•The winner for July is Cindy Widner! Congrats, Cindy!
Love crocheting and do a little knitting – I love the different colors we can use and how people feel getting handmade gift!
I love to knit and felt hats.
Yarn loves to travel – just like me! Plus the phrase – “Stay calm and carry yarn” — that describes me and my yarn. I take it to on road trips — I remain much calmer when the hubster drives through busy traffic in large cities. (so he remains calmer too – lol)
I love the sheen and drape of silk when it is woven into a scarf.
favourite thing about yarn is all the colours to play with I love working with variegates to see the natural colour changes in the project
I entered because yarn allows me to be creative and if I make a mistake or don’t like it, I can frog it and do it over.
I entered for the August giveaway! My favorite thing about yarn is the fact that it’s light and I can take it anywhere, especially since I’m in the process of moving!
P.S. yarn + needles = endless possibilities 🙂
yarn is low fat way to add fiber and color to your diet ;
Entered. I love the possibilities yarn has. Like to let my imagination free!
I love the way it feels and what I can make up with it. Plus it’s soothing to work with.
I entered! The reason I love yarn is because it is awesome! It’s so versitile, you can make anything, and it makes you feel accomplished. It is also super fun to pick out your colors!
I guess my favorite thing about yarn is the feeling you get when it’s creamy smoothness is passing through your fingers and you realize, hey, I’m creating something that didn’t exist before!
I entered. My favorite thing about yarn? Only ONE thing?! *head explodes*
It’s good for knitting a replacement head when yours explodes from trying to pick only one favorite thing about it!
lol, that was a good one!
Love the varied textures and colors
I entered the August contest. My favorite thing about yarn is how it transforms from one beautiful state of being to another! (From skein/ball of yarn into . . . .only limited by imagination and pattern!).
I have purchased a few skeins of your yarn. I must say the colors are beautiful. But you make it almost impossible NOT to order something all the time! i would love to win the yarn, I have never won anything so to win the beautiful yarn would be awesome. I used to live in Alaska- Anchorage- a very long time ago. I hope I win! LOL
Kate
I entered. The colors are beautiful! Would love to knit something up for Christmas gifts for the room mothers of my classroom.
I’m entered! My favorite thing about yarn? It is a sensory pleasure to work with. The visual and tactile experience is what I go for!
I believe I was born loving yarn. It gives me so much joy to create beautiful things with it and keep my hands busy at the same time. When I go into a yarn store or see yarn, I see things not balls of string, as some people call it. I could spend my life in a yarn store 😀
I have no words of this loveliness that just took my breathe away. Such beautiful loveliness in one bundle. Yes, I could handle that…..
I have entered for this month! Hoping to win this month’s yarn giveaway! Such wonderful colors!
I entered thanks for offering these chances at winning. My fav thing about yarn. Is all the different things you can make. From particles dish cloths to extravagant clothing fit for a runway. Not to mention all the textures colors or the list goes on and on.
I love yarn of most any color but I really love Merino yarn. It is so soft and works up so well. Love it, Love it!
I love yarn for its infinite possibilities
Entered. Yarn is… possibilities. Fresh new avenues not yet taken.
I love how yarn feels and transforms itself into something tangible.
My favorite thing about yarn is the endless possibilities it contains 😀
Oops! Forgot to say what I love about the yarn. The lovely, lovely colors are what I love!
I entered the drawing. I love the different colors of yarn, fibers and what can be created.
I love being able to take a beautiful yarn and turn it into something a loved one will squee over. I entered my email!
I am a longtime subscriber from Vermont! Someday I will come out to visit Alaska!
The thing or things I love most about yarn are the colors and different ways different color-ways make me feel. Also the texture of the various fibers make yarns and items made from yarns a tactile love fest for me!
What’s not to love?? Chandi, you do the most amazing stuff. Not only do you provide great yarn for our project, but you also inspire us with you work. So glad I found you.
your wool is so inspiring and reminds nature of things you see around. thank you for doing your giveaways … perhaps one day you will come to the isle of harris and be inspired by the colours you see here …
I have entered the contest for August 2013. I really like the medley of colours and can think of a few items that would look really good in these colours.
My favourite thing about yarn?? Hmm….I love the look of all the different colours as well as the different textures – I really enjoy the soft yarns. Often just drop by my local yarn store to get a “yarn fix” of feeling the lovely skeins and looking at the colours and twists and textures.
I just love the endless creations that can be made!
I entered the yarn giveaway! I’m loving that your giving away silk yarn-no itchies for me!! 😉 My favorite thing about yarn is that it exists!!!!
I entered! I love yarn because it has so many different textures, and I love being able to make beautiful homemade gifts for my family and friends! (I just have a hard time actually giving things once I’ve made them, because I love them so much!!)
I entered!
My favorite thing about yarn is the smell. I don’t know why but when I pick up a new skein of yarn the first think I do is smell it. My husband thinks I’m crazy but there is something so comforting about the smell of yarn. Smells can trigger memories and feelings of times past, filling us with feel good endorphin’s and making the creative juices flow so heavily you can’t help but want to create!
i would love to try your yarn ,the colors are fantastic,Would love to win the contest ,even a sample of it,too see how it works up then I could order some
I love to knit. Not a professional, but I’m working at getting better and need to learn to crochet. Yarn is so relaxing to work with and helps me de-stress. As a mother and grandmother, I’m constantly making afghans (my favorites) for my family and need more and more yarn to do so! 😀
I am a subscriber for sure. Working with yarn is so therapeutic for me. That’s what I love the most.
I am entering your Monthly contest and hope I win this month my most favorite thing about yarn are the colors and the soft feeling. I just love having it all around me.
Hello, Chandi. I’m entering the August contest because I love your yarn. I love all yarn, of course, and your yarn keeps me inspired to create projects using different techniques on a regular basis. I love using yarn to create gifts for friends and family all year round. This year I plan on writing and publishing some of my own designs on Ravelry and perhaps selling some creative projects on Etsy as well. By the way, thank you for your continued creative energy and inspiration on Facebook!
I’ve entered and my favorite thing about yarn is seeing it turn into something I’m making!
My favorite thing about yarn is probably the feel of the yarn in my hands as I work it into something useful and amazing! But what’s not to like??
I entered the give away! Such BEAUTIFUL yarns in the picture, I can only hope I’m lucky enough to win one day.
I love yarn for so many reasons – the beautiful colors, the incredible softness, the fact that with a dose of creativity and a little patience, I can make something magical. Yarn makes me feel closer to my great-grandma, my grandma, and my mother – all inspired me to start knitting and crocheting at a very young age.
Have entered. Favourite thing about yarn? The possibilities it contains, ypu can turn it into anything!
Yarn is just so squishy!
One of the things I love about yarn is the peace it brings me. Whether it’s shopping for yarn, working the yarn, or just looking at it on line helps me to calm down and relax.
I’m entered and eager to win more yarn to create warm and cozy goodies to wear.
My favorite thing about yarn is the wonderful feel of the fiber and the feeling I get when knitting with it. I love the feeling if it running through my hands all soft and yummy.
I am already subscribed. My favorite thing about yarn is that it represents endless possibilities and no two people envision their final project the same way.
I’ve entered! I love all the colors, textures and possibilities of yarn!! It can be ANYTHING!! 😀
I’ve been subscribed for awhile, but I looooove your colorways and can’t wait to try your yarns! I love yarn because it’s instant therapy – from looking at the colors while in the skein, to feeling it form fabric as I knit it up, to wearing the beautiful finished objects – it all makes me happy when I’m stressed out from one too many poopoo diapers!
Just entered, can’t wait. Yarn helps me channel my thoughts & dreams into something tangible that I can share with those I love.
I entered! I love slow color change yarn to work with. Always a delight no matter how long the project. 🙂
Hi Chondi,

connie hart
Numbers 1 and 2 done. My favorite thing about yarn – there is just SO much you can do with it. I can make little things – dish cloths and baby bonnets; or big things like afghans. I love, love, LOVE your yarn. I bought some a couple of months ago and finally decided what I am going to make with it. I really, really want to try your silk yarn – haven’t done that yet. Thanks so much for these lovely giveaways that you do – I get excited every month to see what you are offering. In conclusion, all I have left to say is “Pick Me!”
Congrats to Cindy!
My favorite thing about yarn is what it tells me it wants to be … I seldom buy yarn with a project in mind but the yarn “speaks” to me!
Can’t wait to see if I won in August! Knit on!
I love the way your yarns are displayed, with the color chronograph images and nature photos. Awesome.
I have played with yarn as long as I can remember, because I live in Australia and we get transferred all around the country there are many times that we live in areas that are far to hot to knit or crotchet with wool so that is the time I start to play with silks.
I love the colours that you dye up and your updates brighten up many a day 🙂
I am already on your mailing list, so I have already entered, but wow, I would love to win that silk yarn!
I have some other hand-dyed silk yarn here…and I would make a featherweight striped cardigan! And a shawl! And…omg, I love silk so much!

What’s not to love about yarn?!? It’s squishy. It’s fun. It can be whatever we dream up. We are only limited by our imaginations. <3
Love silk yarn but on a social security budget I just can’t use them. Love the bag what I use now just tips over and spills yarn or crochet hooks.
The thing I enjoy about yarn the most is that it helps keep me sane. I am disabled and can’t leave the house very often. So I live for my yarn and all of the goodies that I can make with it. Hope I win this month’s give-a-way!!!
All the color options.

