Hilltop Cloud BFL/Seacell fiber giveaway!

Hilltop Cloud is quickly becoming one of my favorite phatties. I always look forward to the next creative submission to Phat Fiber from Katie each month. May's "Black Ships before Troy" completely blew me away! Such a gorgeous, moody blue on a beautiful BFL/Seacell base! We're giving this braid away! Please visit Hilltop Cloud, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll count social networking as extra entries, so please help us spread the word!

  13. As usual, all the stuff from the people you pick is all so goregous! I am constantly seeing new people because of you guys.

    If I had to pick something, I would pick either the pot luck roving, batts, and singles for a funky sock yarn or the British Breed Spinning fiber so I can learn about different types of sheep.
