Fiber Christmas Haul

If you weren't there, you should have been. A great time was had by all!

I practiced a lot of restraint this year, but not enough that I can get the pictures all in one post, so there will definitely be a follow-up. Despite the fact that I don't spin that often, I stuck to mainly roving this year for the bang-for-your-buck factor. And I have LOTS of yarn, but not that much roving.

I got the blue above and the grey bamboo below from Weavery at Indian Meridian. Very luscious feeling.

The pretty colors above were dyed by Angora Jane.

And the natural roving above is from Lowder Colours. Very awesome.

And another set of pretty colors by Angora Jane.

I had a great time yesterday and the day before with everyone at Fiber Christmas. Kate, Bridgette, Rori, Kelli, Megan, and everyone else.

I can't wait to play with all my new things. And next year will be just as awesome! See the next post for the rest of my haul.

GIVEAWAY!!!

As many of you know, I love working with hand dyed yarn. I especially love Farm Girl Fiber yarn! Bridgette has an eye for color and has a lot of fun with what she does. That is why I am so super thrilled that Farm Girl Fiber is sponsoring this giveaway in honor of my opening an etsy shop! Before the goods, a recap: I made this Acorn Head hooded cowl for myself on Christmas this year. I've known pretty much since I bought the yarn exactly what it was going to be, I just had to find time to do it. This cowl was out of my FGF birthday yarn! You can't tell in the picture, but it has just this hind of sparkle to it. Love! I made 2 of these for two different swaps and I really wish I had made and kept one for myself while she still had the yarn! It was so super soft and super bulky and fantastic! Sometimes Farm Girl Fiber has very limited lots of things, so if you find something you love, you really need to snatch it up. ...

More Partying

Joining in with Tickle Me Tuesday! I hope I'm not overloading you, but it's fun to party ;-) I love this apron , but being a non-pinky, I wish it was blue. These amazing soaps . Yes, I said soaps!!! I can't stop looking at them. One of these days I have to give in and order some. I want this dress sooooo bad. feminine, country, old fashioned... love. These potholders belong in my coffee themed kitchen. I gaze at them often. So, those are just a few things tickling my fancy. Sundresses are also tickling my fancy, if it would only get warm! Go visit the party and see what is tickling everyone else's fancy today!
