Fiber Fancy Drop Spindle Learn to Spin Giveaway!


You said you wanted to learn to spin... well, here is your chance! The beautiful Diana of Fiber Fancy has put together a drop spindle ( a really cool handmade one at that!) some gorgeous Fiber Fancy Fiber, and a carry pouch for you!

When you learn how to spin, think of all the candy-like fluffy braids you can buy at Fiber Fancy. So beautiful, you can never have just one :) I especially love that most often you can buy 8oz of her unique colorways- enough to spin for a shawl!

Please visit Fiber Fancy today, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner later this week, please remember to facebook and twitter this too for extra entries!
