Into the whirled Batt Giveaway!


Woke up to a very gloomy Monday morning, so I thought I would cheer you all up with this beautiful Into the whirled Batt Giveaway! April's box theme is "Butterflies and Flutterbys" and it is slated to be a gorgeous box!

Into the whirled has sent in samples in a colorway called "Siproeta Stelenes" and it's got all my favorite earthy colors combined in one top!

Our giveaway batt today is a gorgeous Polwarth batt (perfectly carded in the Into the Whirled way) in the same Siproeta Stelenes colorway- beautiful! We are giving this batt away to a lucky commenter on the blog, just visit Into the Whirled today, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below! If you post about it on Facebook or twitter, let us know and we'll count that as an extra entry.

It would take too long to say all the things that I love about Into the Whirled fiber! GORGEOUS, gorgeous stuff. I constantly drool. My current favorite is the Cloud 9 that is up, and I am hoarding my funds to be able to actually place an order! lovelovelove.

I love Rambutan on BFL/Silk!

Jaguarrior said...

Those colors are really pretty!

I think my favorite today is the Saginaw Sock yarn in that gorgeous Minotaur! The purples and browns look really cool together!

Rebekah said...

Rambutan sock yarn. Oooooh my goodness. I literally had to run from the store before I threw my fiber budget out the window.

Stacy said...

The BFL Patina colorway is so pretty.

Anonymous said...

I just love the Polwarth - Rambutan. I instantly thought about a bowl of fresh berries, whipped cream and caramel sauce.

wishuponafarm said...

I love both calico blue and mumbles.

Diana said...

I LOVE the blues of surf and sand! And all the wool/silk blends. :)

Minotaur is such a striking name for such a lovely beautiful colourway. I think it is great. I also think this batt is gorgeous. Wow. Website saved for future splurge...

Kim Reid said...

Love the Calico Blue Sock Yarn!
Thanks :)

SJS said...

That batt is amazing! It looks so earthy and painterly!

My favorite fibers are the Falkland in Surf and Sand and the Polwarth in Minotaur.

lauraelih said...

The sock yarn in "muse" looks so squishable! I am in a blues and browns phase these days

elendir said...

I really like the Patina BFL

Posted on FB as well

♥ Meg ♥ said...

I am in love with the Polwarth top "One dot twenty-four" It's all these gorgeous shades of green and it just makes me think of spring. Really some beautiful roving.

Unknown said...

I love both the Muse and the Perfect Storm colorways, so much of it is pretty, though!

purplepenguin said...

So much to like! I guess right now my favorite is Bukavu Sock Yarn - Equinox. I like the subtle colors and it would go with lots of my clothes.

Galia Lael said...

No batts in the shop?? I love ITW batts! I'd have to pick the Viola sock yarn as my favorite.

FB'd and twitted

InJuneau said...

Pretty, pretty, pretty. I love the Falkland in Surf & Sand and the Polwarth in Muse, Rambutan, and Bird Girl.

Karen E(ravelry's Faeryl) said...

My favorite colorway's got to be the Surf and Sand(falklands braid). But it's all so gorgeous! :-)

Corwinna said...

I think the Polwarth Muse is really wonderful! A great dance of colors that match and compliment each other very well :-)

Anna B said...

melody said...

The Polwarth top is some of the nicest spinning ever!

Tara A said...

Do I have to pick one? Everything is beautiful! I do however really like the batt being given away

Rachel said...

I love ALL of the ITW fibers! I got some of that sock yarn in Viola in my last order and it's scrumptious!! It was my first yarn purchase - The spinning fibers are to die for.

Peacecat said...

Rambutan...and Equinox. All are beautiful, and her fiber is always a real pleasure to spin! But I've been eyeing that Rambutan for quite some time...

Intothewhirled is one of my favorite fiber sources!

Peacecat said...

I posted a comment on Facebook...count my vote please!

(PULEEEZE!!)

I love ITW's batts and rovings and she is one of the NICEST fiber gals out there!

TinkerTots said...

I love all of Cris' stuff, but I especially love anything dyed in Minotaur!

Jennifer said...

The BFL Potpourri is delicious!

Anonymous said...

