Etsy Treasury!

What is an etsy Treasury??
The Treasury is a member-curated gallery of short-lived lists of 12 hand-picked items each (plus four alternates). It functions as a high-demand (and pretty!) promotional tool that many devoted Etsians fight to get.
One of my handdyed Falkland Top braids (Mango!) was handpicked to be apart of an etsy Treasury. First time, and such a pretty treasury! Thanks fluff4ewe for including me :)

Etsy Shop Update

This is my biggest update... Lots of pretty hand dyed Falkland Top. This fiber is so soft and fluffy! I dyed up a braid in pretty purples, lavenders and pinks for me.. I can't wait to get to it!

This wool is soft enough to wear next to you skin, and will also felt great too! Falkland is very similar to Merino, with a staple length of 2.75-4.5 inches (70-90mm), and is a fiber count 56s (26 micron).

Some Updates!

I have actually updated my etsy shop! <---click that link! I added six 4 ounce braids of Falkland top for spinning. 3 each in two different colorways: "Sweettart"
Sweettart NF falkland top 005

"Jawbreaker"

Jawbreaker NF falkland top 001

I really love how cheery these are! Each braid weighed out just over 4 ounces prior to dyeing (from 4.10-4.20 ounces) And Falkland is so soft and bouncy! Micron count is about 26 (almost as soft as merino).

Also (I know this is a late posting!) I went to the Madrona Fiber Arts in Tacoma last month and scored some gorgeous stuff.. A huge honkin' 8 ounce bump of superwash merino in "Wish You Were Here" from Crown Mountain Farm


a braid of handdyed Rambouillet from Rainy Days and Wooly Dogs (on etsy)


and a 8 ounce skein of natural silver alpaca!

I am thinking of spinning the rambouillet to match the gauge of the alpaca and knitting a vest for me with them..
