I love the fiber sample package and pretty much anything in the alpaca folder. But I was very drawn to this one (http://www.etsy.com/listing/97905733/fine-alpaca-roving-handpainted-fiber-for) since it is so radiant and reflects my wedding colours so closely...just makes me smile :)
I love the fiber sampler packages - the 24 breeds in one package is incredible! :)
All the colours are amazing! I especially like the Polwarth/Silk fibre in the red/orange/violet/yellow colourway - so bright and beautiful.
I absolutely love the Australian merino wool roving (15.5 micron) the colors are so yummy~

HOW CAN YOU PICK JUST ONE THING FROM WOOLGATHERINGS???
I love their stuff so much. But at this moment I'm particularly drawn to this http://img1-ec.etsystatic.com/000/0/5545755/il_570xN.340704377.jpg
Fb'ed and tweeted
So many great things to pick from. Love the Australian merino in the blues, teal and turqoise

I really like the 24 breed sampler. When I'm ready to expand beyond what I have been spinning, I know where to go!
I would love to give this to my wife for her birthday in three weeks!
Wonderful dye work. I love this BFL roving in orange, red and yellow.

Woolgatherings is one of my favorite vendors. I have been eyeing the merino sparkle and would be thrilled to get my hands on some. In the shop today, I am really drawn to the 24 Breed Fiber Sampler. What a treasure that would be!
I LOVE this shop!
The 24 Breed Sampler is a great package! The gradient dyed rovings are beautiful too.
I love her colorways! This one struck my fancy today: http://www.etsy.com/listing/101294563/sparkle-merino-roving-handpainted-roving.

I love the 24 breed sample. I was telling my mom about it the other day.
Kate is a dyeing genious! All her colours are awesome, but one of the things I love is that she always have some new and interesting fiber that I haven't tried before. Masham, Welsh, Cormo.. I'll have 'em all -. cause all the colours are stunning.
I love this shop. I'd have to put down the Alpaca/ Silk Roving in shades of blue as my latest favorite.
24 Breed Fiber Sampler !!!
drool. Unfortunately I used up my wool budget for the year. /cry
LOVE the black alpaca/silk roving! But I would happily take a whole ton of those colorways home if I had the funds, LOL!
I have a bunch of stuff favorited from her store! The BFL in shades of blue is lovely!
Beautiful colors! I really like the alpaca/silk in the blues and the BFL in the orange/pink combo.
It's ALL **GORGEOUS**! Most tempting is the BFL Wool Roving - Hand Painted in shades of blue. Rav amchart
I'm such a Woolgatherings junkie! I'm lucky that my semi-local LYS (well, when I'm visiting my parents 5 hours away!) carries her stuff so I get to grope it all in person! Anyway, I'm LOVING this BFL/Silk! http://www.etsy.com/listing/100839754/bfl-wool-silk-roving-7525-handpainted
Merino / Silk Roving - Hand painted Spinning Fiber - 4 oz.
I love the vibrant colors. The blue, green, red, purple, and yellow just jump out.

