Yarn giveaway

Spin, spin, spin. This is my life.

A two ply and a single. I'm hoping my single proves to be spun well enough not to pull apart. To be honest, that's why I ply so often - I'm not confident about my singles.

And here's my giveaway.

Details: Wool/mohair blend. Approximately 61 grams (2.1 ounces) and 31.5 yards. It's a pretty thick (and not consistent) yarn.

Leave a comment and you're in. Feel free to check out my Etsy shop as I have a few handspun hanks for sale (this is totally not required, just a shameless plug). I'll pick a winner on Sunday night.
The giveaway has ended! Thanks for your comments!

    Oh, how pretty! Thanks for the chance to win!

    I have only been spinning for a little while and your spinning looks so good! Mine is still pretty uneven.

    I have my mom's spinning wheel (needs a little fixing) still sitting in the corner, unused. What a great skill! Love the colors - so rich and deep. Thanks for such a sweet giveaway.
