A Dyeing Wish Fiber and Spindle Giveaway!
For our beautiful February box, Angelique of A Dyeing Wish created a gorgeous colorway inspired by the birthstones of her own family members. She lovingly calls this "Family Jewels". It's really gorgeous, beautifully prepared with hints of nylon firestar for strength.
I keep picturing this spun up... a beautiful gemstone barberpoled yarn... yum!
Speaking of spinning! Did I mention we're also giving away this beautiful handcrafted spindle? Angelique is a woman of many talents!!!
We're giving away this beautiful fiber and spindle set! Please visit A Dyeing Wish today, find something you love, and come back here to the blog and write about it. We'll be counting your facebook and twitter updates about this as extra entries, so be sure and do your part before the end of the week!

I have been wanting a new spindle, and these are lovely! My favorite is the hand sculpted spindle in ebony and teal.
I'd love a skein of the regal sock in both 'apopka' and 'sailors delight' Such beautiful colors! Her batt you are giving away has such brilliant colors! Just beautiful!
I like the turquoise spindle, and the batts look fantastic.
The tussah silk in Lizzy looks incredible.
I am really interested in her Terra Mater line of organic yarn. I love to dye my own yarn and those look great.

I have been wanting some 100% silk, and her Opulence lace looks just perfect, perhaps in Redwood forest
Wow, I love the blues and greens of the silk Lizzy. I haven't tried spinning silk yet, but this is very tempting.
So many beautiful things in her shop. It was difficult to pick a favorite, but I think I have to go with the "Lizzy" tussah silk. What a fantastic rich color!
I'll take the Nightmare colorway in ANY fiber! Very cool!
Her "nightmare" colorway is more like my dream. What a beautiful collection of colors to melt into.
Ooo the Nightmare colorway is great!
That Sherwood Colorway was designed with me in mind. I cant wait to see her spinning fiber !!
The drop spindles in her shop make me want to buy them all! I especially loved the Purple Purls Italian Designer Resin Drop Spindle with Rosewood shaft. *sighs with envy and love*
The Edge Water batt is so pretty and I love the paisley polymer clay spindle.
the spindles are lovely
Her luxury mulberry silk and fine merino wool roving in Purls and Emeralds looks luscious!

Oooo...spindle candy!
I know the her website is a 'work in progress', and I'm liking what I see so far.
Love the transitional yarns.
Such awesome batts on a Dyeing Wish's Etsy shop! My favorite thing by far is the "With Envy" batt. The dark and bright greens would make a really beautiful and subtly variegated yarn. I'm even envious of it, haha. Might have to snag it for the stash actually >_>
Thanks for the great chance at an awesome giveaway!
The Lizzy tussah silk and the Cay Lobos mulberry silk are gorgeous but there is some of he family jewels roving in her shop as well, just beautiful!
I like the Riparian batt :-)

Redwood forest is gorgeous. And I really like the "colorways" link - nice way to look at the yarns without being overwhelmed. Fabulous website!
I really like the Chesapeake Bay colorway.

I lover her lace yarn, especially the Vintage Lace and I would wanted in the colorway "Vanda", which is a goergeous orange. A Vonda is an orchid that is known for exactly those gorgeous colors.
I am also a beginner spinner that is always looking for fiber. Her idea to integrate her families birthstones makes it very special
Beautiful spindles! I really love the Carved Red River Jasper lace spindle - it's gorgeous!
Her spindles are gorgeous! Especially the hand-sculpted ones. And the Luxury Mulberry Silk and Fine Merino fibre in Purls and Rubies looks so soft.

I love the Nightmare colorway and the batts on her Etsy site in With Envy and Mermaid and Edge Water.
I love her hand sculpted spindles, but they're a little light for my taste so I think my big favorite is the Large Marbled Red Jasper Drop Spindle with Redwood shaft. :)
