Be safe!! Happy New Year!!

Gale's Art Sock Yarn Giveaway!

I was tickled pink (excuse the pun!) to be able to drop a full sized skein of Gale's Art "Pigs in Space" yarn in a box in December! As I said in the video, I'm not much of a pink person, but I would totally wear some socks made with this yarn. It just works!

I was so struck by Gale's artistry that I purchased some "Swirl BFL" fiber from her shop she had named "Pretty Pretty". Though it looked pretty in the photo- it is rare that I gasp audibly when I open my fibery packages. It was not just pretty, but beautiful!! So artfully dyed and all the colors flowed together as if it grew on the sheep that way! Tucked inside my purchase was a beautiful tussah silk sample- the shiniest and softest tussah silk I have *ever* seen! I will certainly be back for more- and very soon!

We're giving away this beautiful "Pigs in Space" skein of sock yarn dyed by Gales Art to a lucky commentor! Visit Gale's Shop, find something you like, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner tomorrow so be sure and you get those extra entries by twittering/facebook/blogging about this giveaway!

Thank you Gale, for once again for showing us why your shop is called "Gale's Art" and not just "Gale's Yarn and Fiber!"

Susan's Kitchen Batt giveaway!

For our Aurora Borealis and Beyond box, Susan's Kitchen sent in the most sparkly and delicious batts!

Susan has much more in her repertoire- stitch markers, roving braids, and sock yarn. Ahhh yes! The sock yarn! It's currently 30% off in her shop right now! You know you need some ;)

You probably will be taking back that Chia Pet you got for Christmas, right? Treat yourself to some fibery goodness at Susan's shop!

While you're there... find something you like and come back and tell us all about it in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner for this gorgeous batt later in the week! Be sure and tweet and facebook about this to get extra entries- let us know you did it!

Thank you Susan for contributing your luscious drum carded goodness to the December box. I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

Fluffington Farms Mystery SAL Giveaway!

December Video!

Smoky Mountain Fibers Saturn Giveaway!

I hope everyone knows by now that our theme for December's box is "Aurora Borealis and Beyond". I want everyone to also know that our AnneMarie from SmokyMountainFibers has been ahead of the game for a while! She has a lot of celestial inspired fibers in her shop.

One of the prettiest planetary inspired rovings is her "Saturn" colorway, and that is what she's sent in for us to sample in December. It's bright and warm and would be the perfect spin-by-the-fire you need during the dark winter nights ahead!

We're giving away 3 oz of this beautifully saturated hand dyed roving today!

We'll be drawing for a name on Saturday, so be sure and twitter/facebook/blog about this giveaway to get extra entries.

AnneMarie, Thank you so much for offering us a sample of this deliciousness!! It's out of this world! (sorry, I just had to)

Desert Garden Farms SAL giveaway!

Wow! Another amazing giveaway from Desert Garden Farms! Jennifer is famous for her SALs! What is a SAL? It's a "Spin- A- Long" where everyone who participates is sent coordinating (either in theme or actual fiber) spinning fiber and as a virtual group, spins and post pictures to the specific group. Desert Garden offers small contests as a part of participating to make it more fun.

Here is what Jennifer has to say about her Star Trek SAL:

Art Batts.....the Final Frontier.

Four ounces of fluffy, out of this world goodness in the form of a Spin A Long with a Star Trek theme! Fibers will be a surprise but may include any number of breeds of wool, bamboo, banana fiber, silk or silk noil, ecospun, mohair, llama, alpaca, plenty of sparkle and who knows what else! If you have an allergy, please make a note on your order. I don't want to send you something you won't enjoy! If you are purchasing this as a gift, let me know and I will make up a little card for you to give so that your loved one knows what has been reserved for them.

Okay, so the details..... Spaces will be availalble until January 20th or they run out, whichever is first. Batts will be scheduled to ship on or about January 25th. You will have until Feb 28 to spin and share your yarn with the group over at Desert Garden Farms on Ravelry. Spin Long and Prosper!

We're giving away a Star Trek SAL slot! Just visit Desert Garden Farms, find something you like, and post it here in the comments section. We'll be drawing for the winner on Saturday, so be sure and tweet/facebook/ravelate for extra entries.

WC Mercantile Texas Fiber Club Giveaway!

The best little wool shop in Texas has generously offered a Texas Fiber Club giveaway here on the Phat Fiber blog!! I'm so excited!! Many of you have had a taste of Stephanie's artisan dyed fiber in your boxes (check out the top picture for a sneak peek at December!) and the response has been wonderful!

We love all of the different fiber options available in the shop! Silk, Wool, Mohair, Firestar, it's really all there. Go look for yourself :) While you're there, feel free to oogle the spinning wheels, the dyes, the yarn, *sigh* this is where I daydream about having a part time job at WCMercantile (quality control, you know, so Steph can put an 'inspected by J' sticker on everything).

