May Phat Box

Got my Phat box for May today and boy was it nommy! Here's a shot of the fibers. Top row includes: Crocus Merino from www.Chimera.etsy.com; gorgeous sample batt from www.froggyfibers.etsy.com (love this!); Alpaca sample from www.alpacanation.com/sciotovalley.asp; Bellino mohair/merino from www.natchwoolie.etsy.com (I've been eyeballing this!). Bottom row includes: Superwash Merino from www.twistedfiberyarn.com, Chloris SW Merino from www.spincerely.etsy.com, and Flourish Merino/Bamboo roving from www.lotusjulie.etsy.com.
Here are the yarns. In the top row: Sprinkles handspun by www.ambrosiaandbliss.etsy.com (we love this one), Tigerlilies and Nasturtiums handspun by www.rsuntop.com (another fav), delicious Petal Pushers hand dyed from www.my8kidsmom.etsy.com, and Poppy organic merino sock yarn from www.extremespinning.com. Bottom row: Spring Shower sock yarn from www.sqwish.etsy.com (love the bus name!), brilliant Victory yarn from www.epicurus.etsy.com, and Appletini cashmere lace from www.JagsFunkyFibers.com (makes me want to learn to knit lace!).

Then there are goodies. Tons of coupons and cards tucked into this darling notions wrap. Also included: tiny project bag by www.BlueTulips.etsy.com (amazing!), gorgeous shawl/kilt pin from www.dawningdreams.etsy.com, ceramic buttons from www.heartstone.etsy.com (I'm a button freak!), tiny stitch marker from www.twiceshearedsheep.etsy.com, and a darling raindrop stitchmarker and cute rain themed bookmarks from www.winemakerssister.etsy.com.
All in all a very satisfying box. I'm off to fondle it some more! Thanks to all who contributed!!!

  1. OMG! You got one of my little business card/coupons! I know it is silly but it makes me so excited just to see that they actually made it in boxes! Hopefully I can get samples sent in soon - that will be really thrilling! I've been handmaking some more intriguing cards and bookmarks for the next box...not sure if samples will be in the works until July.

  2. It's funny, lots of us look for our samples "in the wild" and get very excited when we see them!
