Whew! We drove most of the day to get away from the blizzard that is sweeping across country! I think we may be in safe territory now- or at least perhaps we won't get sacked as hard as other places! Times like these make me really glad I know how to spin, because it comes in handy for entertainment (and warmth) purposes when the power is out.
Ricky from Silver Sun Alpacas has sent in a gorgeous spindle kit giveaway! It's slightly different than the one pictured, but you will get a spindle, instructions, gorgeous alpaca fiber all in an organza bag. Perfect for beginners and experienced spindlers alike!
I adore Silver Sun Alpacas- especially Ricky's batts! For some reason, she's always got just the perfect amount of sparkle and softness!
What do you like in Silver Sun Alpacas shop? Let us know in the comments section, and you'll be entered to win this beautiful spindle kit! Make sure you let your friends on Facebook and twitter know about this! You'll get extra entries for social networking.

Especially as it's the dead of winter, I am in love with the Fall is Here batt
Definitely in love with lucy in the sky with diamonds!
Shared on facebook!
OMG such loveliness! How could you pick just one? Having said that, I find myself drawn to the Fire Red Spinning Fiber.
Mmmmmmm...the Blueberry Grapes - Spinning Fiber, Batt caught my eye right away!
I'm not usually a red/pink person, but the way they're handled here are too lovely! Garnets and Pearls is almost too pretty in roving form to even want to make into yarn.
i have to say i still adore lucy in the sky with diamonds :)
The pinks and browns of the Tea Party batt are really pretty.
I have a soft apot for this shop as it was the very first place I bought a spindle! Love the blueberry grapes colorway.
The Los Olivos sliver is gorgeous!
I LOVE the Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds batt! LOVE!
The Redwood Forest is what catches my eye!
I love the obsidian batt! I'm looking forward to the gems of Feb!
It's not fiber, but I wants Babe's Bulky Production Double Treadle Spinning Wheel!
I would have to pick a grab bag from the shop. As a brand new spinner I am interested in trying anything and everything because it's all new.
I love the Arthur batt.
Really like the Lavender Vanilla Alpaca and Merino batt. Lovely, soft colors for a soft sounding fiber!
I think yhat orange is such an an up raising color.so my favorite would have to be the fire red
Damask - Spinning Fiber is lovely!
Black Alpaca / Pale Lavender Bamboo top, Soft, Spider Web Collection, and two of the prettiest yarns I've seen: Double Coffee Swirls - Pure Baby Natural Colored Alpaca Yarn and Double Mocha Swirls - Pure Baby Natural Colored Alpaca Yarn
*Love* them all!
Oh, I love the Tea Party. Newbie to spinning and in search of roving.
the victorian love is beautiful!
I love the Blueberry Grapes batt!
I heart the blueberry grapes!
I love the Harry spinning fiber!
I love all the drop spindle kits! I have been wanting to learn for such a long time!

I'm not a big fan of pink, but when it's paired with brown, like in the Tea Party batt, I love it!
The prices on the bamboo top are excellent, and I really like that there are kits AND grab bags! Lots of great stuff to choose from!
It's hard to choose... I love the Harry batt and the Victorian Love fibers. And the bamboo trios.
FB'd and twitted
I love the Arthur batt - such cool and restrained colours.
I usually dont do pink- but I ADORE the Victorian Love set. Unfortunately I am a bit low on funds right now.
I really like the Harry batt (and I love Ricky's Grab Bags!)
Posted on FB as well.
Wow, the kit with the Fire Red spinning fiber is amazing! So much deliciousness in that shop...
With the ice storm outside, I am so ready for spring. I think the DAFFODAILS - Drum Carded Batt would be perfect to spin on a day like today.
Ooh, I adore the Redwood Forest Batt. Love!
the tri colored bamboo is wonderful, there's a few of them but the fuchia one and rose one caught my eye!
spinning kit with red fire. NICE

Victorian Love <3!!!!!
I love Silver Sun Alpacas Drop Spindle kits especially the beautiful handyed options they come with. Nothing says It's time to start spinning then a beautiful shade of roving. I especially like the fire red which is surprising since I normally hate red.
Double coffee swirls, please. Could I have a little whipped cream on that?
This is a hard one today, I love the .Eggplants - Mulberry Silk Sliver Top, Hand dyed and White, 3 oz and the .Rose - Bamboo Rayon, Handdyed, White and Black Carbonized - 4.5 oz. and the Victorian Love - Romantic Selected Spinning Fiber, Batt From Silver Sun Alpacas. I am just learning to spin and it all looks so good.
Blueberry grapes & lavender vanilla sound good and look pretty!

I like the Arthur spinning batt.
I really like the eggplants-mulberry silk silver one, it is so beautiful.
Love the Natural Brown Alpaca yarn and Silk, Medium Weight, Very Soft :)
Thanks!
i like the spindle kit with the fire red spinning fiber. i used to spin years ago, but would like to learn again. never used a spindle, had a spinning wheel before.
I am strangely drawn to los olivos. some thing about the sheen of the fiber and the shade of that green is exquisite. I am just a beginner with a spindle made with a cd but I can just imagine this fiber's beauty once it is spun.

I love the colors in this, it's quite unusual.
I love the Los Olivos mulberry silk sliver. It's gorgeous!
I love the sparkle in all the batts, but am crushing on the Arthur batt. I've never been one for sparkly things, but since I've learned to spin, I feel like I can really explore the sparkly side of my personality without it getting too disco, if you know what I mean ;-)
My favorites are the Obsidian batts and the Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds batts! Lovely!
I love the .Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - Beatles Inspired, Half Smooth Spinning Fiber, Batt From Silver Sun Alpacas!
Oooo!!!! I LOVE victorian love! Those are exactly my colors :)

I love the idea of a spindle & fiber kit! That damask batt takes my breath away too!
I think it would be fun to learn to spin with the Pinky spinning fiber. It reminds me of cotton candy.
Where do I start? I always have a bunch of their stuff in my etsy "favorites". The Blueberry Grapes spinning bat looks just yummy tonight!
id take any of the angeline in a heart beat but that crayon blue trio is pretty awesome too!
oops shetibo on rav was supposed to go in my last post i keep forgetting to put how to contact me :P
I was instantly drawn to the Silver Bullet batt.
Oh my goodness - everything is beautiful! I wanted to reach right into the photos and touch every one of the fibers. Of course I liked "Pinky" best, but also really liked "Midnight Sunset" and "Garnets & Pearls"

I like the Red Flash glitz, that is a gorgeous color.
Loving that silver bullet! how utterly gorgeous and aptly named!
I really like the Blueberry Grape batts but I like them all!
What isn't to love! The colors are so vibrant and inviting. If I had to pick though I really like the Los Olivos (sp?) Mulberry Silk.
Swirls Alpaca / Silk Roving, Medium Brown/Beige, Natural colors - Spider web collection looks like a dream to spin!
My favorite is the Annabell batt.
Yummmm... I love "Midnight Sunset" and "Redwood Forest". She always has the most beautiful batts in her shop. The mulberry silks are verra tempting!
Damask batts, all the way. Tweeted @mitoticspindle
I love the Eggplant mulberry silk sliver, it looks so shiny and soft and gorgeous!
I would really love to learn to spin. I would love any of their drop spindle kits. Thanks! Debbie in Alask

Whaaat, you want me to go look at Silver Sun Alpaca's store? OH OKAY!
Ooo, Victorian Love is cool! Oh, and so is that "Damask" batt, and the Lavender Vanilla fiber ... I'm on some pink of a pink/purple/pastel kick, it seems.