I love this yarn because you always have lovely colors.
I love everything about yarn, but especially deciding what it wants to be!!
Hi Chandi. I entered the August giveaway.
My favorite thing about yarn, besides how various fiber combinations look and feel, is the infinite possibilities I see in each yank of yarn or handful of roving. These possibilities fill my mind and inspire creativity. Wonderful!
Cecilia

Yarn is the ultimate “comfort food” of the senses.
I’m entered and I love yarn for the wonderful feel it has going through your hands. It’s better than therapy. I can think about the effort involved in creating that yarn and how someone will feel when I present them with something I have made! It’s the best!
I subscribed 🙂
I love that yarn can be used for so many things, my favourite being knitting!
I love so many things about yarn: the colors, weights, the feel of each type, the versatility of its uses, the fun of making things with it. Don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have it in my life!
I have entered and your question reminds me of a song, ” these are a few of my favorite things.. warm woolen mittens.” My favorite thing about yarn would have to be the unending variety of things you can make out of it or do with it!!!!!!! It has to be one of the most fun and exciting things to work with in the world!

Yarn calms me!
Hello Chandi!
First of all let me tell you how I enjoy your Facebook posts. And yes I entered the August giveaway… It’s my birthday and anniversary month so I hope it’s lucky! What I love about yarn is all of the things you can do with it. A ball of yarn camps become a sock, a scarf, a sweater, a shawl, an afghan. You can mix colors; you can mix patterns and stitches. The combinations and results are endless. There is always something for you to do if you have a ball of yarn and a pair of needles!
Eileen
I’m entered. I gotta say my favourite thing about yarn is the colours! Matching them to a pattern…endless possibilities!
One entry for the August giveaway! Because yarn is the thread that connects creative muscles to generous hearts. And because your yarn, colors, facebook posts, etc. have become an obsession.
Yarn makes me smile!
I love creating things for my Grandsons and I love seeing their smiles.
I love all sorts of yarn. I am a yarnaholic. Your yarns would love coming to my home.
I have entered hoping to be given the chance to win your beautiful yarn. I wish I could afford to buy some but without help from others I can’t afford living as it is. You know the word eke, well so do I and some times it’s eek! I love yarn because of the unknown things that one’s imagination can come up with to do with it. I also use it to make love for others. Thank you for this chance to win some. Good Luck to everyone. Peace in Crochet Beth
I have loved yarn and knitting since I was about 4 years old. I love the feel and that you can basically take “string” and make something beautiful.
I’m in, and I love playing with the different colors and textures of yarn!
I love color! Bright color and lots of it! Lol! I love watching it evolve into the piece I’m working on!
My favorite thing about yarn – the fascination I have with how these beautiful balls of gorgeous colours and sensual texture twist and turn themselves upon my needles becoming ever- more beautiful !!

I am entered, and my favorite thing about yarn is the feel of it while I’m knitting…so soft and lovely.
the colors are gorgeous
My yarn keeps me sane!
I entered your drawing for August.
I love yarn because way back in the day, my mom would start an afghan and leave it laying around the living room. We girls (I have 2 sisters) would pick it up and work on it and then wander off, and eventually it would get completed and disappear and another one would be started and we’d work on it, etc.. Years later it finally occurred to me to ask Mom what happened to them and she said she used to drop them off at the homeless shelter. I’m glad she donated them but now that she’s gone I wish I had one. Anyway, that’s where I got my start crocheting and then when I married my husband his mom and grandma taught me to read patterns, so now I can make more than just blankets and scarves. lol Even though my current project is a blanket!
What a great legacy your mom left for you. I love the idea of having a blanket that everyone can work on. My kids are still little but I would love to do something like this with them.
Thanks, it’s one of my favorite memories.
I have entered the drawing and also signed up for your mailing list! 😀
All the different textures and colors that yarn comes in. It can totally reflect your mood: rough and dark, bouncy and shiny, or soft and decadent.
I’m a subscriber! Fav thing about yarn is how it feels in my hands, how it looks on the needles as I knit. I’m very tactile!
Yarn gives me inspiration to create beautiful things
Yay! I entered … maybe August is my month!!! I LOVE yarn … it is so beautiful by itself, you could just hang it on the wall as a piece of art, or you could take a stick or two and tie a bunch of knots and make it into something you could wear or carry things in and it will be beautiful and functional …
My favorite thing about yarn is that it starts as some sort of fiber and with something as simple as a stick, it can become a beautiful yarn that can be used to make something totally different than what it started out being.
Hello i’m entering the contest , my favorite thing about yarn is that I can make things that are useful.

Supposed to say I hope to win.
I love the colours, the feel and everything I can make with it.
Hi! I just entered for the August give away. I love the feel of yarn as I do projects……silky, chunky, smooth and lumpy!!! LOL!
I work at a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center and teach the adolescent boys and girls knitting and crocheting which they use as a coping skill. If I won I would put the yarn into the stash I use with these adolescents. It would not be for my own personal use.
Entered…. Love the feel. It’s very relaxing working with yarn.
I’d like to enter the August yarn giveaway. I love the feel of yarn- the silky smoothness. I love to win this one because I love the smell of silk ;o)- which is very distinctive.
I entered and my favourite thing about yarn is my Nanny used to make sweaters, mitts and hats for my sister and I when we were little 🙂 I hope to make those things for my Grandkids one day!!
I’ve looked at your yarns for several weeks now on facebook and I’ve marvelled at all the beautiful colours that you sell. (The blues are especially nice). I love knitting and find a great deal of satisfaction wearing something hand knitted. Living in the UK I would love to know how much would postage cost if I order from you. I think I’ve entered your competition, I’m not very computer literate, I’m a lot better with a pair of knitting needles! I also used to crotchet but haven’t done it for years!
Steps done. Love the colors and what all you can do with the yarn.
You have beautiful yarn, would love to try some. You can be so creative with yarn.
I have entered into your contest. I sure hope I win that yarn. I make stuff with it and then give them away. I love the colors of your yarns.

Subscribed and my favorite thing about yarn inspires me to do learn new patterns:)
I love everything about yarn…..it makes me happy!!!
Hi, Chandi, I really love your yarn and am unfortunately unable to spend any extra money now. I have been unemployed since the beginning of April. I so enjoy your photos of you dyeing the yarn. Someday, maybe I’ll be your best costomer.
I am hoping that I am the lucky winner of your yarn giveaway. I rarely win any thing in life so this would be a real treat.
Love yarn because of the feel, yummy colors, the unbelievable textures and dimensions of the yarn, and the array of different yarns that can be used in designing and knitting your special projects. The decorative yarns make all your projects unique and one of a kind. You cannot purchase the finished knitted projects in a retail store, so that makes you special as the knitter and your project special because it came from you and your hours of stress free and fun hours. I could go on and on, but I am a yarn junkie and I cannot stop. The new textures are my weakness. Here’s hoping that I get a special package from Alaska with all the beautiful silk yarns. Silk is wonderful to knit with.
All done and signed up for the August give away!!!!
I love all the colors and some of the patterns you have done are fabulous.
My favorite thing about yarn is how it expands my imagination. I see all of the possibilities when I come across new colors or types of yarn. It’s inspiring.
Entered the contest! Love the colors of your yarns! You come up with such brilliant colors!
Congratulations to July winner, Cindy!

Hi Chandi,
Yay, I entered the contest. I love yarn because of the endless possibilities you can create from literally colored string. I love the lace weight silk you dyed that I purchased earlier this year. I love looking at it, and soon will decide what to do with it.
Take care now.

Another lovely giveaway. Would love to win this. My favorite thing about yarn is all the wonderful things I can make out of it, and it is a soothing hobby.
I’m entered! 😀 most of the yarn I buy this time of year goes toward Christmas gifts. With my family on one income, this would be really helpful!
I am already entered. I’m new to your sites and your yarns
……..AND I LOVE ALL OF THEM!!!! I’ve ordered several of the newest
colors of yarns and have told several of my friends about you!! In fact,
I’ve just bought a yarn swift and baller to keep up with my new”addiction”!!
Yarns are so tactile – smooth, slubby, rough, or even itchy (I am allergic to wool but LOVE the colors!) – and watching patterns or colorways evolve is so enjoyable – so, I would say the feel and look of yarns are my favorite.
Hi,
My name is Lorenia Fish. I have enjoyed your web site and all the beautiful things you create with yarn. I love doing the same. I don’t need a pattern to go by usually just looking at it and I can make it. I would love to have some of your beautiful colors that you have to offer. Hope that you pick my name this time, my granddaughter already ask for the next blanket I make and your yarn would be special for this special little one.
Thanks for the chance
Lorenia
faboulous colours hope i win
I entered however it told me I was already a subscriber 🙂
I love the versitility of yarn…….you can use it in so many ways and create such wonderful gifts! Crafts, doll hair, animals, clothing…….and so much more <3
I would SO love to win this drawing! My favorite yarn to work with is wool. I have made afghans, hats, scarfs and numerous sweaters.
I just entered the contest for August and I love to look and feel it. Can’t decide on a project fast enough.
Love the purse and of course the yarns are really nice.
I LOVE yarn….the colors are what I get most excited about….the choices are almost unlimited and you create things that others wear and love as much as I do. Thank you for your give-aways!
I entered the August giveaway – I love yarn because I find the rhythm of knitting to be soothing. I have huge stress and for me knitting (and crocheting) are like yoga – meditative and peaceful. Nothing helps my blood pressure like an evening of knitting (or crocheting or spinning)… Blessings, Kathryn
I love yarn because it makes me happy.
I entered! My favorite thing about yarn is the diversity of fibers and watching something I am knitting or crocheting take on a life of it’s own…

