bamboo top.
Thanks for the chance,

I really like the Green Lime silk collection. Looks like fun to spin.
I loved everything but the....Fuchia - The Perfect Trio - Bamboo Rayon was my absolute favorite!
I really love the Tea Party batt. The colors are great and it looks so soft.
Love the obsidian batt. Adding to my wish list!
what a great giveaway! I am in love with the ALA - Natural Brown Alpaca yarn and Silk.
Thank you for this wonderful give away. I love the Wisteria - Bamboo Rayon, Handdyed, White and Black Carbonized - 4.5 oz.
Royal and Crayon Blue are whispering Robin, Robin, Robin. See I need to win the kit to make the voices stop:)
I really like the colors of the green lime silkies! and i have been meaning to try and learn how to spin!
I love the gloss of the bamboo/rayon handdyed!
Oh. My. God. The Fuchsia trio with the carbonised and white bamboo fibre. That is the most sensuous-looking stuff I have ever seen. I gave up on spinning long ago, but for that stuff, I would learn!
Louise
Wow I love the Green Lime selected silkies roving! I think I might just go get me some!
I love the bamboo top pastel sampler...if I couldn't learn to spin it, it looks like I could eat it!
Too many pretty colors! Really like the Spring Twist Spinning Fiber Batt this morning :)
Jade Green all the way! So pretty. I have always wanted to try spinning and this would be so perfect.
I just love the Pinky and Tea Party batts! I fantasized for a long time about having the perfect pink handspun... the closest I ever got was a small skein from PinkPeppercorns back before she sold her wheel. I wanna stick my nose in it!
How fun! I love all of the bamboo batts. The sheen and depth of color are just gorgeous!
la la! I love the Royal with the purple and gold tones, lovely.
I "liked" Silver Sun Alpacas on Facebook!
Re-Tweeted it :)
Love the Crayon Blue - Bamboo Rayon, Handdyed, White and Black Carbonized :)
Thanks!

This Black Carbonised Bamboo Top - Soft and Beautiful - 2 oz. is so luurious looking. What a great offer the spinning kit is. Thanks to you and Silver Sun for the giveaway.
Love love love Sour Patch and Tea Party. I don't know how to spin (yet), but I'd love to learn!

"Find something that you love" in Ricky's shop...? Uhh, how about EVERYTHING!
You are correct in saying that she should be a 'go to' for anything fiberwise. (I have purchased from her before and will do more in the near future...wonderful person to work with!)
So, fiber and spindle, eh?
Sign me up!
A beginner's kit is a great idea. I haven't learned to spin yet, but it is on my to do list for this year.
The royal batt it so pretty and squishy looking, but I could use a learn to spin kit.... I'm still learning.
I love the Green Lime Selected Silkies the color is beautiful.
I'm eyeing the Royal batt something fierce. It's so lovely.
Love the Wisteria bamboo rayon. What a great giveaway!
I love the tea party batt and the learn to spin kits. Learning to spin is on my "learn to" list.
oh, i really want to learn to spin :) i love the Sour Patch - Mulberry Silk Sliver Top, Hand dyed and White, 2 oz. From Silver Sun Alpacas - bet that'd make some pretty yarn!!

Obsidian!! <3 it! Great giveaway. Thank you for the chance to win :D
I love the Sour Patch - Mulberry Silk Sliver Top, Hand dyed and White, 2 oz. From Silver Sun Alpacas.
The Crayon Blue roving! My all-time favorite shade of blue, and it's soooo shiny. I'm also thrilled to see another learn-to-spin kit up for grabs - the only thing preventing me from picking up a drop spindle to try it out is a very, very sad little budget.
The "ALA - Natural Brown Alpaca yarn and Silk, Medium Weight, Very Soft" looks so yummy!
I love the green lime and the tea party!!!
I love the Green Lime Selected Silkies Roving Collection. Amazing color!
my 8yo dd has decided we need to learn to spin! i love obsidian- absolutely beautiful!

I absolutely love the Bamboo Rayon warm color sampler. Those colors together are making me drool and are so appropriate for the season! What an awesome contest!! I'm PurlVerde on Ravelry and I can also be reached at housemonkeywoo@hotmail.com
Oh my the Green Lime selected silkies roving collection looks amazing. I love the color green and that just inspires me to learn how to spin.
Shared on facebook! My friends and family back home will love this stuff and the fact that there is packages so they could learn how to spin is great!
I love the green silkies roving collection. Perfect for spring (in Australia)
I want want want the bamboo top!
It's been a while since I visited this shop. I'm not going to let that go so long next time, after seeing all of the gorgeous fibers Ricky has added.
I especially love the Wisteria - Bamboo Rayon, Handdyed, White and Black Carbonized, and I'm thinking I might have to join the Princess and the Frog spin-a-long, although I'm not sure how that'll work out, since I just had surgery on my foot. Might have to pick up one of the learn to spin kits, just in case I can't use my wheel, lol.
I <3 Crayon Blue & Green Lime.
The damask is beautiful.
My first spindle class is this weekend. Can't wait to learn what to do with beautiful things like this.
I love the Spring Twist batt! So pretty :)
I'm in love with ALL of their offerings:) The Tea Party Batt is calling to me this morning though:-)
The Spring Twist - Spinning Fiber Batt is gorgeous!

Everthing always looks at least twice as beautiful in person as on the monitor. This Lavender - Bamboo Rayon, Handdyed, White and Black Carbonized - 6 oz. could be only half as beautiful and it would still be stunningly gorgeous.
I love the Wisteria Bamboo Rayon Handyed, white and black carbonized. So GORGEOUS!!!!@
The Black Alpaca / Pale Lavender Bamboo top, Soft, Spider Web Collection From Silver Sun Alpacas looks absolutely soft and luscious. I've always wanted to try a fiber with bamboo content!
I am in LOVE with the Double Mocha Swirls baby Albaca yarn... I need 2 dozen skeins of that to roll around in! :)
