The Critter Ranch Sand and Sea Batt Giveaway!







I was so elated when Sue from The Critter Ranch decided to re-create these batts! I think they are just so clever. They are called "Sand and Sea" and the sand part is llama, alpaca, and firestar and the sea portion is a wool and alpaca blend.

If you have never been to The Critter Ranch, when you visit today, you'll feel like you have been missing out! It is just bursting with hand dyed goodies, batts, rovings, handspun, knitted items and a lot more. Get ready to spend a while looking through all the pages!

If you'd like to be entered to win this drawing, please visit The Critter Ranch shop today, find something you love, and write about it in the comments below. We'll be counting pinterest pins, facebook updates, twitter tweets etc as extra entries! Just let us know you did it.

    "Leather Chaps" is gorgeous. I never thought of combining the grey with the other colors. I'd love to see how this spins out.