All of Cris's colors are great but today my favorite is Intrepidity.
Jane

VeloCC said...

I bought to fiber batts in her last update but the Surf and Turf is calling my name...really loudly...

Magan said...

Lovely colorways! I adore Intrepidity and Voila, among others.

Kathleen said...

I wish she had more of the Quercus in the BFL/Silk.

Diana, Fiber Fancy said...

Love the Rambutan, GORGEOUS!

Lauren said...

I don't even need to return to the ITW website to tell you about the things I love from her site! I've spun a few fibers from Into The Whirled in the past and they've all turned out beautifully! She's also just started dyeing yarn and I've knit up a pair of semi-solid socks in her Gloucester Sock base... the yarn is just as delicious and beautiful as the fiber she dyes!

Susan F. said...

Muse, Bird Girl yarn, and Surf & Sand are great. But, there are really too many to choose only a few favorites.

Rudy's Mom said...

Love Minotaur!

Nancy McDowell said...

Discovering ITW is the best thing to happen to my spinning EVER! I've been spinning for over 20 years and I have never seen such perfectly prepared and dyed fiber. I can't possibly pick a favorite as each one is more beautiful than the next. I love ITW!

I am also posting this on my facebook.

Hillside said...

I love the BFL/Silk Viola

Sue said...

Rambutan, absolutely luscious!

rumplestiltskin82 said...

I really like Intrepidity, and it looks like everybody else does, too since it's sold out!

VengeanceBunnie said...

Garden Party and Minotaur are two of the most fabulous colorways ever! Siproeta Stelenes is another piece of work. LOVE ITW!!!

Mara said...

pretty!

My favs from the shop are Rambutan and Minotaur :)

Anonymous said...

I loved Lafayette with the intense yellow and orange paired with blue and fushia. I enjoyed seeing that batt and the finished yarn of Ribbon Candy. Really a great name for the colorway.

Brittany F said...

I love all of the colors but just finished knitting a pair of sock in the bird girl color and am in love.I think I need atleast one of each color...

Unknown said...

How do I pick just one when they are all so beautiful. But I can say I am in a tug of war between the Polwarth Minotaur and the Polwarth Ribbon Candy. sue.splace@yahoo.com

Anonymous said...

I guess I'm easily pleased: the "Voila" colorway is gorgeous. Heck, everything on there's gorgeous enough to make me learn spinning.

Oh, I would love to win this beautiful bat! It would be my very first one, since I'm a new spinner. Thanks for the offering!

I have a hard time choosing but I really like the Voila colorway in anything.

I just love the colors of the BFL batt in 'Potpourri' colorway, and the Pakokku Sock Yarn in 'Bird Girl'.

OverNite Knitter said...

I really like the Polwarth Roings.

Anita Figueras said...

The batt is gorgeous, as are the wares in the shop. If I have to pick just one, I cast my vote for the Polworth Voila. Now that I am learning to spin, fiber is going to win out over yarn every time!

Lilm4105 said...

I absolutely love her stuff and get a few batts at the local shows and last year at Rhinebeck. I really like the Equinox and Ribbon candy fibers best of all.

ZombieCat said...

I'm torn between the Merino Intrepidity and the Polwarth Voila. Gorgeous purples!

Heather P said...

Ribbon Candy is beautiful.

Cathy said...

I love Cris and ITW and all her colorways - I just snagged more than my fair share of the last update, but a couple that got away (for now) that I love are Muse and Cloud 9. The batt above is gorgeous!

Mary said...

So hard to pick a favorite! calico blue and brandywine are way up there though! thanks for the giveaway!

Lois said...

Oh, I LOVE the Rambutan. The colors!! Amazing! Posted to Facebook too!

Allison / CompassioKnit said...

That Rainbow Dash is perfect for springtime!

Janette said...

I think the Polwarth Rambutan is gorgeous!

Paulette said...

The Ulundi Sock Yarn in Calico Blue is gorgeous! All of the fiber is beautiful - I couldn't pick just one!

Ilona said...

Cloud 9 for me. :) Just a lovely collection of blues with hints of earthy brown thrown in.

theonlyevidence said...

This is going to be hard for me because I love all things ITW...but I'm really drawn to the colors in Ribbon Candy. Yummy!