Love woolgatherings! Love the sparkle merino fiber, got some in the may box and it is already spun up! I am currently spinning the May playing favorites club selection also. My favorite is the polwarth silk blend.
I love almost any fiber. Really like the silk blends.
I love her choice of color combinations. The yarn itself looks gorgeous, but the hand dying makes it that much better. My favorite is the mix of salmon pink, red, raspberry, plum, and gray. Her shop is actually very close to my home so I can't wait to stop in and see everything she has!
I most like the color of this one:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/98449313/alpaca-silk-merino-wool-roving
And I'm also a lover of alpaca:)
*Sigh* I love so many fibers at Woolgatherings, but that new CTA/SAL fiber of merino and silk in colorway "Plum" caught instantly my eye...
I have been lusting for this 24 Breed Fiber Sampler - Undyed Roving for Spinning or Felting
I tweeted.
I love the gold/green/blue Polwarth roving. :)
I love all Your hand dyed braids - such rich lively combinations. I call them fibre porn! Today's favourite is the blue with golden yellow. The colours really glow.
I like the polwarth roving in blue, emerald green, lime green, and yellow!
Ooooh, I hear it calling my name. Here Cindy Cindy..... here Cindy Cindy.. :)))
I love WoolGatherings. I want ALL the fibers, such gorgeous colorways!
But if I had to pick just one, I'd choose the SAL exclusive Navy colorway preorder, in BFL. Yum!
I really love the blue alpaca/silk blend. :)
wow - love those colors!! have put the breed fiber sampler on my must have list! just what i have been looking for recently (:
I really like the Australian Merino wool roving handpainted fiber in the violet, pale red, gray, gold, and spearmint colors.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/100373707/australian-merino-wool-roving-155-micron
It would make a beautiful finish line for the Tour de Fleece
Oooooh, I want to try some of that 15.5 micron merino in blues/greens
I'm in love with
Superfine Merino Roving - Handpainted Roving for Spinning or Felting and Australian Merino Wool Roving - 15.5 Micron - Handpainted Fiber for Spinning or Felting. The colours are so pretty.
Woolgatherings is one of my favorite fiber vendors. My current fave is: http://www.etsy.com/listing/92876348/bfl-wool-silk-roving-7030-handpainted
Love her photography and excellent customer service. The fiber sample package is also very very tempting. 24 breeds? Areyoukiddingme?!?
I love the Sparkle Merino Roving in orange, pink, purple, and blue. Very pretty! Ravelry = gussek
How can I only pick one? Okay, if I have to, I pick the blue/green one called "Australian Merino Wool Roving - 15.5 Micron - Handpainted Fiber for Spinning or Felting"
Sparkle Merino Roving - Handpainted Roving for Spinning or Felting - colours are lovely!
This may sound strange, but I love the way you photograph the roving in multiples.

I am a huge fan of Woolgatherings. Right now, one of my favorites in the shop is for the CTA spnalong: Polworth/Silk in the Starling colorway.
I've had my eye on the green/gold/brown/magenta/plum Australian merino for some time. I love her colour combos!
I love the fiber sample package since I just started spinning a few months ago, all of Woolgatherings stuff is wonderful!
Woolgatherings fiber is some of the first stuff I ever spun with. I've been meaning to get some more. I may have to get this: http://www.etsy.com/listing/101397848/pre-order-cta-spinalong-starling-in
YUMMY!
i love wool gatherings and have bought from them before. I love the australian merino wool!
OMBOB!!!! I am a die hard fan of Woolgatherings. Absolutely drool worthy and amazing to spin.
Seriously, her work is like crack of the most fluffy and gorgeous kind.
I love all the rich colors in the rovings, especially the gold/green/blue one.
So many gorgeous fibers and colors to choose from. However the 24 Breed Fiber Sampler really caught my eye!
Liked the 24 Breed Fiber Sampler on FB...
This is a very high quality site. I'll choose the BFL Wool/ Silk Roving (75/25)in turquoise, because it's my daughter's favorite color - but really, I'd take it all. :-)
I love the colors in Australian Merino Wool Roving - 15.5 Micron - Handpainted Fiber for Spinning or Felting
Oh, I love the mix green alpaca/silk roving.
I got no further than the 24 breed fiber sampler. I am putting that on my wish list... so many awesome breeds to try!
Pinned, tweeted and plurked!
That breed sampler is awesome, and not a bad price when you think about it. I've wanted to do a breed study for so long. I pinned this: http://pinterest.com/pin/78461218478571923/
And I just pinned the giveaway, too!
Oh I NEED WG sparkle merino for TDF... I have had her green/blue sparkle braid in my cart for ages... Just waiting for the right amount of spare $ to check out. T~T
I am gonna get the 24 breeds sampler when I get paid again!
I want the 24 breed fiber samples!
There is so much to love in that store! I love the Silk/ Polwarth Wool Roving in the dark and light blues!
Pinned the giveaway braid: http://pinterest.com/pin/83738874291864907/
I fell in love with "Starling" in Merino/Silk.
Oohhh love this one: Australian Merino Wool Roving - 15.5 Micron - Handpainted Fiber for Spinning or Felting
I'm a sucker for autumnal colorways like the green/red/brown/orange/yellow superfine merino one here.
thanks for the giveaway!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/101294563/sparkle-merino-roving-handpainted-roving
I think this colourway is gorgeous and would make a divine autumn shawl.
Also shared on my facebook!
Also shared on my twitter!
I love that 24-breed fiber sampler - I want it just the way it is, in that beautiful bowl, on a coffee table, so I can just fondle it at will - LOL
I choose BFL wool roving combed top.
I have been coveting the 24-breed wool sampler for months, and I very much covet the CTA/SAL colourways (all five please) on all the bases.
Very hard to pick which one I like the best, there's too many pretty's! D:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/100373676/australian-merino-wool-roving-155-micron Makes me think it will be like mints. :3
Love the merino, yak, silk blend.
For me, the 24 Breed Sampler is awesome. I've been drooling over it for almost a month now.
I like the fine merino roving in green, brown, red, and mango.
I bought stuff from this store only the other day and am being patient waiting for it to arrive (BFL in blues and golds)... I love the fact they sell Manx Loaghtan - as our heritage is in the Isle of Man. But I also love all the coloured fibers!!! So many good combinations!!!