Already entered.
How do you pick just one thing to say about why you like yarn? That is impossible.
Yarn is a link to sanity. It takes you to that oh so quiet, happy, loving place inside you. It links people together without you saying a word. Just sit somewhere in public, catch someones eye that is watching you knit or crochet, and you both smile and nod. No one needs to speak. Or it can be an ice breaker. you are working on something and someone asks what you are making. It can only go up from there. I could go on and on. Wonderful, beautiful colored, soft, buttery yarn is like taking a deep breath and going AHHHH!!!
I am so EXCITED to be the July winner!!!! I fell in love with the beautiful shawl pin and can’t wait to see it in person. I’m also jumping up and down with happiness for the lovely yarns and bag!! What to knit? What to knit? Haha thank you, Chandi!!!!
Hi Chandi,
I am so excited and delighted to be able to enter this contest! The first thing a fiberholic notices about yarn is the color. The lasting and most favorite thing about yarn is the texture of a carefully constructed yarn. If a yarn feels like an exquisite caress to your skin it is nearly impossible to pull away from it. It is ambrosia to the senses, like the scent of daphne in the spring, jasmine in the summer and Clerodendron trichotomum, more commonly known as Harlequin Glorybower, that blooms in late summer.
Bringing a knitting project to work for break times, I generally will have people wanting to touch the yarn and not easily give it back to me. I love it!!! Gives me, a fiber nut, a chance to share what a beautiful yarn can be.
Thanks for sharing your website and your wonderful yarns and patterns!
Sincerely,
Margie
love the feel of yarn as i am crocheting and watching my project take form.

Hi Chandi
Hard to say what my favourite thing about yarn is, there are many things about yarn I love. I’d have to say the thing I love best about yarn is it calms me down. If I’m having trouble getting to sleep at night, I think about a yarn that I’m dying to knit and I’m not sure what to do with. I think about the seemingly endless options for that particular yarn and it’s lights out in less than five minutes.
I’ve entered your contest.

Hi CHanding,
My Favorite Thing About Yarn Is The Feel, Especially Silk Yarn!
Thanks,
Marianne
what a wonderful site.. I LOVE flowers and plants and gardening in general…. I have always dug new gardens where there were none, or added to existing ones wherever I have lived. am reading up on southern gardening, as I am making a move to SC, and know nothing about gardening south of the mason Dixon line….
I love the feel of the yarn sliding through my fingers as I knit!
I entered because one can not have too much yarn. Or too many bags! Nope! I sat and spun some yarn today in fact!
Entered. I love the feel of yarn as it flows through my fingers.
Just entered your August Yarn Giveaway. Love the yarn and the bag.
ENTERED!!! WOOO HOOO I’ma GONNA WIN THIS TIME!!!
What I LOVE, ADORE, and….LOVE about yarn is the versatility of SO many different types, shades, colors, and textures…..I could just EXPLODE with the creative options!
I’ve already subscribed. I would love to win this silk yarn, I already have a gift planned for it…lol.
Forgot to say what I like about yarn. I love the way yarn feels when I crochet. It is amazing how a “string of yarn” can turn into a beautiful blanket or shawl; or whatever it is that you like to knit or crochet. Yarn gives me inspiration and helps me with my daily stresses. I love yarn because it is my lifesaver.
I entered the August giveaway. What I enjoy about yarn is the different textures that it can have and the different textures I can create with it. Each texture lends itself to the creation be it a soft warm baby blanket to a thick, durable and warm blanket made for the homeless or a beautiful shimmering shawl. It is more than just sight, it is the feel between your fingers as you crochet the idea into a reality.
I enjoy looking at all your yarns, then going to the knitting and the crocheting sites to match up a pattern to a yarn.
I guess I love the relaxation I get when I see, feel, knit or crochet yarn.
I love yarn…because you can do just about anything with it!!!
I just love how relaxed and calm I feel when I am working on a project with my yarn : ) !!!! It is very therapeutic!
Entered!
My favorite thing about yarn is the endless possibility of things you can make with it! (As well as the feeling of it against my fingers as I knit/crochet ) 🙂
I’m already subscribed. I love the feel of nice soft yarn, I love the endless possibilities of what can be done with yarn and I love seeing a completed project. One can never have enough yarn…
I love to knit and I like to make baby blankets for my kids to give their friends for showers, etc. I also like to make hats and mittens for children in need. I have made some baby hats and want to donate them to the hospital in the area. I also crochet turkeys that fir iver the plastic eggs for the grandkids to fill and give to their class mates.
My favorite thing about yarn is that it is away to express myself, bring happiness to my friends, and relieve stress aaaand it has no calories!
Oops…a way…
I’ve entered! My favorite thing about yarn are the colors, each color makes images in my mind of just what I’d like to make with it!
entered 🙂 I love yarn b/c it makes me happy. And Im super excited cuz im getting a wheel next week…woopwoop
Entered! And I love that you can do anything with it and it can be anything.
My favorite things about yarn are colors and textures!! So many colors. Brights, darks,variegated, and neutral. I love the myriad of combinations. I am new to knitting and crocheting, but gosh I feel like an addict!! I check everyday, several times a day to see what new colors and combinations you have come up with. I want to buy them all!! I love the squishy feel of wool and the soft drape of silk. I love the buttery feel of merino/cashmere blends. I will never go back to synthetics!!
I have entered your giveaway, and I like everything about yarn, the feel if it and using my imagination as to what projects I can attempt xx
The texture and wonderful colors….
I am already a subscriber to your newsletter. I LOVE this months yarn selection, what beautiful colors! My favorite thing about yarn is the variety. There are so many styles, weights, colors, textures – it’s enough to boggle the fiber lovin’ mind!
You can’t have too much!
I entered and my favorite thing about yarn is that you can do sooooo many different things with it! Oh and all the different colors and textures!! =)
Your little bio blurb sounds just like me, with the exception that I have not yet embarked on the dying journey.. but I already have a nice stock of dye samples to play with once I get there. I’ve crocheted since 1967.. and started knitting in 1997 again (grandma taught me those slippers with a pom pom when I was 9ish, but I lost interest) when I was diagnosed with a chronic illness and had to do a lot of time in the passenger seat of our truck going to doctors. I knew I couldn’t drive from there, and to my husband’s delight, found that knitting kept my focus off of his “job” and prevented many altercations I’m sure. Yarn has been the harmony to my love of music ever since. It’s been my productivity when I have had to be sedentary. It’s been my boredom breaker. It’s been my sanity more times than I wish to relate. I love to spin fiber, felt fiber… yep – fiber…. it’s my friend, savior, art medium and anchor for most of my life.
A subscriber following blog and instagram 🙂
Seeing ur pics if yarn is like entering a candy store 🙂 hence entering August give away was easy.
Best thing about yarn…i’d say the feel of it. An example is the amount of mohair skeins i own…soooo soft an cuddly…and i don’t even like knitting in mohair 🙂
Regards,
Maria from Sweden
The orange yarn would be transformed into a cowl for my cousin, Ericka. 🙂 Your yarn is all inspiring!
I’ve entered the August giveaway – My very favorite thing about yarn is that it transforms, through twists and turns, from 2D to 3D while exhibiting all the beauty that pulled me to it in the first place.
What a beautiful rainbow of yarn….and the bag ain’t bad either! 😉 If I won, I would literally spend an hour of looking at it, then and hour of squishing it in my hands, running it through my fingers, and yes, even smelling it. I love yarn!
Fave thing about yarn? It’s essentially a piece of string, but look at what it can become! Yarn is all about potential, it literally can become anything!
I love the yarn that I’ve gotten from you. It’s some of the most amazing material I’ve ever used. I love the texture and the overall feel and look of my shawls. I love to show off my shawls and tell everyone where I got the yarn from.
Thanks Chandi 🙂
Love ya
Paula.

And the texture of different yarns sliding through my fingers.
Plus, in the winter, a woolly project keeps me warm.
I have entered and the reason I love yarn is when you mix it with one or two sticks you come up with amazing things.
Yarn for me is my little oasis that I run for when I feel my life has turned into a desert. A few rows of colourful yarn and suddenly the world becomes a more mellow place. I think the politicians of the world should all become yarn addicts as so many problems and solutions are found when you are caught up in a mind swirling with colour and texture….. well it works for me. x x x
Hope!!
Yippee I entered and I’m so excited. I so love yarn because of its softness and it’s potential use. I love to look at it and think of what it will be.

She has to have yarn with her where she can see it at college, even when she doesn’t have time to do anything with it.