So, you want a Texas Fiber Club? Just visit WCMercantile, find something you like, and write about it in the comments section below. Extra entries will be allotted to those who plurk, twitter, facebook, ravelate, or blog about this giveaway/shop. Remember to leave a way for us to find you, but the best way to see if you've won this amazing giveaway, is to check back on Saturday! That is when we'll be selecting a winner.

Thank you so much Stephanie, for bringing us superior products at great prices!

Winners- and water main breakage.

Wahooooooo!

Designs by Tami sheepy knitting needles: Cozyknitting

Wild Hare Lucky roving: PJS (jcloke)

Congrats!!!

The finish carpenters who are supposed to be * drywalling * my studio just broke a water main (head/desk) . Instead of screaming into a pillow, I'm going to try and finish some gift shopping this afternoon. I hope you all have a great afternoon too! I'm sure I'll be posting this weekend, but I did want to remind everyone that we are FAST approaching the deadline for the Fall competition (Dec 20th!) I hope you're all spinning/clicking/poking away!

Shearlock's Choice Award- Light Brown Hare

Our Shearlock is said to be en route back home from Light Brown Hare Headquarters. I do hope he doesn't get caught in a blizzard!

Shearlock had an absolute amazing time this past month, and as you can see from the photos he was incredibly well taken care of- I hope he hasn't gained too much weight or we'll have to put him on that nasty alfalfa sprout diet again.

After discovering the Light Brown Hare crew also enjoys Battlestar Gallactica, Shearlock phoned home to say he wanted to stay a little longer. The food, the wine, the all day dyeing and the cutting up with Dale (Shearlock finally got to use all of his BSG jokes/quotes and references!)- it has been heaven for him.

Dale has already listed some full sized yarn that will be featured in our "Aurora Borealis and Beyond" December box. I am certainly drooling over the 600 yd Nebula yarn. *Sigh* I love it when I can buy a special skein of fingering weight in enough yardage to knit a small shawl. Nebula, you may be mine yet :)

Thank you so much Dale, for taking such good care of Shearlock and for letting us all in on your adventures in dyeing and knitting. We've had great fun peeking in on your artwork!

Speaking of

Wild Hare and Giveaway!

I'm so very excited to be featuring this Phattie today. Wild Hare's shop is absolutely brimming with fiber candy of all shapes and sizes! From the awesome Spinolution wheels and spindles to art yarns and finished scarves this shop has it all!

Wild Hare is a one-stop shop with an artistic flare. Take a look at her new fiber ornaments! So festive and adorable! Melissa is also famous for utilizing local mills and fiber to create unique products like her tweedy roving (ingenious!)

I hope you all have fun perusing Wild Hare today! Melissa has generously offered this beautiful 3 oz "lucky" wool top for a giveaway! Just tell us which Wild Hare product really floats your boat in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner on Friday so be sure and let your other online friends know about the giveaway- twitter/facebook/ravelry.

Melissa, thank you so much for sharing your ingenuity with us!

Designs by Tami *giveaway*

Tami sent in the cutest santa sheep stitch markers last month! Did you know she has matching santa sheep knitting needles? What an adorable gift it would make - or embellishment for the top of a knitting related gift!

I wanted to have a little blogpost on this busy Monday, to remind you that Tami has lots of inexpensive but cute items you can use to stuff your stockings this year! Check out the photo bracelets!

We're giving away this adorable set of Santa Sheep knitting needles! Just visit Designs by Tami, Find something you like, write about it in the comments section below this post and remember to retweet/facebook/blog for extra entries!

Winners!

We have winners this week!

Alisha Goes Around Spark sock- Crystal Rutheford

Blue Mountain Handcrafts batts- Stephanie (nephnie)

Moonlight and Laughter batt- Lilyunfolding


Congrats!!!

And in non-fiber news:
Tonight, Marcus and I will have the exceptional pleasure of learning How to Rob a Bank- No really! My beautiful sister is hosting a house concert for Willy Porter at the Dairy in Metropolis, IL, if you're in the area (worth driving to if not!) it should be an intimate but amazing performance.

Moonlight and Laughter Batt Giveaway!

Oh I've yet to have my first sip of Egg Nog this year, but the November Moonlight and Laughter samples made me crave it! I also look at the yarn and immediately see a little knit dress with embroidery on the bodice for my little toddler. Hmmm. Maybe this yarn needs to be mine?

Marilla is one of the sweetest Phatties there is and her strength and wisdom as a person amazes me. She dyes some amazing yarn and fiber too!

We're giving away this beautiful lilac batt created by Marilla. It's incredibly floofly and delicate looking and would make the lovliest yarn, I think! Please visit Moonlight and Laughter and find something you like, write about it in the comments section below so we can all see! Remember, to always leave a way for me to find you, and remember to use your social networking sites as extra entries- let everyone know about Moonlight and Laughter and what you like!

