    Hi Em! I love just about everything in your shop, but I am EXTREMELY taken with the merino/bamboo fiber braid in 'Crest'. I'm quite a new spinner (spindle spinner!) and I would looooove to make some gorgeous yarn out of it :)

    First, happy birthday! May all your wishes come true.

    Oh, and I LOVE the self striping yarn(Gamer Stripes PS3). Wonderful colors!

    Lavastorm is my favorite colorway. I adore it. I also love many of the self striping colorways, but I stick with lavastorm.

    Lavastorm sounds like so much fun! If we win on Groundhog day, can we live that day over a few thousand times?

    I just went through your shop and ended up adding like 92387237 skeins of sock yarn to my amazon "wishlist" for when Im done being yarn-frugal; however, I think I'm the most taken with your "Signature Sock Yarn - Superwash Merino and Nylon - Companion Cube" at the moment!

    ooh-I've been admiring your colourways ever since I reluctantly resisted the lavastorm at Fibrations! Since then I've been loving malachite and crabapple especially-it would be impossible to name a favourite! I don't FB or Tweet, but I do have Google Plus and now I know I can follow blogs that way.

  19. ZenitudeJanuary 14, 2012 at 5:06 AM

    That sticky baby is so cute! My favorite in your shop is your alpaca fleece in the Salt water taffy colourway. I've never spun alpaca yet.

    I had to go back and forth through the shop pages more than once to settle an a favorite. Your batts are so lovely that I wish I could spin, but since I cannot, I choose Hopscotch Fingering Weight Merino and Nylon Sock Yarn - Sugar Plum. I love the this yarn!

    I love all the colors in your shop, but my favorite hands down is the signature sock yarn in malachite. I would love to make myself some socks out of it! One of my goals this year is to knit one sock a month so by next Christmas I'll have 6 new pairs of handknit socks and be up to having a pair for every day of the week!

    Hi Em! You know what I like! ;) I personally would love all the Self-Rescuing Princess skeins to myself. But I do have my eye on Companion Cube...although, I will admit that when I do go to your shop, the first thing I look for and click on (solely so that I can drool and dream) is that lovely skein of Signature Sock in Malachite. I honestly want a sweater made out of that colourway!