Hi! I’ve entered for the August giveaway! For me, yarn is akin to therapy. The colours and texture make me happy, and all my troubles slip away while I’m playing with yarn! Thanks, Rachelle
The first thing I notice about yarn is color. I love to look at my project as I am knitting, admiring how all the colors are taking shape in whatever project I am working on. And I love it when it’s done! Your yarns are beautiful!
My fave thing about yarn is the endless possibilities of what you can make. Well I’m a total knitting newbie so my possibilities aren’t as endless as others but I still love it
Yarn. Yarn keeps me sane. Recently my dad was in the hospital and I would sit with him and knit. The knitting kept me from getting upset and helped me focus on him not his illness. The process of working with and making yarn is therapeutic and almost puts me in a Zen-like place. I don’t know how I could deal with stress without it.
I entered the August giveaway because I love that squishable feeling you get from squeezing yarn!
I entered!
My favorite thing about yarn… hmmm… the smooshiness!
I just entered your august give away contest.

Love this yarn! It would make a great hairpin lace shawl!!!
I just entered your contest! What can I say…I am a thread junkie! From knitting, crocheting, to cross stitching and embroidery, I love yarns and thread! Silk, wool, cotton and specialty yarns all allow me to express myself in creative ways!
I love all the different fibre choices and colours, the possibilities are endless. Never pass up a chance to expand the stash 🙂
I love the entire process..picking a wonderful yarn and just the feel of it running thru my fingers..and then magically I have something beautiful to look at or wear or for the most part just give to someone special
I subscribed and LOVE yarn. Everything about yarn makes me happy- texture, squishyness, colors, the way you can play with stitches to make AMAZING designs…. I could go on and on but I won’t. Yarn is my life, though (and everyone knows it) 🙂 Please pick me!!!!
I can’t get enough yarn…laceweight, dk, worsted, chunky…and on and on. Every time I touch some fabulicious yarn I dream about what wonderful new creation could emerge from it. I am so lucky to love knitting!
I love that I can take a string of yarn and make it into anything I want. The freedom of true creativity.
I entered !! And I love yarn because of all the amazing things you can make with it. It is one of the most functional, but at the same time beautiful, mediums. I love knitting lace, sweaters, scarves, and baby clothes. You can’t go wrong with yarn 🙂

Hi! I just entered your fabulous contest. I love the endless possibilities if colors on yarn and all the many textures. There are enough new yarns to try out and play with. And most of all being able to create something unique and special with that yarn!!
I entered.
I love yarn because of the pretty colors, how it’s usually soft and the ability to create with it.
I just entered the contest…the best thing about yarn is figuring out what pattern will enhance the beauty and texture of the yarn…or I just LOVE the color!

I really enjoy yarn because I can make unique gifts for my family and friends that’s just from me. I put a lot of love and care into everything that I make. I so enjoy knitting it is a big part of my life, is always has been, from the time I could walk I remember my mother knitting and she taught me at the age of 5. I have never stopped knitting and never will as long as I can do it and remember how to do it. I would really love to win this contest, I love your wool/yarn and always wanted one of Namaste Co, bags but will never be able to afford one. Due to that I am on a fixed income, do to an accident at work 11 years ago. Knitting keeps me sane, if I didn’t have this I would be insane, no joke I have had two back surgeries and I have constant chronic pain, that I take medication for daily. This allows me to walk.
Sincerely TerryLee Diemert
Sorry entered and sent a message about why I love yarn. Thanks again TerryLee Diemert
I entered! I succumbed and fully acknowledged my love of yarn in the middle of a yarn shop on my honeymoon almost 3 years ago. Now, I have a special warmth in my heart when I see yarn because it reminds me of those amazing few days up at the cottage. We had a very small, intimate ceremony and I had a very patient husband who drove with me to 3 different stores around Ontario until I found a book that I could understand to learn how to crochet. Knitting has my heart now, though. 🙂
I love yarn because it allows me to create anything that I could possibly imagine. And being able to create in any color I can get my hands on makes me so happy! :]
I entered the August contest.
Love looking at all the wonderful yarns you are dying. The colors are exciting. I love the feel of Marino wool both as yarn and as roving as I knit and as I spin the rivers.
I meant “spin the fibers” (auto correct gets me everytime)
I love the colors and the textures of yarn. So many different kinds!!!
I Love YARN. i’VE BEEN A SPINNER FOR 25 YRS NOW BUT i JUST RECENTLY HAVE LEARNED TO KNIT! iT IS SO AWESOME. I’M LOVING IT GOT MY 1ST HANDSPUN BAG ALMOST FINISHED THEN GOING TO FELT IT. IM IN LOVE WITH THE VARAGIATED BLUE YARN. I WANT TO START YARN BOMBING 🙂

I entered! What I like most about yarn is how lovely it feels and how wonderful it makes me feel to create with it!
I am attracted to the colors first and then how it feels in my hands. I ordered some of your yarn but I am out of town. Can’t wait to get home and see it. I know it is beautiful.
I am a subscriber. I love your yarn colors. I used 100% silk sock yarn for a scarflette for my sister that she loves. My favorite thing about yarn is being able to knit with it every day to keep me centered.
Just entered. I have loved yarn forever but yours is the best. The colours are to die for (pun intended) and they just make my heart sing. Now, what would I make if I won? Not sure, but likely a cowl and possibly a shawl. Thanks for the chance to win your fabulous yarn.
I just entered…and it’s hard to pick just one thing I love about yarn! I live to squish it, and I love the colors it can hold.

I love yarn for its ability to give comfort. It warms us when we are cold. It shows love and friendship when given away. It displays creativity and genius and beauty.
Oh, and I entered the contest. 🙂
I love the colors. I have a great pattern for a shawl that would look beautiful with the yarn. The bag is a bonus!
I love to create new beautiful things for family, friends, and occasionally myself! 🙂 I love yarn… I could always use more gorgeous colors and textures to work with.
I entered! I am always amazed that I can take yarn and make something so nice out of it! It makes me happy!
My favourite thing about yarn is it’s therapeutic properties. Colour therapy, touch therapy combined are wonderful for my fight against PND. I struggle daily with Post Natal Depression and knitting with gorgeous brightly coloured yarn is helping me to beat it. The knitting its self takes my mind off of my depression and keeps my mind active. The feel of it is soothing to my nerves and the colour just makes me smile.
Yarn makes me happy !
Yarn – what to say – its colour hits me first, especially if it is rainbow coloured. Then I wonder what stitch will show it off to its best – what shape article. Where will I put it – I don’t make garments, but I fiddle around with lots of other pieces. Then there is the feel of the yarn – both before it is knitted/crocheted in its skein and then afterwards when it is a piece of material, a width of cloth. I am always amazed at how yarn has so much potential. I love it.
I entered!! I absolutely love yarn because I feel like I’m working magic with my crochet hook… I LOVE making afghans and doilies and everything between… Ah! 🙂
I have entered! I am still fascinated that a long straight piece of yarn can be worked into any number of beautiful things!
I entered. Love all the colors of the yarns. I can just image how beautiful something would look made out of them
Love working with your yarn
I have entered! I love yarn because of the color, texture, drape of my finished sweaters, knitting with it alone or with my knitting group.
Using your yarns is like painting with yarn:)
I love the way a project takes shape and turns into a finished piece I am proud of. If I am stressed, my crocheting and knitting takes my mind off my worries. I am working on my 1st sweater and hoping for a beautiful end result. I entered the giveaway and I’m keeping my fingers crossed!!
I love how you can’t make so many beautiful things with just a strand of yarn and a hook. It’s also very thereputic.
I’ve entered your contest. Thank yo for the opportunity of viewing the most beautiful and creative color combinations I’ve seen from anyone. I just want to pet your pictures. 🙂 I love to create with my hands (since that’s about the only body part that still works). Thank you!
I’ve entered… I just love all the thing’s that you can make from a tiny piece of string…. It’s endless, it make’s people smile, some people love the fact that you thought of them while you were making there gift. I love the feel of it threw my fingers as I’m crocheting.
I entered! I love the textures and colors in yarn. I love the designs they make when combined. I love the patterns. I love turning it into something uniquely mine.
August giveaway — there isn’t a thing I *don’t* like about yarn — looking at it all piled up, color after color, feeling it change as I work it – whether knit or crochet – and the way working with yarn can calm and center me — a moving meditation. Love your colors – have more sock yarn now than I have family members’ feet – and know you will offer great stuff that I HAVE to have faster than I can use – but that’s what a stash is for!!!!!! Happy knitting……..
Entered for August give a way. My favorite thing about yarn….the memories it brings from my childhood! My mom and grandmother owned a yarn shop, THe Red Barn Yarn, when I was little bitty- 4-7? They’d go to Dalton, GA to get yarn, then on cones, and bring back a truck full of yarn! Oh man! It was like Christmas! My brother and I would spend hours winding balls of yarn off cones to fill shelves. We’d climb up in the balls of yarn at closing and pre-tend to go to sleep, as if we were the Walton’s! Nite John boy! Nite Mary Ellen! Nite Momma! Oh…. Such fabulous times!! Plus all the great things mom and my grandma made! Inspires me daily still to make something beautiful and useful!
I entered! I love the colors and textures. I’m satisfied just to sit and look at it! 😉
Entered 🙂
Why I love yarn? It’s versatility.
Not only in terms of how many colours and projects I can make…but the gifts I can give…the meditation…the stress relief…the focus…the fun…not to mention the conversation starters.
Yarn has indirectly resulted in a number of new friends!
Its uses are limitless! 🙂
Yarn is perfection unto itself!!
I entered the August compettion. The best thing about your yarn is the colos….simply devine.
I am entering the August drawing. My favorite thing about yarn is the many weights and textures you can use depending on what you are interested in making next. Sometimes I want small needles and 1-2 weight yarn. Other times, medium worsted and circular needles for a nice warm shawl or sweater. Graduate to the big needles for a nice warm dbl or trpl weight afghan. Variety is the most fun. I would get bored doing the same thing over and over.
I love texture & color & the endless possibilities of creating with yarn. It is therapy. I love the smell of yarn, even when it’s wet. <3
I forgot to mention that I entered…. (:
I entered. My favorite thing about yarn it the feeling of it in my hands. Every yarn is different, and even the same yarn can feel different with different stitches.
Already subscribed! My favorite thing about yarn is the variety of features it can appear in. There’s so many different types of yarns that I believe that there is a favorite type/brand of yarn for everyone. Since there are so many yarns with different features, people can easily find a yarn that they prefer the most. I have not yet found mine but I do know for a fact that I like smooth, silky yarn that is cool to the touch. When I looked at the silk yarns in the picture above, I really wanted to stick my hand through my computer screen just to stroke them! I also like yarn with unique and vibrant colors since it gives off a nice pop of color from the dull color that surround me. At the moment, I want to learn how to felt wool or finished yarn projects (after I saw the felted bird in the July giveaway) but I can’t seem to find the materials to do so. So, I’m putting that goal on hold. in the meantime, I’m going to try to crochet my best friend (who is about to start her journey in needle arts) a round frog since I didn’t get a chance to give her a birthday gift. Anyways, I would like to say thank you for holding this giveaway!
(P.S. I’m practicing my writing skills for the school year.)
I entered! My favorite thing about yarn is what you can manipulate it into. One day you have a rolled ball of some type of yarn, the next you have the beginnings of a scarf, hat, sweater, whatever you’re working on. I love seeing different colors of yarn all around me and finding something to make them into!
I am just addicted to beautiful yarns and knitting. Find it too hard to put down!!
Taught/teaching myself how to knit so I’m still what I classify as a beginner. I love yarn because there is such great variety of yarns, anything you can dream of plus more!
Favorite thing about yarn…
The endless possibilities of color, texture, and the people
who I can knit for.
I have lusted after your yarn, Chandi , but unfortunately,
I am currently in a financially constrained period.
I LOVE to look and dream though!
You are an amazing creator!
I entered the August contest. What do I love about yarn? I love making things for others: socks, scarves, sweaters, fingerless gloves, slippers… I love the feeling of accomplishment, and the get-togethers with other knitting friends.
Have subscribed. Handling yarn is one way to be directly in contact
with nature, which ignites our creative spirit.
Entered! =) I love all yarn. Soft yarn, bulky yarn, yarn that just slides through your fingers. I love being able to create, all the possibilities of the yarn.
Fabulous yarns you are giving away this month. My favourite thing about yarn is the alchemy of turning raw fleece off a sheep’s back into yarn. I love it.
I just love yarn……….the colours, the textures and the feel of it. I know I have loads abut I’m addicted and still keep buying more……I DO use it and currently have socks, a shawl, a scarf, a baby’s blanket, a child’s jacket all on the go. I just do whichever takes my fancy, unless I HAVE to get one finished by a particular time. By the way, I’ve made several scarves from your Mum’s pattern. They’re fabulous!!! Trouble is when I see a new pattern / project that I like, I want to start it……so I usually do. Life is full of variety. Your yarns are fabulous!!!
By the way….I HAVE entered!!
Helen Outen

