However, I got out the pots, and the inventory from the closet, and did a bit of experimenting yesterday. Now, if you followed me here from Twitter or Ravelry, here's the buy off the blog deal. I've not divided, wrapped, or done the proper glamour-shots and retouching yet, but if you save me the trouble of making things pretty on Etsy, you save a bit.
If you like any of the below (shots are in pairs, one with flash, one late-afternoon winter light), send me a note at LoftyFibres AT gmail DOT youknowtherest... and tell me what you'd like. The deal is $20 Canadian per 4oz braid, + $5 shipping (any amount). I will send you a PayPal invoice, so please use a valid email. Local pickup can save the shipping. Usual pricing would be $20-$25 in US funds on Etsy.
Please note: The fibre pictured is in 8 ounce/225 gram braids, approximately. They are usually divided into 4 oz braids, let me know if you want all of one braid (2 x 4 oz = $40 Cdn).
