Phoenix Yarn Cashmere Laceweight Giveaway!
Phoenix Yarn is formerly Jags Funky Fibers! Jags needed a new look and a new name after her hiatus earlier this year. I think the name suits her new shop beautifully! How appropriate that like a phoenix, she resurrects old sweaters into beautiful yarns!
I have been quite pleased with purchases made from Phoenix Yarn in the past- So pleased, that I have been "saving" this seafoam colored cashmere for quite some time! I have it earmarked for something from "knitted lace of Estonia" it's that wonderful!
We're giving away this fuchsia colored cashmere lace today! Just visit Phoenix Yarn, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below! We'll be drawing for a winner later this week, so please take a moment and facebook and twitter about it for extra entries!

I love the Pansy! Although what I would do with linen/cotton laceweight is as yet beyond me...
The Eggplant worsted cotton looks like it would be great fun to knit. Imagine a baby hat made from that!
valentine lace

Cotton Candy - Cobweb - such a fine yarn would make an interesting heirloom piece, though I don't know if I'd have the patience to make it.
I absolutely love the Coal colourway. So gorgeous and sophisticated!
The Pumpkin King yarn is such a rich, lovely shade of my favorite color~orange!
malachite, amethyst, and especially london fog....beautiful!

I just love the IDEA of her shop. I just bought some gorgeous cashemere from her and can't wait to get it. I don't know where she find so much fine wool sweaters to unravel and how she has the patience to unravel them but I love that she is giving a new life to some old knits.
pumpkin king and valentine are so vivid and lovely! - but all of those cashmeres are fantastic!
The valentine cashmere lace is wonderful!
Cotton Candy Cobweb and Valentine Lace are my favs in this shop!
Also tweeting and posting on FB about the giveaway!
Love that zucchini - so subtle!
That eggplant worsted weight cotton is one of the most beautiful colors I have ever seen. Oh the things I could do with that!
It's not usually my thing, but I love Pumpkin King!

The Key Lime Pie looks delicious, and so does the White Chocolate. Yum!
A few skeins of the Amethyst fingering would make a beautiful shawl
The Valentine Cashmere is beautiful!
Love that Coal lace cashmere!
Key Lime Pie just calls to me, much like the dessert! And cashmere isn't too terrible either, and fewer calories!

Wow! What a great idea and what beautiful yarns! I loved the Valentine lace - so pretty. I also really liked the Cotton Candy, but I've never heard of "cobweb" weight. ??

Amethyst - Fingering
Thats very pretty.
I love the bright, vibrant "Cherry - Sport - Silk/Nylon/Angora," although I wouldn't actually be able to purchase it since I'm allergic to angora.
I like the pansy linen/cotton lace. And with 4 skeins at 250yd/skein, there's enough for a nice summery wrap - for less than $30!
I have been checking out this shop for awhile! Right now, I really think Coal - Lace is the best. Subtle, sophisticated and luxurios!
I love the amethyst cotton fingering weight yarn. I have some other cotton yarns that I plan to make a sweater for my daughter out of - not enough of any one color so I figured I'd just do stripes or something. That yarn might just fit right in.
I'm feelin' the eggplant and london fog together=)
love the key lime pie! mmmm :)
I would give a chunk of my liver if it would get me an unlimited supply of the ivory lace weight cashmere. Nom
Pumpkin King is soooo vibrant and awesome!!
I love the white chocolate cashmere

What a great idea for an Etsy shop! My favorite is the coal laceweight cashmere! So pretty!
I love the Fushia Cashmere for the giveaway!
Thanks :)
zuchini and pumpking king and are lovely
Cashmere lace! Lovely. I like the Pumpkin King colour.
I really liked the white chocolate 100% cashmere lace yarn, and the ambrosia fingering weight yarn. I am also very interested in the sweater unraveling service. I have a couple of sweaters that would give me much more joy as yarn than they do as items to wear...
I usually see something that I super love as soon as the page comes up and this store was no exception - pumpkin king yarn all the way!
Love the Lilac sport. Beautiful color!!
The Valentine Lace is my favorite
I love that fuchsia cashmere you're giving away. And also the Coal lace cashmere. And the Key Lime Pie.
Twitted and FB'd

Amethyst is beautiful! Welcome back, love the new name.
I'm afraid to say it, but the Pumpkin King laceweight is sorta intriguing! Yay for repurposing (I wonder what it was in a former life?)
Oh, this is Very Cool. Love the Key Lime Pie, Cotton Candy and Malachite!

Yeay for recycled yarn! I love the Amethyst 100% cotton.
Clay lace weight Cotton/Linen/Ramie/Rayon has my favorite plant based fibers with rayon.
Ooh, Key Lime Pie and Pansy... the colors are gorgeous!
I love the colors. I can't decide between the Poppy or the Grenadine.
I think PUmpkin King might be my favorite!
My fav is VaLlentine. Thanks! Debbie in alaska
I think the Ambrosia is just lovely. Pumpkin King is great too, though!
buttercup sport weight!
The .Pumpkin King - Lace - 100% Cashmere is gorgeous!
Cotton candy is simply the perfect color of pink!
I think Lilac and Buttercup are my favs. Very nice assortment of colors. :)
Love the Key Lime Pie Lace -- beautiful color and 100% cashmere!
I love the Pumpkin King. I'm thinking it would make a wonderful cowl or lacy stole.

I like the Ivory - Fingering - 100% Merino Wool. I already know a pattern I'd like to knit from this yarn.
100% Cashmere?! I love the Valentine Lace. It looks so luxurious.

I like lilac and key lime pie!
I like lilac and key lime pie!
The Key Lime Pie - Lace - is gorgeous!!! Great shop!!
I have to say, the colors are all so vibrant and beautiful, but I am SO IN LOVE with the London Fog! I find it difficult to find a "true" grey - they are always tinged with another color (a blue grey, a purple grey), but this is a lovely true light grey
The Lilac sport 100% lambswool 205 yards looks like a good spring and summer color.
Pumkin King in Lace...so beautiful
Eggplant - what an awesome yarn and I love that it is recycled.
Gorgeous stuff! I'm particularly drawn to the Valentine laceweight cashmere - I'm on a pink kick at the moment.
I love the Amethyst fingerling yarn, but I would love to try some cashmere as I've yet to knit with some.
I like the Valentine - Lace - 100% Cashmere - 720 Yards - 50g
Pumpkin King is also pretty but Valentine Lace is still my favorite
