Would you look at this beautiful hand dyed alpaca yarn from NorthStar Alpacas? It's got all those luxurious jewel tones and the base is an incredibly soft 70% Alpaca and 30% Merino for bounce.
This is mill spun yarn from Maple's own herd of Alpacas. You won't find this luxurious base anywhere else and it's really worth the scant $22 she's charging for a skein!
To enter the drawing for this lovely yarn, please visit North Star Alpacas today, find something you love, and c'mon back here and write about it in the comments section below. You'll be entered twice if you twitter/facebook/pinterest/plurk this!

I love this! I love any yarn! These colors are GORGEOUS.
The alpaca baby yarn in periwinkle is amazing!
It looks wonderful. I really love the Alpaca Merino Yarn - Worsted Weight in the yellow, orange, red colorway. The color reminds me of the "jane-hat" from the TV-show Firefly.

I still love the purple/green/blue hand-dyed alpaca/merino yarn!
I'm a sucker for natural-color alpaca fiber, especially when there are pictures of the adorable lil critter it came from! :) The Soft Fawn color is gorgeous, and the suri fiber blended in makes it really striking.
Well, I just clicked over after having ordered a custom batt from North Star Alpacas to duplicate their lovely January Box sample, so that lets you know one thing I love from them. I'll add that I love the natural look of the swirled alpaca roving. Such a nice way to showcase the beauty of natural fleece!
Great yarn, I really love the handspun, its makes ever project so unique.
The periwinkle blue is really lovely. :)
I can't seem to get the link to work, but this skein of yarn is GORGEOUS!

Ooh that is pretty too. I am trying to move away from earth tones (my haven) to more bright light and airy colors AND jewel tones. I also need to break my spindle out again our my husband will have something else to add to my list of bought but barely used tools :)
