Description:
I'm doing a swap where the participants trade any kind of fiber 1 oz minimum that can be spun into yarn. For example sheeps wool, silk, camel down, bamboo, angora, and mohair. If you spin or just love fiber come on in! However you MUST have your profile fully filled out and have a rating of 3.5 or higher. No exceptions. Have fun! OH and please include a note to your partner, in which you include what the fiber is and the exact color if you know.

Cooan: There's a lot you can do with fiber even if you don't spin!

1) You could use an ounce of fiber to learn how to spin. 2) You can felt most animal fibers. 3) You can attach it to any altering project you're working on, as a kind of "fuzzy, fibery" texture. 4) You can stuff soft sculpture with it.

I'm so excited, I can't wait!

I am a spinner...who spins EVERY DAY, so the fiber I receive will either be spun by itself or even blended with something I already have! :) I'm very much looking forward to whatever my partner chooses for me.

I sent mine to MandyLou, (again, darned post office anyways. tried reusing a priority mail tyvek envelope)

I'm sure the wool will need a good fluffing. bryanna

Thank you Hannah! Beautiful dye colors! Some of the color patches I will save for needle felting and the rest I am going to spin.
