The April theme for the Phat Fiber Sampler Box is Butterflies and Flutterbies. Flying bugs if you will. As I was listening to music for inspiration I found this gem.
Aha! I hadn’t thought about moths. So a quick Google Images Search turned up this pretty little pic.
Thinking along the lines of cocoons I decided to do a merino laceweight yarn and a merino bamboo blend roving. I should have pics of the actual samples and full size offerings soon. And I have an idea for a new style stitch marker that I might send in as well. You’ll have to wait for more info on that.

On the wheel/spindle:

A baby blanket for The Brand New Ronin Kane! I know I need to hurry.
