This was one of the shining stars of the May box! A beautiful, shiny, sparkling batt from
The Critter Ranch called "Frisian Pegasus". It contains baby alpaca, llama, tencel and firestar and is so dark, dark, and pretty :)
The Critter Ranch is so full of fibery goodness, I am getting a little short of breath looking at it all! :) Lovely, lovely things to play with there!

The 'True Black' mill spun alpaca is beautiful - so shiny and soft-looking!
I *adore* the posted batt most of all - after all, I ordered more once I saw the sample in my box! Of the items currently in the shop, I like the merino/bamboo/silk fiber in the lavender/peaches colorway. Thanks for the giveaway chance!
Oh my god, the Spinning batt -- Pop culture 2, it's so delicious! Great mix of brown and blues! X3
Facebook'd! Have a nice day everyone!
I love the Critter Ranch! Love her Llama so any of the batts with Llama in it is good for me :)
Mm that combed top in Sweet Peppers is so bright and beautiful.
I loe the Barn Dance Art Batt in yellow, blue and some green. The Critter Ranch has absolutely fabulous fiber.

Love the Leather Chaps combed top
I am going to be a sucker here... but the Frisian Pegasus is by far my favorite. I've been petting and loving the sample I got since the day I got it... I just spun it up, and oh my goodness, the black paired with the shiny is amazing. I just wish I could have ordered some when it was up in the shop and when I had more money!

I LOVE the colors in this batt, beautiful.
You are spot on with the Frisian Pegasus, out to steal my heart! I also love the Diamonds & Turquoise...after all...around this house Turquoise is a girls best friend ;)
Thank you for the chance!
at the moment Leather Chaps and Ice Wine are my favourite colourway :)
I loved the handspun mini skeins (so much so that I bought them, lol). I am deep in mini mania, working on a sock yarn blanket. These are the first handspun minis I've run across, great idea!
Edit* iPad slip up caused me to delete my first post, oops, sorry. :s
I just spun a lovely skein of Falkland from The Critter Ranch in a colorway that's irresistable - "Trouble"!! It's gorgeous and squishy.
Barn Dance, Tooth Fairy & Forget Me Knots are my favourites right now. Gorgeous! I <3 the Critter Ranch.
I love the Blue Skies BFL! Such great blues.
I'm all for the Peanut Butter and Jelly batt. I like how she brings to light the visual appeal of the combination of colors. I hadn't thought about it before. And now that I have, I'm hungry.
I like the Summer Peppers Shetland & also the beautiful giveaway batt.
I love the mud pie roving (alpaca and Shetland is a wonderful fiber combination).
I had to buy the handpainted lambs locks in rose, blue, and lavender, the curls were just to tempting!
The Frisian Pegasus is absolutely beautiful, but I also really like Pop Culture with its turquoise and coppery orange combo. That was my favorite, but there were several runner ups :)
Also pinned to pinterest.
Home grown, Mud Pie...looks like so much fun and better yet, all natural! and the frisian pegasus is stunning!
Super pretty! :D Man I want some of that sweet action.

Love, love, love the Spinning fiber, Combed Top, Roving Falkland Hand dyed in Leather Chaps.
I got a sample of this spinning batt in my phat fiber box, and this stuff spins like a dream, and the way the colors looked when I was done were just amazing. It was solid black, until the light shined on it and then you could see all the beautiful colors!! I want another one of these so badly. This batt would have to be my most favorite thing in her shop, even if it isnt in there anymore!
I am in love with this... http://www.etsy.com/listing/88788494/roving-spinning-fiber-combed-top-hand
The Merino, bamboo, dyed with Jolly Candy :) Beautiful...
I'm loving this one: www.etsy.com/listing/95105081/spinning-fiber-roving-hand-pulled-hand.
I'm in full tilt summer mode loving watching my toddler discover the joys of warm weather and having the freedom to just go and do things with him. And the bright colours capture that summer spirit.
I have so many favorites! I think the colors in the combed top are amazing, but the batts are really calling my name. I don't have much experience spinning batts. I think my favorite is the Wild Flowers color!
Tooth fairy fiber batt. Nommy.
that antique roses color is just gorgeous!!!
