Friends in Fiber Gradient Dyed roving giveaway!

I have a confession. I almost kept this roving for myself! A few weeks ago, I ordered a green version of this, and Jan and Peg being the sweet women they are, threw this one in the box for me to 'Do what I want with it". Now, the inner hoarder in me grabbed this lovely raspberry colored merino/silk, sat in the corner clutching it and hissed at anyone who walked by. But, I eventually came to realize, if everyone knew how great Friends in Fiber is, maybe I'd be able to get these gradients in every color!

We're giving away this 4 oz of merino/silk expertly dyed in a Fibonacci sequence from Friends in Fiber. To enter to win, simply visit Friends in Fiber, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll draw for a winner later in the week, so you'll have time to let everyone on Facebook, twitter, plurk etc know about this awesome giveaway and gain extra entries by doing so!

Garilynn Spin to Knit One Thousand Cranes Kit Giveaway!

Garilynn has done it again! She's created an adorable knit pattern , and this time for a cause! Since the earthquake in Japan, many fiber artists have wanted to join efforts in some way to help. Gari is a member of the "1,000 cranes" group on Ravelry where the members are creating cranes to raise awareness and funds for the Tsunami/Earthquake victims.

We're very proud that our own Garilynn has created the knit pattern and is donating profits for the relief effort!

Three Fates Yarn Yarn giveaway!

Here is a chance to try Three Fates Yarn, in their beautiful "platinum" base which is a BFL superwash. I really like how round this yarn is- I think you will too!

I believe this is the first time we've featured Three Fates Yarn on the blog!! We're giving away 2 oz of Stefania's sock yarn with a full set of adorable butterfly stitch markers. Warmer weather is upon us (unless you're in the southern hemisphere) and that means you should knit socks!

We're giving away this 1/2 skein of sock yarn today! We'd also really love to know what your favorite thing in Three Fates Yarn is, so visit this shop and let us know in the comments section below what that is! We'll award extra entries for facebook and twitter updates too!

Spinatude Butterfly Spindle Giveaway!

We did a spindle giveaway from Spinatude last week, but if you'll look at the shop now, it's almost entirely different! This is what I love about shopping handmade! You're special, you deserve a special spindle!

Our theme last month was Butterflies and Flutterbys and Laurel sent in beautiful floral buttons as well as this spindle to give away. If you don't see exactly what you're looking for in a spindle, don't hesitate to contact her about creating something unique for you!

We're giving away this beautiful butterfly spindle today! Just visit Spinatude, find something that you love, and write about it in the comments section below. Be sure and post on facebook and twitter for extra entries!!

Northstar Alpacas Suri Yarn giveaway!

You can't tell the absolute squishiness from this photo- but Northstaralpacas is the definition of soft. Northstaralpacas has babysoft alpaca yarn- millspun and handspun and it's just an amazing treat for your needles. If you haven't tried any yet, you're really missing out!!

I love that with every purchase, you get a picture card of the animal that the fiber is from. Maple's Alpacas are more like pets, with names and personalities. Every purchase made goes directly toward the care and feeding of these animals.

We're giving away this beautiful Suri/Huacaya alpaca yarn from "Polaris". It's 250 yards of worsted weight goodness!! Please visit Northstaralpacas today, find something you love, and write about it in the comments section below.
