Firstly to fibre and yarn boxes. I have bought several of these in the past, but this week I subscribed to Fibreholics. This is a uk based initiative to promote uk fibre and yarn by indie dyers. Below is what came in the mail today. I am really pleased with these. Whilst one or two of the companies are known to me (porpoisefur, mandacrafts) there are some samples from companies that I've not used before or even heard of. One of these is limegreenjelly. There are samples in fibre and yarn. Another I'm excited about is www.fivemoons.co.uk. I love the idea of Fibreholics, and hope to start contributing to the box myself.
Thank you Fibreholics for such prompt service and for introducing me to some new fibres. You can find the details about this initiative at www.ravelry.com and looking for the Fibreholics group....
