NorthstarAlpacas Natural Alpaca roving giveaway!






Looks like another big blast of winter weather is blowing across the western part of the country! Though, it's sunny here at PF HQ right now, we've got nasty weather in the forecast, so I'm looking forward to fondling some fluffy fiber- how about you? I think Northstar Alpacas is the perfect cold-weather fluff to play with- especially this natural white from the dashing Iron Man!

Visit Northstar Alpacas today, find something you love, write about it in the comment section below and be entered to win the lovely 4 oz of natural alpaca roving! We will reward your extra social networking with entries- just let us know whether you've retweeted/facebooked/pinned/plurked/googleplussed... :)

    Oh my, the blue and white swirl alpaca roving is pretty! I bet it would spin up just beautifully.

    Highs in the 70s a couple weeks ago and now we have SNOW! WTF, Weather Gods? I know I've been fondling some sheepy stuff today because of that. But oh, some Alpaca stuff would be even better. I love North Star Alpacas, their customer service is the best! They shorted my 4 oz of fiber once so when they sent it they included an extra 4 oz! Woah!

    Maple's new batts that have angora in them just look good enough to eat. Just add a little whipped cream topping.
