ReplyDeleteI also love the ingenious spindle cases! Definitely on my wish list!
All of the fibers are beautiful, but the handmade wood buttons are just so unique.
ReplyDeleteI love that she incorporates so many varied British wools into her shop, like those found in the British Breed Spinning Sampler. It's also really helpful to see the selection of nine natural colors of four different breeds (after spinning and knitting) as a really classic colorwork hat in her friend's pattern.
ReplyDeletei love the bfl and seacell the purple one.
ReplyDeleteI love the BFL camel spinning fiber.
ReplyDeleteI love Katie's fiber so much - it's nearly impossible to choose just one (which is why her breed samplers are incredible!).
ReplyDeleteThis time, my favorite is the Manx Loaghtan fleece. OMG and it's washed for that price. Total love.
Pinned, tweeted, and plurked too.