I love so many colourways from there I couldn´t possibly pick a favourite.
I love so many things, I would love to try the Australian merino sometime. The giveaway braid is beautiful!
I love all the fibers in the CTA Spinalong colorway "Copper".
The super fine merino wool/silk blend in red orange yellow & pink is just gorgeous.
Wow, I think this is one of my new top favorite shops! The colors are gorgeous, and I love how the tops are photographed in many ways so you get an accurate idea of what the colors look like. I would have fun spinning so many of these, but I'll pick the "Fine Alpaca Roving" in Dye Lot: #ALT04181204 as my favorite... for now.
I tweeted! (User: MamaHobbit)

One of my favorites is the BFL Wool/ Silk Roving (70/30) - Handpainted Felting or Spinning Fiber. I love purple!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/93569989/bfl-wool-silk-roving-7030-handpainted
Pick one thing? Only one thing? That's going to be hard, I love so much from Woolgatherings. I've had the luxury of trying out a few things and I must say I love the alpaca braids. But I'm also anxious to try out the new sparkle merinos, so I'm going to go with this one: http://www.etsy.com/listing/101294563/sparkle-merino-roving-handpainted-roving

Ok I think I got them all. lol
I keep meaning to order the Finnish wool sampler; I've never spun with it but I think it would make a lovely gift of handspun for my Finn hubby's grandmother!
Love all the handpainted fiber and yarns, but the Gotland wool roving! So beautiful and elegant!
I pinned it too!
The merino/yak/silk undyed roving. It's a gorgeous gray; I can only imagine how lush it is!
I constantly have stuff from this store in my etsy favorites, one I have my eye on is a polwarth fiber with colors of white, raspberry, royal blue, and violet.
I love the feather polwarth!
I love the 24 breed sampler!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/100373707/australian-merino-wool-roving-155-micron ...love this one! :)
Wool Gatherings makes such pretty, pretty things! My favorites are the natural black alpaca blended with silk, and the BFL-silk top in the plums and periwinkles!
Ilike the merino sparkle in blue/teal/purple.
I've been on a green kick lately, had my eye on the Alpaca/ Silk Roving - Hand Painted Roving for Spinning or Felting in shades of green-it's in my cart waiting for payday!
Oh, boy, would I like to get my hands on the luxury fiber sampler! That looks like a ton of fun!
I love all of the products listed in her store, but this one BFL roving I have to have in colorway of teal, purple, and cranberry so yummy!
ooooh.. the mixed BFL in toffee/avacado/sky blue is just amazing! I've not seen this shop before. It's amazing!!
I love the blue green color way of merino, alpaca and silk roving.. such pretty photography!
The 24 breed sampler is awesome!
I love her shop, her colorways are really rich, just they way that i like them! I already have her 24 Breed Fiber Sampler - Undyed Roving for Spinning or Felting in my favorites! so, i am saving my fiber allowance for that future purchase!
Woolgatherings has beautiful fibers, I'd love to try 24 Breed Fiber Sampler - Undyed Roving for Spinning or Felting. Also all the others coloured ones are amazing!

