A Star is Shorn Giveaway

Okay, I'm playing catch up! There are four remaining giveaways from April that I will list. Then I will start listing the gorgeous giveaways from the May box contributors. I will end these giveaways in about two weeks! They'll be a mid box sale batch of giveaways.


This first one is from A Star is Shorn. It is called a Starsheep Braid in the colorway Thunderclouds. This is 60/40 Polwarth/Silk and is 3.1 oz. This looks like it would be wonderful to spin. Personally, I love wool and silk blends for spinning fine.


It's so soft, and it's not felted at all. You're going to love working with these fibers.





How do I win?! FIRST sign in on the giveaway widget above. You'll be given several options to gain entries to the giveaway.

The first, and only mandatory entry, is that you will go to A Star is Shorn find something you love then come back here and comment about it.

You can gain an additional entry for each of the following: "hearting" the A Star is Shorn Etsy Store, tweeting about the giveaway, or pinning a photo of the roving on Pinterest.

You will earn three additional entries for making a purchase in the A Star is Shorn Etsy Store and sharing the transaction ID.

We have four remaining giveaways from our April contributors, be sure to enter all of them! These will close on June 9th, and I will announce the winners on June 10th. Thank you for supporting our independent artists.

Beautiful items and such lovely wonderful exciting names :-) half of my loving an item comes from the name it's called. Like Wishsong, Pussywillow toes and fortune teller. Love them :-)

I really like Starsheep Braids: Honey. I've been on a real yellow kick and I love that tone. It would make a beautiful shawl.