Thanks Marilla! Your colorways are knitting and spinning inspiration!

Blue Mountain Handcrafts fiber Giveaway!

As we approach Winter, there is no need to be glum! Winter has traditionally been a time to catch up on all of our fibery projects, a time for quiet reflection and to notice the subtle winter beauty that surrounds us.

Beth, from Blue Mountain Handcrafts has created this gorgeous set of spinning batts called 'Bare Trees and Blue Sky' for a giveaway (psst click the link and buy it for yourself while it's still in her shop!) A beautiful melange of blues, grays and black with a hint of sparkle.

When you visit Blue Mountain Handcrafts, you'll notice right away, the humorous and whimsical atmosphere and the colorful creations. Beth has also managed to use the word fiber and bail in the same sentence and for that, I think she needs some special award :) It got me thinking about what a happy place Blue Mountain must be, and reminded me of that old song about a "Big Rock Candy Mountain" Swap out fibery goodies for the sugary stuff and that must be what Blue Mountain is like!- Am I right, Beth?

We're giving away this beautiful Bare Trees batt set! Just visit Blue Mountain Handcrafts, find something you like, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll draw for a winner on Friday so be sure to check back! Also remember to retweet/facebook for extra entries.

Thanks so much Beth, for your gorgeous creations and your lighthearted and supportive outlook on what is normally considered a serious affliction (at least that's what my hubby thinks!)

Alisha Goes Around Spark Sock Giveaway!

Whew! I hope everyone had an enjoyable and festive weekend! We spent the day Saturday trimming my Father-In-Law's tree for him and I kept thinking about this beautiful skein of sock yarn that Alisha Goes Around sent in for a giveaway.

This Spark Sock is truly amazing- the warmth of wool, the softness of silk and the sparkle of sterling silver!! I think it's simply gorgeous, but we're a little "partial to the sparkle" at casa Phatfiber.

I really love Alisha's website, I check back often and am always surprised with more color and bases each time I visit. Today, we're giving away this amazing holiday-red skein of Spark Sock (400 yds!). All you need do is sit down, pour your hot beverage of choice, visit Alisha Goes Around and find something that strikes your fancy. Post about it here, so we can all go see too and wait until Friday for me to draw a winner. Be sure and leave a way for me to find you- we don't want your winnings to end up in the great give-back in January! Oh, and if you tweet/plurk/facebook/blog/ravelate this you'll be given extra entries.

Thanks so much Alisha, for sharing this beautiful sock yarn with all of us!

Farm Girl Chic Gift Set Giveaway!

Melissa of FarmGirlChic is putting together these incredible gift sets in time for the holidays! I love the vintage charm style she puts into creating these one of a kind wonders.

I was going to say this is the perfect gift for the knitter/spinners in your life, but I think I will amend that so say this is the gift you should get yourself! Imagine waking up Christmas morning after only a 2 hour nap (you've been up all night playing santa you know!) you wade through the sea of wrapping paper and say "look, there's one gift left for me!" The kids and significant others have gone off to play with their new toys and now there is this beautiful gift of fiber/knit time just for you! Thank you FarmGirlChic!

We're giving away this beautiful farm fresh gift set to a lucky commenter! Just visit FarmgirlChic and find something you like, write about it in the comments section below, and we'll be drawing for a name tomorrow! Remember to twitter, facebook, ravelate about this contest for extra entries!

Thank you Melissa for creating these lovely treasures!
Yarn and Fiber

Two Sheep Fiber Shop and Giveaway

New to the Phat Fiber box this month is Two Sheep Shop, offering luxurious and affordable handspun yarns!

Two Sheep Shop hails from Canada, but US customers don't fret! You could purchase your yarn and have yourself a lovely completed project in time for the holidays, no problem! I enjoy that the shop is all handspun and it's divided into sections by weight. I'm eyeing some of that laceweight- enough to make a small shawl!

We're giving away some silk laceweight handspun! Just visit Two Sheep Fiber Shop, find something you like, and post about it in the comments section below- remember to retweet/update your facebook to get extra entries! Check back to see if you've won on Friday!

The Critter Ranch Waldorf Salad Giveaway!

I can't tell you how much I loove the Critter Ranch samples this month! So cute, so creative, so crafty! I am regretting now, not copying down the waldorf salad recipe! Maybe if I sweet-talk Sue, she'll email it to me :)

Speaking of Waldorf Salad, it used to be on a list of dishes I would not touch. In fact, my older sister and I had a set of rules we came up with as children visiting various family gatherings, parties and such. One of the rules I remember was any kind of salad that had a person's name in the title was inevitably icky and should not be eaten.

