Southern Mystic Sock Yarn Giveaway!



I'm excited to be hosting another sock yarn giveaway this week! Julie from Southern Mystic has a whole zodiac collection in her shop right now, which I find very interesting and fun. I think we all tend to look at our horoscopes this time of year, pondering what the next 12 months will bring for us. For me, more fibery fun, that's for sure- and I hope you all as well!

I like to think of Julie as a renaissance woman. She is a gifted storyteller, fiber artist and now shepherdess!! We'll be watching out for home grown fleece in the coming year!

For this last giveaway of the week, please visit SouthernMystic today, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below. We would love for you to both, leave an identifying mark for receipt of item and for you to send out a social networking ping about this and SouthernMystic. We'll count it as an extra entry!

    Oh my. The Sagittarius yarn fits my preferences to a T! Leo is great as well.

    Being a scorpio, I should say scorpio but I was really liking her Smoke and Embers handspun.

    my gosh! I am in love with the Pisces colorway! it isn't the usual blue or purple we get for our sign, it's a beautiful mix that looks like it was lifted straight out of a koy pond. what a perfect birthday present. the Aries colorway is a close second, it is the perfect representation of my hubby!
