Hi everyone, and welcome to round two of the fiber club! All of the packages have been mailed and you should have received your tracking emails. When I was finished packing the orders, I had a few thank you notes left over. 😮 If there wasn’t one in your box, then let me say “Thank you for joining and welcome to the club!”
This month’s fiber is a great, fun spin. If you’re not familiar with this breed, pull a bit out from the end and check out that staple length. As long as you keep that length in mind, you should have a pleasurable spinning experience.
I hope you love the colors! This one blew me away as it was hanging in the sunshine to dry. I can’t wait to see how you all spin this to preserve and accentuate that beauty.
Want to see? Can’t wait? Click here.
I’ll be back with some finished yarn photos as soon as I think everyone’s got their fiber.

It really is lovely, though I’ve rarely spun anything with this long of a staple, must look into my options! 🙂

Generally, how soon can we post about the fiber after we get it? Or rather, how soon before we can add photos to the flickr group?