I am a regular subscriber and so appreciate the opportunity to win great prizes on your blog.
I love the endless color combinations of yarn…and the wonderful textures…and the way it feels gliding through my fingers…and the finished products…and the looks of amazement when I share those projects…and – well, I think you get the picture.
I entered and would love to win because there is nothing that soothes and inspires the soul than the look and feel of these yarns. The range of colors and the way they change and mingle is truly a feast for the eyes, both when knitting them, and after, when wearing them. True treasures.
I love working with different yarns, the feel and texture help me to decide what to make with that yarn.
My favorite thing about yarn is it’s unlimited creative potential. I crochet, I knit, and do many other crafts & I’m always looking for ways to incorporate it into my other crafts, especially my jewelry.
I just entered! Thank you for the giveaway, beautiful yarn as always. I love yarn and there is no reason. Love does not need a reason.
The yarn you are giving away looks soooo yummy you can almost taste it. The bag is adorable. I love how I feel when I knit, in that it is so relaxing and it takes my mind to a better place of contentment.
I like new yarn types and colors. Can’t wait to try it
I’ve entered because there is so much to love about yarn. The colors are amazing and yarn can be soft, silky, or fuzzy. I really love fingering weight yarns. I’m obsessed with making shawls, scarves and cowls lately.
My favorite thing? Beautiful color, especially the variegated and self-striping yarns, the beautiful textures, soft cushiony loveliness! Yarn is happiness!!!
My favorite thing about yarn, hmmm. Deciding on only one is tough. Yarn is warm, soft, snug-able, never judges, is there whenever you need it….and doesn’t need kitty treats.
Yarn is soft, warm, huggable, never judges, is always there when you need it….and never needs kitty treats.
Thanks to your 7 day email course I am starting to try to sell my knitting on Etsy. I am starting small with scarves and working my way up to cats, kittens, and custom baby wear. This month’s prize would certainly help my fledgling business along. I love to knit, crochet, and tat. It is my major stress relief and outlet. It helps me be social with others; I’ve joined a knitting circle that meets in the fall. It helps me manage my pain. I would love to continue to grow in the quality of knitting I do – your yarns are beautiful and I would love the chance to work with them.
I entered the contest. Thanks Chandi. Marjorie
I’m so thrilled to see you that you tat, it’s becoming such a lost art form. Please pass it on to as many others as you can, it’s truly a legacy.
I love yarn because I can create with it and creating makes me so happy, which in turn, makes others so happy.
I did all needed to enter. I love yarn for many reasons the top three are it calms me by letting me knit/create, it helps make clothes to keep my sweet babies warm and the colors!
I am entered in the contest, yay! Yarn is so versatile and comes in sooooo many colours, textures and fibres!
Love all things fiber from my hobby sheep farm to the end product, yarn!
Spend a lot of my fiber time teaching (weaving, knitting crochet, spinning , felting,etc) to 4-H kids to love all things fiber.
Thanks Tammi for telling me about Fancy Kitty.
Entered! (And I almost always “share” your things on FB!) I love yarn because of its versatility and that it “speaks” to me! You can make clothing, blankets, jackets, etc. You can weave, knit, crochet, etc. You can let you grandson create a web all around the living room. You can tie up your hair. You can use it for relaxing… Yarn is part of my creative life-force. I’m so happy to have found your site and your FB page because you “get” who I am… a yarn lover (we are a special breed!).
Love yarn & fabric . .so sensual in texture & colour!
I entered the contest for August. My favorite thing about yarn is how it feels in your hands as you are knitting or crocheting. I also love the wonderful colors now available.

