    But, since you're making me choose a favorite, I'll choose the 4 Oz. Multicolor Green Polwarth Combed Top for Spinning or Felting Love the color combo. Although the BFL/Silk rovings look just fabulous, too.

    Very tempted on the New Hampshire Grown Roving Sampler Pack.

    Love the BFL/Silk Combed Top "Blue Moon Gradient"

    I like the Charcoal Cherries Gradient, but if it were in BFL I would like it a lot better because I would want to make my little girl something out of these colors, and I like the feel of BFL better for childen's items. If I liked it for me I wouldn't care because Polwarth is a very relaxing spin.

    I like that you have angora fiber (it's on my wish to spin list), and the felting needles (I want to needle felt... someday), but those two things arn't something I would buy in the near future... but maybe somewhere down the road when I have more free time.
