The green carded batt is so pretty! I love spinning woolen, and I think it would make a wonderful pair of soft, fluffy mitts or a cowl.
The alpaca plus carded batt is beautiful!
After exploring some of the items I really love this listing http://www.etsy.com/listing/110001306/cria-alpaca-fleece-golden-brown-from-mr
I was struck by the way they talk about their animals, and talk about the good energy in the fleece and the personal traits of their alpacas. You can tell they love what they do and love their animals!
The natural colours are lovely. I'm drawn to the Mahogany Brown Suri and Huacaya Alpaca Roving especially...
Periwinkle + Handspun = Hurrah!
love the blue and lilac yarns!
Love the color in the Dusty Rose Fingerless Mittens!
So many beautiful things. I am drawn to the CVM Wool and Black Suri Alpaca Roving.
Love the Blue Alpaca Knit Fingerless Gloves! Such a pretty color! (beautiful horse too!!)
<3 Charcoal Gray Suri and Huacaya Blend Roving
I like the rustic look of the handspun brown alpaca and angora bunny yarn. Also, I imagine it's amazingly soft and squishy!
I love the Alpaca / Cormo Handdyed Yarn for Knitting, Crochet, and Felting - Burgundy - 250 yards - DK Weight
Pinned and tweeted too.
I adore the green carded batt for spinning. It looks so squishably soft.
I was really drawn to the Charcoal Gray Suri and Huacaya Blend Roving. Looks like it would be fun to spin.
I love the colors on the February Phat Batt ^.^ Very pretty.
I like the green baby alpaca and cormo.

I love the green in the alpaca/merino yarn!
I love the colors in Hand dyed Jade Baby Alpaca Yarn
North Star Alpacas is one of my two go-to shops for fiber. I love them! Their customer service is amazing because the shop is run by such wonderful people.
Love the colors in the Suri/Huacaya handspund yarn (Salmon & Sky Blue). Rich and earthy. Not to mention beautiful.
Lately I've been looking more into natural colours for a stranded project. I'd love to spin up some of their 4 colours of alpaca rovings.
I really like the deep purple dyed alpaca fiber
I love all of her alpaca fleece. The grey suri is my favorite!
Many hearts to the golden cria fiber
But...but...I LOVE alpaca, how am I supposed to choose? I'll go with the hand dyed jade baby alpaca yarn. The only thing better than alpaca is baby alpaca.
Alpaca Roving - Suri and Huacaya - Green and Brown - June Phat Contribution - it is soooo nice, I want to try it...
Love the worsted weight baby alpaca in teal, so pretty.
I like the hand dyed Jade baby alpacea yarn in worsted weight.
love the alpaca/merino yarn in samon,blue, and yellow. Pinned it, too.
I like the blue overdyed Alpaca roving. Very pretty.
I'm going to go with the fawn roving this time...but, a usual, my favorite thing about North Star Alpacas is the way Maple cares for her animals. I have recommended her fiber to many vegan and animal-conscious spinners for a long time because she clearly lives as a caretaker and companion to her beautiful alpacas.
The Shades of Gray Roving sampler is delicious! I pinned it here: http://pinterest.com/pin/411797959647279778/
CVM Wool and Black Suri Alpaca Roving looks gorgeous.

I like the Natural Brown Mill Spun Alpaca Yarn - 250 yards - Worsted Weight - Sonata.
I have just purchased a drop spindle & had my 1st lesson on a wheel & as you have guessed, I am a real novice. It would be so lovely to have some wonderful fibre to spin making my experience one of the best I could ever.
Really love the Phat Fiber carded batt :)
Dyed alpaca fleece! Somehow I've never spun dyed alpaca. Must do this.

I like the Baby Alpaca Yarn - Hand Dyed Halloween or Hunter Orange - 175 yards - Worsted Weight.
Hope I'm not too late to enter! I'm in love with NorthStar Alpacas right now, and I will definitely be needing the green and brown fleece. Too bad I wasn't a PF member in June!
I love the four natural colors sample pack. I'm just getting into spinning and love the feel of alpaca, would love to spin these and ply them together.
