The Homestead Hobbyist Giveaway

The Homestead Hobbyist sent us this amazing fluff for giveaway. This amazing fluff is called "Suit Up, It's A Mess In There" and part of Ken's Crime Scene Collection. The color is a little off (too much light) in my photos, but you can see his photos HERE:

Superfine 18.5 Micron Merino 37.5%, Shetland 37.5%, Mulberry Silk 25%


This is wonderfully soft and a beautifully dark blend. I think you'll love this. The Savage blends says: Fibers Ruthlessly Blended for your Spinning Pleasure.

Blue Barn Fiber Giveaway

These are a fun new product from Blue Barn Fiber. These are called Fluff Stacks.

Holly from Blue Barn says: We will have an exciting shop update in a couple of weeks, with a really fun new product line. I don't want to give too much away, but it will be called "Fluff Stacks" and will include some hand dyed firestar, similar to what we sent for the November box (in addition to a lot of other awesome goodies!).


These gorgeous stacks of 8 oz of color are not yet available in their shop yet. They are soon to be released! You get the first crack at getting one of these amazing fluffy piles of wonderful fiber.


The goodies in this huge sampler are a $50 value. I really really wanted to "forget" to list this giveaway and put it in my fiber stash. I'm in love with the concept as well as the beautiful fibers inside. WOOHOO! We're so LUCKY <3

Winner of our Benefit Giveaway and the start to more giveaways!

Thank you so much. You all warm my heart. My dad is very close to the minimum goal to buy a new scooter for my brother. He will keep the campaign going until he has what he needs. I appreciate each and every one of you. I wish I could afford to send you each a big fluff package. For this fluffy giveaway, typed each name into our giveaway tool to pull a winner.

The lucky winner this time is Margaret S!

I will send her a note now to get her information and send this gift out. Again, thank you all for donating to my brother's campaign. I will share a picture when he gets his new scooter.

Now, let's get started with our next EIGHT giveaways from our contributors.

Willow Fairy Wool sent us this gorgeous fiber for giveaway. This is 100% merino fiber. That means that it's soft. Very soft. If you spin this into a fine two ply, you can make a wonderful winter hat with this roving.


This super soft fluff will bring you pleasure as you spin it up. You can spin it as a long gradient from one color to another or you can maybe do a fractal spin with this colorway. This is beautiful and soft.... win/win.



Here is our "entry form" for our first giveaway.

Giveaways Soon and One More Benefit Giveaway

I'm going to do one more giveaway to support the fund raiser for my brother. When I was cleaning out the studio for the End of Year Studio Sale I found my stash of an Indian Wedding Fluff Box! I purchased this one for me to spin up, but I haven't gotten around to it so let's give it away.

This kit is a $55 value and has over 10 full ounces from our collaborators. It's absolutely beautiful.



This box is just fluff, and it almost doesn't fit in the boxes!

Blue Barn Fiber - 1 oz rose fiber & 1 oz milk fiber
Luthvarian Fiber Arts - 2 oz rolags
The Wooly Witch  - 2 oz rolags
The Golden Threads - 2 oz locks
not shown in the pic:
Wonderland Fiber - 1 oz hand-painted lincoln locks & 1 oz fluffy small farm wool batt with Angelina

For this one, just comment on this post that you donated. Even $1 helps. We're hoping to get his wheels by xmas, and we are half way there (more than half depending on which scooter my dad goes with). You can also email me directly that you donated if you'd like to keep your donation more anonymous (crys at polyartgirl dot net) Donate here: https://givetaxfree.org/campaigns/daniels-life/ I will end this giveaway on Saturday morning the 17th so that the box can arrive at it's new home by Christmas.

We will start the remaining giveaways at the end of the week when this one ends. To give you a nice little preview of what our contributors sent in to give away:

A Willow Fairy Wool Hand Dyed Roving:

A Fairy Tale Wool Loopy Lucy Tool and soft Travel Bag:

Our Winner! Daniel's campaign update

I wanted to take a moment to thank you all for donating. We are so lucky to have such wonderful customers and contributors. We decided to send Brittany a box because of her wonderful little classes contribution to the cause. They raised $121 for my brother.

Dad has been doing some research and he found a new electric scooter for a lot less than the one he originally purchased. He's more than half way to being able to purchase a new scooter for Daniel. As I write this his campaign is at $906. His new scooter will be $1995 so he only needs to raise $1009 more. That is a lot better than when we started. 

I really appreciate all the warm thoughts and the donations. Like most siblings, my brother drives me a little nuts sometimes, but knowing he won't be stuck at home when there is so much more world to explore is a joy. 

Okay, for our winner! We did a random generator:
That means that Cityslingers is our winner! Please send me a note with your email and mailing addresses so that I can drop your Phat box in the mail ASAP! 

I will start our regular giveaways for the month of December in the next few days. We have some beautiful fluff, yarn, and tools to giveaway. Thanks again for joining me in this little holiday gift. Sending you all lots of love and warm thoughts,
