I am almost finished with my June Phat Fiber Superbox spinning. I won this box in June for purchases I made from contributors to the June Phat Fiber box. This box had fiber and yarn samples, some full size batts, a project bag, full size yarn, a spindle, and patterns in it. It was like a huge fiber explosion! I was thrilled to win it, because I NEVER win anything. I took all of the yarn samples, ran it through my winder and now have a huge ball of cool looking yarns. I started crocheting already...we will see what I end up with. :) I decided to spin the fiber and filled up one, two, and am now working on my 3rd jumbo bobbin! I am loving the chance to spin every kind of fiber that you could think of!! So far my favorite to spin was the cotswold! It's such a sturdy fiber!!
Here is a picture of skein 1 and skein 2, still working on 3!
The colors are wonderful. Although I signed up for Phat Fiber over a year ago, I've never contributed. I am still weighing the pros and cons. I do enjoy seeing the boxes everyone gets though. I like what you did with the yarn. A perfect way to make a larger project out of all of those samples.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Isn't it great to have fiber friends who understand the absolute THRILL of getting a package like that!! At my house, the "Look what I got!!" would be met with a mild, slightly weary "Yay"! :)