I recently purchased some of Sue's beautiful Llama roving and I think I may have even found an appropriate pattern to spin it for here. I'm super excited to be giving away this 2.2 oz llama fiber from The Critter Ranch! We'll be drawing later this week, so please visit The Critter Ranch, find something you like, and write about it in the comments section below. We'll grant extra entries for those who tweet/facebook/blog about her shop too!

Sue, thank you so much for working on these samples this month, they were truly awesome!

Woolie Bullie Silk Sliver Giveaway!

Wooliebullie sent in the most amazing silk fiber samples this month! The inspiration was the traditional holiday plum pudding with coins inside. I really can't wait for you all to get your boxes and be able to experience this yourself!

I really think this new plum pudding colorway is such a rich, beautiful, and versatile one- an all time cool weather favorite color for me!

The Wooliebullie shop is chock full of seasonal colors for you to browse- head on over there and tell us what your favorites are! We're giving away this luxurious silk sliver spinning fiber in the plum pudding colorway!! The Drawing will be held on Friday so follow these easy steps:
1. visit wooliebullie.etsy.com and find a listing you like
2. post a comment to this blogpost letting us know which listing
3. make sure you leave an identifying mark (rav id, email etc)
4. update your facebook status, twitter, or blog about wooliebullie's amazing shop for extra entries!
5. check back on Friday to see if you've won!

Of course, I hope you win, but if you don't- be sure and treat yourself to some wild and wonderful wooliebullie!

Knit It Up tags- PenelopeRose

Counting sheep farm silk- Leah (leelee)

Comfed Out Kaiser scarf- Spinsandknits


Thank you all for commenting! Of course, more beautiful giveaways coming soon!

November Teaser Video!

Comfed Out Kaiser Scarf Giveaway

There are a few samples that come in to HQ I am especially touched by and Dawn of Comfed Out Kaiser has sewn several sachets, cut from one of her grandmother's quilts this month.
I felt it was truly keeping with the Home for the Holidays theme!

When you visit Dawn's shop, the first thing you read is her wonderful introduction:
Comfed Out Kaiser is what I think of as my own perfect little corner of the world. Where everything that is usable gets reused. Where history has a value. Where organic doesn't just mean food. Where everything I do supports my community both local and online.

I love that her shop is not only a place to help support her role as a work at home Mom, but also an expression of her sociological values- a way to use her income to support others.

In this spirit, Dawn would like to give away this beautiful hand-knit wool scarf to a lucky commenter here on the blog. All you need do is tell us who you would give this lovely scarf to! Don't worry about tweeting or retweeting, just take a minute and think about who you would give this piece of handmade goodness to.

Read more about Dawn at her entertaining blog here: http://kaisermommy.com/

Counting Sheep Farm Giveaway!

This month, Counting Sheep Farm has contributed some very lovely Alpaca, Cormo, and Silk fiber samples in natural colors. Rachel is in the process of combining both her My8kidsmom shop and Counting Sheep Farm to help you, the customer reduce shipping charges and for shopping ease.

Have you visited Rachel's farm website? Learn about the different types of sheep they raise, see photos of the animals (adorable!) and see an overview of what's available at both shops. It's really a pretty website!

Rachel is giving away this beautiful ounce of silk hankies! Just visit counting sheep farm, find something you like, and post about it below! Remember to leave a way for me to find you when you win and remember to twitter, facebook, and ravelate about Counting Sheep Farm for extra entries. These hankies will be given away on Saturday!

Knit it Up Tag giveaway!

I just ordered myself some knitting gift tags from Knit it Up Yarns. I wish I think I might have to go back for some kate's more humorous tags as I played it safe buying the elegant pretty kind.

We're giving away a set of her more blatent tags and here is what Kate has to say in the listing:

I'm a gift knitter. I just love the satisfaction of making something with my own two hands for someone I love. These gorgeous gift tags have a place for you to write in your name and the recipient's name, and when you flip them over you can write in the fiber content and care instructions for your gift.

Unfortunately, not everyone appreciates the hard work you put into your handknitted pieces of art. Hopefully you're not knitting for those people, but just in case you think your recipient might need a bit of a reminder, these tags have a little note at the bottom that reads: "This project took hours of my precious time to make. You may now ooh and ahh and wear it every single day for the rest of your life." {Inspired by the lovely knitters in Ravelry's Selfish Knitter's Group}

Each set comes in a tin box for safekeeping.

I love it, having a few people on my list who are teetering on that not-so-knitworthy edge this year myself :)

Visit Knit it Up, find something you like, and post about that item in the comments section below. We'll be drawing for a winner on Saturday! Tweets, facebooks, and blog posts get second entries!

Thank you always Kate for bringing some perspective to our knitted gifts this year!

Winemakerssister is giving away your choice of a porcelain coffee mug with knitting quotes written in Heather's beautiful calligraphic handwriting. I have been using my apocalypse mug everyday since I purchased it!
