Gale's Art Sock Yarn Giveaway!

I was tickled pink (excuse the pun!) to be able to drop a full sized skein of Gale's Art "Pigs in Space" yarn in a box in December! As I said in the video, I'm not much of a pink person, but I would totally wear some socks made with this yarn. It just works!

I was so struck by Gale's artistry that I purchased some "Swirl BFL" fiber from her shop she had named "Pretty Pretty". Though it looked pretty in the photo- it is rare that I gasp audibly when I open my fibery packages. It was not just pretty, but beautiful!! So artfully dyed and all the colors flowed together as if it grew on the sheep that way! Tucked inside my purchase was a beautiful tussah silk sample- the shiniest and softest tussah silk I have *ever* seen! I will certainly be back for more- and very soon!

We're giving away this beautiful "Pigs in Space" skein of sock yarn dyed by Gales Art to a lucky commentor! Visit Gale's Shop, find something you like, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner tomorrow so be sure and you get those extra entries by twittering/facebook/blogging about this giveaway!

Thank you Gale, for once again for showing us why your shop is called "Gale's Art" and not just "Gale's Yarn and Fiber!"

Susan's Kitchen Batt giveaway!

For our Aurora Borealis and Beyond box, Susan's Kitchen sent in the most sparkly and delicious batts!

Susan has much more in her repertoire- stitch markers, roving braids, and sock yarn. Ahhh yes! The sock yarn! It's currently 30% off in her shop right now! You know you need some ;)

You probably will be taking back that Chia Pet you got for Christmas, right? Treat yourself to some fibery goodness at Susan's shop!

While you're there... find something you like and come back and tell us all about it in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner for this gorgeous batt later in the week! Be sure and tweet and facebook about this to get extra entries- let us know you did it!

Thank you Susan for contributing your luscious drum carded goodness to the December box. I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

December Video!

Smoky Mountain Fibers Saturn Giveaway!

I hope everyone knows by now that our theme for December's box is "Aurora Borealis and Beyond". I want everyone to also know that our AnneMarie from SmokyMountainFibers has been ahead of the game for a while! She has a lot of celestial inspired fibers in her shop.

One of the prettiest planetary inspired rovings is her "Saturn" colorway, and that is what she's sent in for us to sample in December. It's bright and warm and would be the perfect spin-by-the-fire you need during the dark winter nights ahead!

We're giving away 3 oz of this beautifully saturated hand dyed roving today! Just visit Smoky Mountain Fibers (why not pick a few things up while you're there!) find something you like, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a name on Saturday, so be sure and twitter/facebook/blog about this giveaway to get extra entries.

AnneMarie, Thank you so much for offering us a sample of this deliciousness!! It's out of this world! (sorry, I just had to)