The best thing about yarn is all the things and stuff it can become, the sky’s the limit
i have entered. i love yarn because i believe every newborn and every child should have a blanket made especially for them to know that they are loved.
Love the rainbow of colours and variety of thickness of yarn available…
I love the feeling of yarn and being able to create so much with it. I knit/crochet at work when it is slow (customer service rep for a telecommunications company) and it helps keep me calm. I also love the compliments and the ‘you have to teach me’ comments from my co-workers. 😀
Entered. The endless possibilities of what can he made with any yarn is what I love.
I love everything about yarn….the feel, the colors, the creativity it brings out in me, the joy of blessing others with something handmade….thank you for your exquisite yarns!
It’s so hard to choose a singular favorite thing… It has so many qualities! I love everything about it. I love how it feels between my fingers as I’m winding it, crocheting it, or knitting it. I love how it can look so drastically different with each different stitch you use. I love the endless possibilities it presents you, so many that your head starts spinning with all the ideas. I love how it BEGS you to create with it. I love how it unlocks my desire to make.
Crocheting and knitting are one way I can relax and soothe my soul. The fact that I can do it in a room full of people makes it even better!
I entered & love your yarns. I use Luesther Schwartz on Facebook!
I entered the August contest at Fiber Arts.
I love yarn! I crochet everything from children’s items, adult clothing and accessories to blankets. It is my sanity. I am now learning to knit. Just in the beginning stage with that though. I would love to get some of your yarns.
Love the endless possibilities!!!!
I entered, and I love that you can create almost anything with yarn!
I love yarn because of the way it feels, and because it is the tool that allows me to create beautiful things! From sheep to shawl, fiber is my great love!
Hi Chandi!!
I entered, and would love to win some of incredible yarn!!!!
August Giveaway–Yarn is a feast of texture for the hands, and color for the eyes. When we knit or crochet, we breath our own life into just a ball of string, and it becomes something more than it is. As we create, we become part of a marvelous process. That’s why I love it. 🙂
Oh I can’t hardly weight to see if I win. Good luck everyone .
I have entered the August Give Away. I love yarn. I love the colors first, the feel second, and even the smell. I crochet very well, since I was 15 yrs old. I am learning to knit and love it as well. I love the difference in knitting and crochet. I love how people enjoy the things I make and gift them with. Who ever wins the giveaway, it’s fun just to talk about our love of yarn. 🙂
ya i entered,,, i love yarn because you can make anything out of it!! and it is so warm and it can comfort with out wanting anything in return. 🙂
I love that what seems like just a simple strand of yarn, can become a beautiful garment or blanket. It’s amazing what can be created, and with all of the types and colors, the possibilities are truly endless.
I entered… who wouldn’t!??!?! Love the colors and textures… so many ways to put them together and it is calming at the end of my day.
Love your yarn. Beautiful colors. Would enjoy making some beautiful idems.
Yarn has kept me sober and smoke free for 3 years now, it’s relaxing, and has helped me find my soul purpose in life again. if it weren’t for yarn …..
I am a subscriber already. I love yarn because just looking at it makes me happy… touching and then being able to make lovely fabric with it makes me doubly happy!
I entered. I love yarn because it can be used in so many ways from crochet to knit, to a million things kids can come up with. I especially love how just a little yarn and a few ‘knots’ made with whatever hook can turn into a heartwarming gift that someone will have forever
Subscribed! My favourite thing about yarn is how many things it can turn into, like a blanket for my baby, a shopping bag, a kitty hat, washcloths, the list goes on!
Love your yarn -the colos are gorgeous!
Yarn inspires me to create something new, or gives me the motivation to tackle a pattern that I’ve been reluctant or afraid to try out, just to be able to have the finished product in hand (complete with a triumphant “WHOOTCHA!” pose, of course).
Aaaand of course, in my excitement, I forgot to complete the first step: I entered! 🙂 Sorry about that!
I’ve entered of course. 🙂
I absolutely LOVE the texture of yarns and also the wide variety of colors! Ain’t nothing better than that! 😀
There isn’t much I don’t like about yarn. Your colors are so down to earth and thats what I like. Yarn brings out my creative side, helps me to unwind at the end of the day. I like to knit with different textures also. I just like the whole creative process; like a coloring book and crayons, there are no limits with your colors. Thanks for letting me enter your contest and thanks for all your wonderful colors.
Entered. Fav thing about yarn is it’s endless possiblities!!!!
There’s so many things to love about yarn it would probably be easier to list what I don’t love about yarn…which is absolutely nothing. I love the colors, textures, and of course the people that come together over yarn. One idea after another.
I entered because there is no such thing as too much yarn. I love the texture and color in the skein. I enjoy digging through my stash to find just the right yarn for my current project. I try not to get sidetracked by how a certain yarn in my hand would make a beautiful something else. I feel so very happy when I finish a project and can enjoy the texture, drape and color combination. For the sake of brevity, I will stop now. I could go on for a long time about yarn and crocheting.
I am entering to win August.
I love yarn because it makes me think of my Grama. I can be busy other beautiful colors and create new pieces. I love the colors. I really do check go for Chandi’s new colorways and works!
I love the yarns.
I entered the aug contest!! 🙂 What I love about yarn? Besides everything…I love the softness and it gives me the opportunity to create beautiful things! 🙂
August giveaway…I’ve entered!! What do I love about yarn?? I love the texture, especially of hand-spun yarn…it is so soft that I can imagine being totally wrapped in it. The colors of hand-dyed yarn takes my breath away…it seems that gorgiousness is only limited by the imagination of the dyer…yes, I am a complete yarn addict!!!
I entered the August give away. I am in love with yarn because whatever you do with it is only limited by your imagination.
Just entered August giveaway. — I just received my very first order of your gorgeous yarn… emerald forest DK… and can’t wait to start my project with it! I have loved seeing pictures of all the colors, but most have been in lace weight. Since I’m a relatively new knitter I have been wary of using a yarn that thin. Thank you for having this gorgeous color available in DK weight.
Yarn is beautiful, the result of human effort and thought. Yarn connects us, person to person, back to the past of all those who ever worked with their hands, wool and silk and linen and all, and to the future of those who wear the lovely things we make, and to those who will continue to make beautiful and useful objects with care, thought, and attention. Yarn is history and creativity and love – and human.
I entered your contest! My favorite thing about yarn is how soft and squishy it is. And it’s so versatile. and colorful. bah! too many favorite things! It keeps me from getting antsy. Have to keep my hands busy.
Yarn is my peace. Any where. In the car. watching TV. Or just relaxing. Yarn or fiber or roving is always there for knitting, crocheting weaving or spinning.
I am just getting back into knitting after years away and I fell in love with the beautiful colours of your wool, they bring back happy memories of sunrises and sun sets all over the world. xx
The reason I love yarn is that I see lots of creativity and entertainment in it, endless possibilities… so I drive myself crazy trying to decide the right project, every skein is a treasure!
I entered! I haven’t done anything with yarn for years and this would be a great excuse to be creative again!!
My favorite thing about yarn is the endless possibilities!
I’m already a subscriber, so that means I’m entered for the contest. My favorite thing about yarn is how much it soothes me, both as a finished object or as an in-progress project. I’ve grown up with handmade yarn goodies from my grandma, and then made by myself when I learned at the age of 12. It’s hard for me now as an adult to even sleep without some sort of handmade blanket to feel in my hands and around my neck as I sleep. And there is nothing that soothes me quite like a project I am working on (even if it’s a complicated pattern). When I’m going through my hardest times in life, working with yarn has been something to get me through.
Entered. : ) Yarn, yarn, yarn. : ) Hmmm…… What do I love about it? Everything. The colors mainly. : ) It gives me peace. : ) Thank you for what you do. : ) Take care. El : ) Good luck all.
My favorite thing about yarn is the infinite possibility of what can be made! There are so many color, texture, size, pattern combinations – you will never run out of opportunities to try something new.
I entered for August. Yarn is such a great way to create something unique, it pushes your imagination and calm the spirit at the same time. 🙂
I have entered! My favorite thing about yarn is… Everything! I love the colors, how cozy, warm, and stylish it is. I love the feel of a crocheted blanket, or bolero. I just love yarn!
Love the colours that you have to offer and the names of the same
What beautiful luscious colors!! That picture just begs for someone to sit down and create. There is nothing more satisfying that taking two sticks, and yarn and creating fabric!!
Wow! I love the colors and all the silk. I don’t usually apply for contests because I have a lot of yarn, but this one I would use every bit of. I like yarn because of the variety of feels and colors and designs available for my fingers to create with.
Yarn is like therapy. After a long day at work, I know I can unwind with it.
I’ve entered! What I like about fiber and yarn is that it brings pleasure to so many … starting with the sheep/llama/muskox/goat etc., to the spinner, to the knitter , to the giftee, to the hand-me-down recipient, to the yarn recycler, and so on.
Entered for August…. I am totally hooked on your yarns….. 🙂
With yarn you can make soft and cozy ART!!!
I’m entered!