So many beautiful colors! I like the Superfine Merino Wool/ Mulberry Silk Roving in the yellow, orange, pink and red colorway.
My favorite is the Camel/ Merino Wool/ Cultivated Silk Roving (40/40/20) in all those lovely reddish shades.
Do I have to pick just one?? I have dozens of Woolgatherings rovings on my Etsy wish list, she's one of my favourite dyers. One of my latest favourites is the mixed BFL in teal, purple and cranberry that was added to the shop yesterday. But the sparkle Merino in orange, pink, purple and blue looks just so yummy too. And then there are the other 30 on my list...
I love sparkle - The colors are so vibrant. LOVE
I like Australian Merino Wool Roving - 15.5 Micron - Handpainted Fiber for Spinning or Felting in the grape-y like colors, purples, greens, a little yellow. The image is http://img0-llalt.etsystatic.com/000/0/5545755/il_fullxfull.340824872.jpg

This one.
I want to felt it into cushion cover o3o
Love the polwarth/silk in the cornflower blue, sky blue, teal, and spearmint colorway. Very calm and lovely!
I would love to treat myself to the 24 breed sampler package. What a wonderful thing this would be to do for the Tour.
There's a gorgeous set of green & gold BFL roving that I covet. Or the Luxury Fiber Sampler. Tempting.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/101843485/mixed-bfl-wool-roving-hand-dyed-roving I'm loving this BFL roving, it's totally my colors.

Colors in this roving include teal, purple, pink, and pale orange.
just gorgeous how the colors work together!! Love it :))
beachfibres@yahoo.com
So hard to choose just one thing, with so many lovelies. All of the hand painted fibers are gorgeous, but I really love the silver alpaca/tussah silk roving. It reminds me of moonlight, or quicksilver. Very magical.
Love the shetland humbug! And I'm also partial to the silver alpaca/tussah silk roving. I'd love to spin that on my drop spindle - very soothing!
oh my, there really are way too many beautiful things over in that shop! I suppose I would have to pick this for now - http://www.etsy.com/listing/101843485/mixed-bfl-wool-roving-hand-dyed-roving
Yikes, I want like half of that store! But I'd be good with the 24 Breed Sampler (Undyed Roving). Or just about any of the dyed alpaca rovings.
I love all the samplers. So many natural rovings, wow.
I like the luxury fiber sampler - always wanted to try yak!
The grey 8 oz fiber of gotland wool is delish!!
I love the red, purple, and grey of the BFL/ SeaCell Roving - Handpainted Spinning Fiber.
I can't pick just one favorite thing from this shop, all of the colors are beautiful, all the fibers look absolutely soft and squishy. Everything she sells is just gorgeous
Ooooooooh, the Luxury Fiber Sampler. Six dishes of luscious luxury. I'd love to dig into them!
wow. i loved so many things in this shop. i have made it a favorite on etsy and will be buying some just as soon as i save up some more moolah! i get rather bored of spinning sometimes on my spindle so i tend to gravitate towards neat and chaotic colorways. plenty in this shop! here's one i particularly loved: http://www.etsy.com/listing/98655362/superfine-merino-wool-tussah-silk-roving
I love all the colors, but the luxury fibers sampler pack makes me want to imitate my cat and smush my face against all the soft smooshiness.
The sampler package is decadent!
I love the colors on the merino roving. It's so gorgeous.
