A note to all about Phat Fiber!  I have recently joined phat fiber and therefore will be contributing fiber for some of their monthly themes.  For those of you unaware of what phat fiber is, it is a group created within yahoo, ravelry, etsy, and here on this blog site along with their own online site for folks with fiber cravings!  They put together fiber boxes filled with yarn, fiber, stitch markers, patterns, bags, etc., from all the different contributors which they have available for sale monthly.  They also have one super box giveaway which is a larger version of the sample box with some added goodies.  =)  Anyone can enter this contest by either sending in a postcard entry or for every purchase made from any of the contributors' shops.  Here is the link to their blog:   http://www.phatfiber.blogspot.com/

The theme for this month is April Tea Party!  I chose to use the Alice in Wonderland movie to go along with this theme.  I used an Alice and Mad Hatter pic for inspiration.  

Check out one of my fiber samples on this video!

The third sample is from my shop in the "Alice" colorway..=)  Feel free to check out their other continuing videos on their blog site!

I am currently working on a new technique!  I just took a class and learned how to do this a few days ago.  This is fiber covered wire!

This can be used for a variety of projects such as beading, creating baskets, and anything you might want a flexible wire to make!  I can make these on a variety of different wire gauges/thicknesses.  This particular pic is of fiber spun over flower wire, 28 gauge, although there is a plastic coating over this wire so the wire appears thicker.  I have also created some of these on a true 28 gauge copper wire with a variety of different fiber colors.  I plan to post some of these in my shop soon, although am waiting until I come up with a tutorial for how you can cut this wire for your projects and still have the fiber cover the wire for the most part at the ends.  =)

Here is a picture of when I got my first drum carder!  This is the Ashford Wild Carder; I have since purchased another drum carder, the little tom by Fancy Kitty.  This is a nice carder, but it only makes tiny batts!  I also wanted to have something motorized so I didn't have to spend so much time cranking out the batts.  =)  Will be posting something on my new carder soon.

     

More yarn soon to come!