Entered! My favorite thing about yarn is well….everything!!!!
Entered!
My favorite thing about yarn/fiber is the way it feels to MAKE something
Everything! The feel, the colors, the textures and the way it changes with different stitches or hook sizes. Hmmm……so many possibilities!
I’m an avid crocheter, and love making gifts for my daughter and my friends’ kids. I work full time as a flute teacher and woodwind repair technician, so between that and being a mom and wife I don’t have as much time as I used to to crochet, but that doesn’t stop me! Thanks for doing what you do, and inspiring so many our us to keep up with our yarn-crafts! 🙂
what i love about yarn is all the great things i can make!
Knitting with it, the softnessof it and that it is so relaxing
Love all of the colors. Haven’t been able to decided on a pattern choice though.
I have entered. My favorite things about yarn is feeling the softness and the colors. Seeing it knitted or crocheted into something beautiful.
Yarn calms, soothes, relaxes and inspires me to do beautiful work with natural materials. This silk Borealis yarn may become a wall hanging in my next weaving class here at our local Art Center; for now i am letting it talk to me as it tells me what it wants to become in its next incarnation.
Thank you so much for being an artist who is willing to share her reations with the world.
I entered. Yarn is this beautiful, soft smile you get to manipulate with your hands.
I love yarn,all different colors and textures……I love what can be made with yarn… I love to knit and crotchet
Entered! I love all the different colors of yarn… it makes me happy just looking at my stash and thinking about all the possibilities!
What do I love about yarn?
What I love most about yarn is how versatile it is. I am in the middle of my very first project. I am making 2 baby blankets for a friend of mine who is due 10/01 with twin girls. The yarn I am using is so soft and I enjoy the fact that it is able to be washed and dried so my friend doesn’t have to worry about stains.
When I was younger my grandmother ran a yarn shop out of her shop (used to be the garage). I would run downstairs (because she couldn’t) and get the order that her friends would place ready and take it upstairs. She tried teaching me how to crochet, but because she was left handed and I am right handed, it didn’t work out. I got some books from the local library and have had a few lessons from a lady that I go to church with. I am loving crocheting. I am getting ready to crochet a Bible Cover and bookmark for my new bible.
I also signed up for the news letter for the August giveaway.
my favourite thing about yarn is that the endless possible things you can made with the various techniques and stitches. It is a very basic thing, but when you can knit/ crochet. it will become a textile piece which you can piece it to do other pieces of things like a clothing/bag/ accessories. Loving yarn. 😀
I entered !
What I loooove about yarn, it’s the infinite possibilities it’s offering. I’d love to craft a fluffy carpet made out of many different yarns. Wouldn’t you let your toes get tickled when you get out of bed at the morning ? Could you imagine a better way to start the day ? Tada ! Sunshine ! (sorry, english is not my first language, I’m doing my best, guys)
xx
I entered. My favorite thing about yarn is all the colors and textures. You can use for many different projects, not just knit/crochet.
I have entered.
I love colors, colors, and more colors…what’s NOT to love about yarn!?!?
I have want to knit with silk yarn but could not afford it. I would love to beable to have some and create some of the project I see. I see these colors and I see new horizons with great ideas.
Lately I’ve been trying to get away from acrylics and sacrifice quantity for better quality yarns. The new thing I am loving about some of these natural fiber yarns is the pure beauty and softness when it glides across my needles. My projects have a lovely sheen now! I am glowing and in love with my yarn all over again.
I love yarn for the comfort and beauty it brings to my life and gifts to those I love.
I am an email subscriber, so jumping to number 2…I entered, I LOVE yarn. It is so soothing after a long day at work to come home to my knitting or crocheting. It’s like meditation. I have osteo-arthritis and fibromyalgia, so having a soothing activity after work is a must. I love the colors you are giving away this month….they are my favorites….pinks and purples. I just might make something for me for a change.
I just want to say that your yarns are the most pretty colours I have ever seen, & I would so like to see & feel the silk yarn & work it up.I am now in a Nursing Home so I cannot buy any more yarn but I brought quite a bit with me. I have now got Parkinson’s but when I knit & crochet my hands & arms do not shake & the”parkinson’s”is not on my mind .
I entered! I love how yarn is an artist’s palette of texture and color. We knitters are artists.
What I love about yarn is the potential that it has. It’s a blank canvas that can be anything with a little work.
I entered and my favorite thing about yarn is EVERYTHING!!!!
I have never try the silk yarns. I would love to try them for scarves. I love all those beautiful colors that you have.
Hi, I’ve entered!
My favorite thing about yarn is that no matter what preconceived notions I have about it when it’s in hank/ball/skein form, I’m pleasantly surprised how knitting, soaking and blocking will create a refined, beautiful creation that I’m proud to give as a gift, donate or covet for myself! 🙂
Thanks, Chandi!
The colors! The textures! Natural fibers, silk, alpaca, quality wool…and then just taking a couple of sticks and a bit of string and MAKING something from it. Never ending joy!
I am so in love with the colors. They are simply gorgeous! Please enter me!
I entered this month’s giveaway. The colors of your yarn are so beautiful. I also like the feel of the yarn when I am knitting or crocheting.
I entered. I love all of the beautiful colors and textures of yarn.
I see some beautiful scarves or cowls in that bag of delicious exquisiteness (don’t you just love hyperbole?). I was an art major, once upon a time, and when I see some beautiful yarn, I instantly start looking for the pattern that has my name on it. I really would like an excuse to start shopping for that pattern, so PLEASE make that bag mine! 🙂
I love yarn for many reasons. it lets me create, relax, it transforms into beautiful things, it makes my cat sit in my lap, it has created a circle of friendships ever growing in our knitting group, it introduced me to beads and making jewelry. but mostly. It makes me SMILE!
I entered your lovely giveaway! The thing I love most about yarn is that it’s so versatile! Not only are there different fibers to choose from, there are also hundreds of thousands of projects you can make!
I love the way the yarn feeling as I am working with it. Not only is it meditative but watching the pattern emerge is very exciting.
Entered for the August draw. Such beautiful colors. What do I love about yarn…hmmm the peacefulness of the gentle slip and slide of the needles while I am creating something. The feel of the yarn as it slips through my fingers and tells me what it should be….The knowing that I can create something beautiful with only two sticks and some incredible colored yarn.
I just LOVE all the colors – i am amazed at how many different combinations I can find out there!!! Not enough time to knit everything I want!!!
I love knitting and I love to take a yarn and create an accessory for one of my friends who love to wear them.
OMG
Your photo of above the clouds is unbelievable. Can I come visit?
I love these silk yarns. Can I win please, please?

I entered!
I *adore* yarn to no end! It reminds me of happy days spent with my grandmother before she passed away. With it I am able to make wonderful things for my husband and children and dogs (who are like very fuzzy kids to me). I love the feel of it in my fingers, and I’ve been known to bury my face it when I see it!
I love the colors of your yarn. It brings summer inside.
I have entered this monthly give-away because the idea of having all that yarn for free is irresistible! What a blessing that we have this marvelous tool that enables us to create all kinds of things out of what originally was one strand of material! I love the texture, colors, and feel of yarn. I love the plasticity of yarn as a media. My favorite thing about yarn is seeing what a person’s imagination can do when combining different kinds of yarn of different textures and colors.
Entered. My favorite thing about yarn is that it is what ties one artist to another to nature — It tells the story of a journey — from wool, to silk and where it came from through all of the hands it passes through. Yarn tells that story and it tells the knitter in me what it wants to be. My needles are there to help it along the way!
I entered. I love the feel of certain yarns as they pass between my fingers.
I love the endless possibilities that yarn represents! Each skein can be anything, and it’s my challenge to figure out what it will become.
I love all yarn!
I love holding it and feeling it go through my fingers
would love to give yarn to my special sister-in-law who knits like a dream
Variegated silk? My heart is fluttering already! I love the feel and the drape. I feel a little like a movie star when I wear something silk.
I LOVE crocheting and can’t go a day without creating something for a loved one or friend or to sell to earn money to buy more yarn so I can crochet some more. To me, yarn in its variety of colors and textures provides a medium unlike any other; it is the perfect way for me to create and share something personal with others. You could say I’m “hooked” on yarn!
I love yarn because it gives me a sense of worth and pride when I finish a proj. either for someone or myself. I just dropped off a sweater for the AV Fair here in Lancaster, CA, we will see how I do.
I love the way it makes me feel when I look at the finished product and realize that I began with a single strand of yarn. My masterpiece.
I just entered for the August giveaway! I love knitting and crocheting because it takes my mind off of everything else going on in my life. The texture of the yarn, watching my creations take shape and the beautiful colors of your yarn are better than taking any pill to bring me peace. I’m in the process of teaching my eleven year old granddaughter to crochet and it relaxes her as much as it does me! She takes her crocheting with her where ever we go and works on her scarf in the car and on the school bus. Keep the beautiful colors and textures coming!
Oooops, I forget to tell you that I entered.
Hi, Chandi — Just entered the August yarn giveaway! What do I like most about yarn? It never ceases to amaze me that you can sit down with a ball of string and turn it into the most amazingly beautiful, one-of-a-kind garments and accessories — things you’ll NEVER see in any store anywhere!!

I’ve knit from my youth into my Golden years. Knitting allows me a vacation in each stitch I make when I am unable to take a vacation. I process life and find so much joy with the twisted stitch my hands and needles create. It so Zen like. Every knitter has experienced this at some point in their life.
I am entering because I love how yarn allows me to create things. It is the one craft that I always come back to.
I love yarn. The way each type feels between my fingers; how some shine or gleam. I love how each skein inspires me to try a new stitch or pattern. Tarn makes me happy – or *happier*!

I have previously entered & joined your wonderful website. I would be so excited to win your wonderful, “attention getter” silk yarn! I have a true passion for crocheting & I enjoy creating new & different items.

Love trying out new kinds, the difference created by a change in color or fiber content is just wonderful!
I love the variety and versatility of yarn. One yarn can produce very distinct results when knit on large or small needles, felted or made into tassels or fringe.

I ENTERED THE CONTEST. I LOVE THE WAY THAT YARN WAKES UP ALL OF OUR SENSES, TEXTURE, SIGHT/COLOR, EVEN SMELL. IT TAKES US BACK TO OUR EARLY DAYS OF HISTORY AND REMINDS US OF A SIMPLER TIME WHEN CRAFTSMANSHIP GOD AND LOVE WERE INCORPORATED IN EVERYTHING WE MADE. CREATIVITY AND FUNCTIONALITY WERE CHANNELED THROUGH EACH PERSON UNIQUELY, EACH SKEIN OF YARN, AND EACH TEXTILE CREATED TELLS A STORY THAT IS A CULMINATION OF DECADES OF OUR FAMILY HERITAGE AND SOCIETAL DEVELOPMENT.
I think I entered!!! I hope I entered!!!! I not only knit but I paint , sew quilts, make dolls, and embroider. The colors of the yarn and the patterns you get from some of them are so awesome.

