I like the Handspun Alpaca Yarn - 338 yards - Welcome Spring
The bulky brown alpaca/merino handspun is really calling to me. It just screams "I'm soft and warm and need to be knit into wonderful winter wear!"

I love her http://www.etsy.com/listing/72931551/spice-handdyed-baby-alpaca-yarn-220 the colors look pretty. The giveaway looks very pretty too
I have never spun pure alpaca, so the "100 percent Alpaca Roving - Brown and White Swirl" looks lovely. Plus, I love natural striped roving.

On my wishlist today is the Hand dyed Alpaca and Silk Roving ... as well as pretty much all the other fiber in the shop!
I love the raw fleece...both suri and huacaya. I've spun up some of the black that was in the Phat box a few months ago, and it spun like a dream.
All of the roving looks so beautiful that I can't decide on one that looks best.
The handdyed bandit yarn looks amazing!
I really like the bandit alpaca yarn. Such pretty colors.
I just want some alpaca/merino roving and some batts! I loved this shop even before I was a spinner, but now I'm just drooling all over my keyboard!

I just love the HandDyed HomeGrown Alpaca Yarn Homestead. It is sooo scrumptious, looks good enough to eat!
This yarn looks scrumptious. I just love spinning all of Maple's alpaca and am currently struck by the 3 way swirl in stock. Oh, wait, haven't I already bought some of that? No matter, can always use more!
I love Able's link http://www.etsy.com/listing/74020630/2011-alpaca-fleece-4-ounces-able - how Maple describes him as a 'gentle fiber boy' just kills me.
The Nite and Day batt is gorgeous!
I really love the subtle colors of the Roving - Salmon and Sky Blue.
I really like the Black Magic fiber, the teal is so pretty against the black
I like the Summertime Drumcarded Alpaca batts.
I would love to try my hand at processing one of the fleeces!
Able's fleece is quite handsome! How cute is that to include their photos???
