A little bit of uploading...

I'm procrastinating for "School" just now and decided I should get my butt into better gear about business. So, if you peek over there on the right, the Etsy mini has a whole heap of new fibre. Everything I presently have dyed and ready to go (in fibre) is now listed.

Here are a few more things coming up, that will be heading for the shop shortly. However, I've yet to label and name, so... you like? Let's do a you buy it, you name it discount, until this weekend (ends Friday, midnight). Just count down from the top, I've added number labels for ease. Email me, loftyfibres AT gmail dotcom, first come first serve.

First: Twisted Pairs yarn/fibre braids. $30 no tax no shipping, so a little savings off the retail. The ones you see below are a half-braid (2 ounces) of BFL top, accompanied by and absolutely yummy hank of LoftySocks Luxe cashmere-merino sock yarn.

Here are a few from a previous lot, 2 oz BFL fibre paired with a dye-lot-matched skein of LoftySocks BFL sock yarn. I did in fact name these few, but hey, buy before listing and rename if you like!

Next up, for you sock/glove/shawl/babystuff knitters - Some re-runs from the last post, as I still haven't named them. LoftySocks+ Superwash Merino/Nylon yarn. I haven't listed too much of this yet as it's a newer base - $20 if you take it off my hands before I name it! I apologize for the blue cast of the photos - they need to be re-shot, it was a dusky late winter afternoon.

plus-1 (there are two in this dye lot, and that gold colour is quite a bright orange!)
Plus-2
Plus-3
Plus-4 (also two in this dye lot)

Plus-5
Plus-6 (2 in the dye lot, this is not as flat and brown as it looks - it's a dark copperish colour, and there are miniscule flecks of precipitated dye - kinda neat I think, but be aware if you don't like the effect)
