Wandering Wool Yarn giveaway!





I think Wandering Wool has some of the most gorgeous yarn I've seen in a while! I love the color selection and every base that I have seen come in to the sampler, has just been outstanding. Take this Udaipur base, it's a lovely 50/50 merino/silk base that is so slinky and soft!!

Check out Joelle's shop- she's specialized in solid/semi solid beauties that will take your breath away! I have to admit, I have a yarn crush on the Seven Seas colorway! So many gorgeous things to choose from, It might be easier to just buy the club :)

Please visit Wandering Wool today, 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 use your social networking skills (facebook, twitter, plurk, pinterest etc) and gain extra entries by helping spread the good word.

    I'm in a "want all the colors" mood, so my favorite item would be the sock yarn mini club. Normally the cranberry bog colorway is my favorite though.

    I wants the Alpaca / Wool / Silk Yarn - Single-Ply DK Weight Yarn in Alpine Meadow Colorway.

    My little fibre-loving heart is swooning at the blend and I just long to see how it would work up. I can't afford enough for the big snuggley poncho I *want* to make from it.... Maybe a cowl?

    They're all such gorgeous, rich colors! Seven Seas is my favorite, but that's partly because there's no way I could decide between so many lovely shades of burgundy/wine/cranberry...

    I admit I'm a regular lurker on WanderingWool. I think everything in the shop is drool-worthy, and I couldn't be happier about this giveaway (now all I have to do is win, lol). There are too many skeins in that shop that I love the most, so I allow myself not to choose one right now :)

    It's so hard to pick! The colorways that jumped out at me are Black Currant, Pirate's Cove, and Leather Bound Book, but it would obviously depend on what I was making and for whom.
    I like the idea of the mini sock skeins, but since I already never use my scrap yarn, they'd probably just sit around.

    I actually just bought Emerald Isle and am SO excited for that to come. Finding that deep of a green in a solid is really difficult, and I have just the pattern in mind right now! My other favorite is the Opalescent yarn in the blue. I actually saw this one (no in the blue though) at a LYS, and it is so smooshy and beautiful!

    I love your Merino Silk Sock Yarn - Hand Dyed 50/50 Merino Silk Fingering Weight in Georgia Peach Colorway. It's so pretty.
