I'm a Fibreholic

If you live in the States, you get Phat Fibre, if you're in the UK you get Fibreholics.

I decided to go for a Fibreholics box this time, turns out I was the first to order a box.

It came today and I love it all (apart from one which is really scratchy, but I might have a go at felting that!)

Want to see pictures? Of course you do, it's what you came for innit!

  3. Hi, I'm glad you got one of my Lincoln wool samples! The "scratchy" one that you refer to is mine. I decided to put a few samples of it in this round so people could try something that they might otherwise not try. I find it works really well for items that need greater durability than usual. Try using the resulting yarn as the base of a bag or basket, or as the outer fabric on some slippers!

    If you like it, I have more in various colourways at http://sheepshape.etsy.com .
