A Million Stars Sock Yarn Giveaway!
I'm so very pleased to be featuring a sweet new shop today! A Million Stars is a relatively new phattie with lovely saturated yarns! Like this beautiful, moody giveaway yarn- the colorway is "Things Unseen" and it is a beautiful 100% baby alpaca yarn!!
Luxury bases + beautiful dyeing = win for everyone! I think my favorite right now might be her September Phat Fiber contribution- Faerie Garden- lovely purples and green on a merino/cashmere base- yummy!!

Camel silk blend? Wowza! And I love the colors of Granite.
Also, your links appear mildly broken, instead of just going to http://www.etsy.com/shop/amillionstars, they go to http://phatfiber.blogspot.com/www.etsy.com/shop/amillionstars
I love the merino/seacell fingering in Aegean!
I really like the Electric Twist! What a fun collection of colours! I'd love to see how it knits up.

Every page has such beautiful colors, but I really like the silk/merino 'Leaden Skies'. What a gorgeous lace shawl that would make!
Another fan for "Granite" in camel and silk. I love camel fiber and can just see a shawl from that colorway.
Aphrodite Lace ... what's more to say?

The Faerie's Garden is so very deep. Want.
I like the variety of self striping yarn! Especially Grape Skins!
Love seacell.
I wouldn't know which one to chose!

With so much soft yummy yarn it was hard to choose, but the Superwash Merino braid of fiber titled "Choppy Seas" looks lovely!
I like the Superwash Merino Top 19.5 microns 4 oz. - Spun Sugar Merino - The Faerie's Garden. I always love the combination of greens, blues, and purples!
