GIVEAWAY!!!!
I am doing a "Christmas in July Heatwave Giveaway" I think most of the nation is in the middle of a heatwave right now, although in Michigan we did have a cold front move through. We are in the mid-eighties instead of the nineties!!! I have been wanting to get some more traffic to my blog and yarn/angora shop for some time now. I have been doing some research and decided the best way to start is with a giveaway. Everyone loves to get free stuff, even if it is an Angora stocking cap that is seven times warmer than wool! So from now until next Friday, July 16, leave a comment for me on this post and we will pick the winner next Friday! You will get this 100% hand-spun, hand-dyed knitted stocking cap:

Angora Yarn From Start to Finish
We have been dying angora fiber this week. Here is a little peek of what we have done so far.
This is one of our English Angoras:
This is the fiber after we have groomed the rabbit:
This is the green dyed angora fiber:
This is the yellow dyed angora fiber:
These are the two colors together:
This is what they look like after they have been carded together:
This is on my wheel right now:
I am working on spinning it and will post pictures of the finished yarn hopefully later today!!
