Hilltop Cloud Coedlan Spinning Kit Giveaway!


Katie from Hilltop Cloud in Wales sent in several lovely "Coedlan" patterns, complete with buttons she made herself! The Coedlan pattern is a beautiful cowl/scarf that would show of that special skein of soft handspun. Katie took the guesswork out of it all, and included several BFL/Seacell batts in this beautiful heathery lilac for this giveaway!

Everything is so soothing to look at at Hilltop Cloud today! So many natural fibers and it makes me want to touch everything there! She's got a british Wool sampler for sale, I would personally love to try!

Please visit Hilltop Cloud today, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll be counting your extra social networking pings- facebook, twitter, pinterest as extra entries! Thanks for helping us spread the word about Hilltop Cloud!

  6. Well, I love that sampler box, I'd love to do some kind of colorwork piece using all the natural sheepy goodness. (PINNED that item to PINTEREST)

    And, speaking of natural colors, that Bracken-dyed BFL is also so beautiful. I'm fascinated by foraging for natural dyestuffs...

    The British Breed fiber sampler looks interesting. Lime Cordial looks refreshing. Lumos looks luxurious. Candy Floss looks cute. Need I go on, or is it obvious already that I pretty much want everything?
