Quaere Fibre Chocolate Kisses Sock Yarn giveaway!





So, I mentioned that hugging handspun yarn could make your day yesterday. I think hoarding indie dyed sock yarn comes in a close second to that. Notice that you need not know how to use either yarn for it to imbue delight. Quaere Fibre is full of delightful yarn to enjoy!

This giveaway yarn is called "Chocolate Kisses" but you can see, it's much more on the kisses side, than the chocolate. I love it! Well, there isn't much in the entire Quaere Fibre shop that I don't love!

If you'd like a chance to win this sock yarn, please visit Quaere Fibre today, find something you love, and write about it in the comment section below. We'll count your social networking about this as extra entries- just let us know where you spread the word!

Hilltop Cloud Crocus Batts Giveaway!






Would you agree, that part of what makes visiting the Hilltop Cloud Etsy shop a wonderful experience is the strong sense of place you feel when you click through? I just love it when I find a shop where I can buy something from a real place, a real person, who made something with real hands.

With Hilltop Cloud there is so much to choose from, too! All of the products seem to have  cohesive earthy tones, and natural textures to them. I can see how most everything could probably be used together in a project. This is one of the beautiful things about purchasing materials from a particular artist- their sensibilities tend to shine through in their work- and I consider this a very good thing!

Whatever words I come up with to describe this Inglenook Fibers batt, are going to be inadequate. It's beautiful. It makes me think of a painting, the colors just work so well together!

Rebel Yarn Lace and Pattern giveaway!!







It's been a while since we've featured Rebel Yarn on the blog! I'm always happy to do so, because it gives me an excuse to visit her Etsy shop! We've got a special giveaway today with this gorgeous Melanie-dyed lace yarn and specially written for Rebel Yarn shawl pattern called "Diamonds and Diagonals by Kuduja!

You can tell that Rebel Yarn is run by a knitter of lace! I feel like knitted lace is best shown using semi-solids, like the ones Melanie stocks in her shop. Sometimes, there is enough going on with the stitches without needing any added color interest.
