Hilltop Cloud blended fiber giveaway!
I am always so impressed with the samples that come in from Hilltop Cloud! The quality of Katie's fiber is top notch. This particular fiber is so lovely, because it's called "Robin" and it really makes me think feathery bird!
This giveaway fiber is a beautiful combed BFL, Merino, Manx and Yak! It's sooo nice! Looks like there are several more of this fiber blend in the Hilltop Cloud shop! I think one of the best things about Hilltop Cloud is the selection of rare British Sheep breed fiber. It's perfect for self study, as you can order several from one supplier- in the U.K.- who has in some cases, a repertoire with the farms where the fiber was raised.
If you would like to be entered to win this pretty fiber, please visit Hilltop Cloud today, and choose an item listed in the shop to comment about here on this post. We'll award extra entries to those who share on other social networking platforms!

I love the colors in the "Orange Spinning Fiber, Merino, Shetland, Finn, Alpaca Moorhen 100 grmas in the Birds Collection". I think it would make a beautiful fall projects with those colors, greens, orange, browns, rust.
I love the Queens Collection...especially Katherine of Aragon, Jayne Seymour, and Anne Boleyn.
Love the Lilac Spinning Fiber - Handblended Combed Top! How did I not see this one before?
To go along with the bird theme, I'd like to call out "Kingfisher". Gorgeous!

I am in love with the Lilac Spinning Fiber that contains,BFL, Merino & Seacell. It looks so soft and dreamy.
Oh, my! I love hilltopcloud! all of katie's fibers are so pretty and soft! Next time I order from her, I think I will try one of those creamy whites. Maybe the Cheviot or Dorset Horn since I've never spun those before!

I love the red hand blended combed top.
Also love Black Welsh Mountain Spinning Fiber 100g Top Roving
I want the Roving, Shetland,Merino, Sea Cell - Bleak Midwinter, 100g so badly I could burst. IF it's still in the shop at this time tomorrow, I deserve a Self Control Cookie.
Everything is just lovely and the rare breeds are wildly tempting... would love to spin up the "Lilac Spinning Fiber- Handblended Combed Top, BFL, Merino, Seacell" though!
I love them all as well as all colors but i would really love to try the BFL Alpaca roving or the Jacob/bamboo blend.
Sounds fabulous!

All the carded batts have great colors. I would have a very hard time choosing just one.
This is my favorite that she has right now. Carded Batt- Purple Spinning Fiber- Shetland, Tussah Silk 100g 1698. I have ordered from her before. Her fiber is amazing.
I can't stop staring at the beaded handspun yarns, especially this aqua one: http://www.etsy.com/listing/160869214/beaded-handspun-yarn-out-at-sea-76g-239m I'm not sure I could pick a favorite roving... they are all so beautiful!
I ordered the British Breed Spinning Fiber Sampler, 9 different natural shades of wool, 135g
I tweeted.
Purple Spinning Fiber- Merino, Shetland, Bamboo, Firestar, Katherine of Aragon, 100g, Queens Collection
I really want that one! I love purples. And I'm really intrigued by Henry's Wives and their stories.
Hand dyed Teeswater Silk - in that beautiful bright blue! I want to try spinning it on my Charkha!

I've been eyeing the best of British breeds sampler. Yum
Oh, wow...the Hand Dyed Teeswater/Silk in Black/ Pink/ Purple? To DIE for! just gorgeous! :-)
Though I am not worthy, the Shetland/Tussah silk in the blue needs to be mine. Maybe the pale green. Okay, the lilac.
And not to oversell, but my name happens to be Robin...
Oohh I love this purple batt: https://www.etsy.com/listing/162364047/carded-batt-purple-spinning-fiber?ref=shop_home_active
Holy moly! I love the spindle cases! So cute! Ordering one.
The Teeswater/Silk combed top in Purple is really beautiful. And I don't usually like purple!
No question it's

OMG- I LOVE the Jane Seymour fiber!!!
I like the lavender color batts with BFL and silk-they look wonderful.
I would love to get my hands on the gray Jacob roving.
I love that she always has wool from breeds that are new to me. Captivated by "dorset horn wool", sounds rugged and exotic at the same time!
i've had my eye on the baby camel/ silk blend in coral and light brown.

Normally I'd go for one of Katies rainbows but I've been blending a bit recently and I quite fancy some of her dyed firestar!
Firestar- Hand Dyed Trilobal, Orange, Rust, 20g 1597
ALSO shared on my Facebook!
I love the green fire star fibers. I'm deliberating on how and what to blend for spinning, and I'm,m always drawn to greens!
Katie has some extraordinary and unusual fibers, but I particularly love the Turquoise Spinning Fiber mix of Merino, Shetland and Llama, called "Peacock" in the Birds Collection!
The Queens collection looks lovely, especially Katherine of Aragon.
I love the purple and coral colorways. Gorgeous!
I like the spindle kit. Actually, I like everything in the shop!

SO much love for Katie's work!
I have a special want in my heart for a complete set of her Queens collection, but especially the Jane Seymour and Anne of Cleeves.
I can't go past the gorgeous 'Carded Batt- Blue Spinning Fiber- BFL', the length of BFL and it's shine with the silk is something else - begging to be spun laceweight!