Yarn just makes me feel so relaxed. The colours and the textures just take me away from all the worries and cares of life. It also inspires my creativity.
Hi Chandi,
I entered your August Yarn Giveaway! I am a self-professed Yarn-a-holic. I LOVE yarn! I believe the thing I love most about yarn is the reaction I get from project recipients…it truly warms my heart knowing I am giving an original, one-of-a-kind, heirloom gift. I treat knitting as my daily meditation and as such, I believe it gives me many, many health benefits and makes me a nicer person.
I love yarn because it has so many textures, colours and uses and many different techniques can be used to put it together; in one word Variety!
Entered I love the fact that you start with just a string of yarn and with the needles it becomes something fabulous and beautiful. I think I have yarn in about every room of my house. Always looking for something new and different I only wish I could afford the nicer yarns, but at least I can do something to keep me busy
I entered!! I love everything about yarn!!!!!!!!!!
I too have had a life-time love affair with yarn. My Mom tought me to crochet when I was 8 years old, and I learned to knit 9 years ago, when I was 50. Why did it take me so long you may ask? My Mom also knit, and she tried to teach me the English, or “throwing” method. I just could never make the transition of holding the yarn in my right hand with two needles, so I gave up. I tried at various times as an adult to teach myself, but it just never ” took”. While visiting my Mom and sister in IL, I wandered into the local yarn shop just to satisfy my curiosity. The shop owner was working on a project, and asked her why it was so difficult for crocheters to learn to knit(I thought she was crocheting). She said, “It’s not, here watch me”. It was then I noticed the two needles, but she was holding the yarn in her left hand! I had a “light bulb” moment, and took to it like a duck to water. Needless to say I have been knitting happily away ever since then.
What I LOVE about yarn is: The Color, the feel, and patters that are challenging to me.
I love your web site, and the newsletter. I started out by following you on Facebook. Thanks for what you do!
Its impossible to pick a favorite. If i were to say my favorite thing about yarn, it would have to be texture. I love all of the different blends i can get my jands on, i live in New Orleans, so its really hard to find a variety here seeing as how its always so hot. I really love many things about yarn though, i love the rich colors, i love the creative outlet it gives me. It is my sanity when things are insane. I love your yarn because of all tje rich colors. You have a beautiful array of beautiful rich colors. Anyway, i really hope to win!
I love the way yarn feels passing through my fingers as I knit. The finer the yarn, the happier my hands and I are. Then when the finished product comes off the needles, I get such a feeling of accomplishment. I would welcome the opportunity to work magic on my needles with this exquisite batch of fabulous yarn. It could be the ultimate, “fibergasm”.
I L-O-V-E yarn, anything about yarn!! I love touching it, knitting with it, crocheting with it, or even just dreaming about it!! I have so much yarn, it will take three lifetimes to knit it all! I’ve entered the contest and HOPE to WIN!! Lots of yarn to play in!
The thing I love most about yarn is it’s almost endless choice if creative uses. The same skien of yarn can produce so many different and wonderful creations that it is impossible to become bored with it. There is always some new to try out 🙂
You really do have some of the most beautiful yarns with some of the most beautiful names. Love your web site!!!!!!
HI Chandi,
Fibers are amazing! working with them is satisfying, humbling and calming. It’s easy to take them for granted when they are on ya, yet they can turn into one of the best gifts when woven with love. I hope to turn my gift giving abilities purely towards weaving and feeling the material that itself is grown with intention.
Hi.
Please include me in the contest. I have always loved yarn, I began crocheting as a little girl with my wonderful Auntie. I had learned to knit, but I started crocheting and I loved it more. I love the different textures and colors of yarn, I just love to go to a store where I can touch all the varieties of yarns, thick or thin and see the myriad rainbow of colors. Your colors are fabulous! I love them. I just wish I could touch them, but it isn’t the same through my computer screen:) but they are so lovely! Keep up the good work!

I love that yarn is a beautiful possibility!

After a stressful day I can get lost in a soft yarn project
Yarn is my paint and my muse. The look and feel of it inspires me.
Yarn is a stress release and a beautiful gift I can give to others. I love how I can make almost anything and it turns out amazing even if everything else in my life is messy and chaotic.
Entered your August yarn giveaway. I love the possibilities with yarn. And I absolutely love that I can turn a simple, methodical motion into a beautiful craft project. I raised sheep for years and never truly appreciated wools and yarns until I learned to knit.
I love that with needles or a hook, yarn becomes an extension of my creative soul and with that I can make gifts of myself to my loved ones!
I love yarn! I love the colors, fibers, and its uniqueness. There is nothing like starting a new project with a yarn I’ve never used before. It’s like reading a good book and becoming so engrossed in the characters that you’re sad when the story ends. That’s what it is like when I finish a project. It is like saying goodbye to dear friend (especially since I give most of my projects away!) Yarn…it is the fabric of my life and I don’t think I could ever be with out it. Thanks for your wonderful blog and yarns!
love great colors to knit for my grandchildren!
I entered!
I love everything about yarn! From the colors to the textures yarn can be a thing of beauty.
Love it!
I hope I entered correctly! What don’t I like about yarn? The feel, color it just excites all your senses and seeing what people do with it is such a gift in itself! I am addicted and have made so many wonderful friends in the process! It is a constant learning process and I can’t seem to get enough of it! I leave this weekend for Midwest Stitiches and can’t wait to look at more yarn!
I love yarn because it is beautiful & deep! There is a strength and love & beauty in it. And to know how much time, effort & love went into it and whatever is created from it, is actually ridiculously inspiring & moving… To me anyway! 🙂
I entered the yarn August giveaway. I love the color, texture and the way yarn “speaks” to me and inspires me to create something beautiful and lasting with it.
What I love about yarn, the colors, the textures, the endless possibilities. I love to feel the textures and visualize who make out what what for who with it.
I have been knitting for many years and all the different yarns and colors that are on the market now are so amazing. I want to make so many things. I love creating things for my grandchildren.
i love color!! there are sooo many possibilities with yarn!
Yarn can take you to a happy place.
Somewhere bright and bubbly, soft and fluffy.
It inspires and with the help of your needle or hook it transforms before your very eyes; taking stress and worries away.
(I entered)
Sometimes I see some yarn and think I have the perfect pattern for that – or I will find a pattern. Then sometimes I’ll see a pattern and I will go in search of the yarn that will be perfect for it.
Oh, the possibilities!
I entered. Yarn is an expression of my inner self, the colors I work with show how I feel about myself and the world around me. I like bright and happy colors that uplift me.
I entered the contest this month. I love yarn because it brings me pleasure in making things and peace/contentment as I execute the patterns and see how the colors realize themselves.
My favorite thing about yarn is the real feel on my hands that they give me. I love the lanolin that comes out and makes them soft. It is also very thrilling to see it being made into something I can use, or that someone can use. It is a precious thing to be creative!
I’m entering! I love yarn because it make me relaxed and takes my stresses. Knitting and crocheting at the end of the day takes my cares away.
I entered the contest as one can never have too much yarn, nor too many bags. I love yarn as most of my knitting is for others, mainly prayer shawls, and there is a warmth, a spiritual connection that I feel as I knit. It’s relaxing and productive. I love the feel in my hands and spirit.
I’ve entered! 🙂
My favorite part about yarn is that the colors and textures are endless. And each color, texture and fiber has a purpose or you can do and make whatever you want. I enjoy creating things with my hands and with yarn the possibilities are immense.
I love the textures of crochet, I love the softness that knitting gives. What I love the most is the accomplishment and of course the smile I get back when I give it as a gift.

I hope I did this right and entered. Your yarns are in inspiration to think outside the box and allow me to create beautiful knit or crochet items for my grand children and other members of our family. Knitting and crocheting keep me from falling into a deep black hole that seems to be around too often since being in a car accident.

I love color whether it’s in glass, yarn, wood, nature, etc…. I also like black and white. The absence and the all of color. I don’t knit but I’ve signed up for classes this Fall. I crochet hats and afghans and this yarn would be wonderful. <3
What’s not to love!

I have 3 grandsons, I want to learn to knit socks for them and sweaters, hats, etc. I hope I win!
Thank you for offering the contest for August. Your yarns are beautiful. I am waiting patiently for my new job to begin in order to fund a new project of my own. I haven’t worked full-time since October 2011–just 2 part-time stints for 1 and 2 months, respectively. I am looking forward to many knitting projects.
my favorite thing is making kids clothes. It allows to use bright colors and very creative motivs.
Love knitting and always looking for new patterns and yarn for projects. I do have a stash but it is dwindling FAST, knitting for all the new babies at church – 15 so far this year – 12 already here and three more on the way.

I can make just about anything my heart desires with yarn…and it relaxes me–I have a high stress job and yarn helps me to escape the drama and hectic nature of my life for a little while and immerse myself in the beauty of yarn and patterns.
I entered because it would feel so good petting each and every color and texture so that each could inspire me to make some gorgeous pieces
Yes, i entered! I have always loved everything about yarn… the colors, the textures, the ability to make beautiful things from yarn. I like buying it, dying it, spinning, weaving, crocheting… and a little knitting with it! I love seeing your posts, colors, and the things you are making. Wonderful enthusiastic light!
Hmm same thing that happened last time I never got the confirmation email… I know I’m typing my email in right.
I’d have to say my favorite thing about yarn is the way it feels as you’re knitting and stacking up little loops that magically make something wonderful.
I love loom knitting! My favorite thing about yarn is not only the feel but the projects that come out of it. I love making special gifts for special people and give more away then I sell!
I entered contest.
Yarn
I love the promise in a skein of yarn. It can be sooo many things and for any number of people. Like marble was to Rodin, yarn is to the needleworker. If you listen closely, it will tell you what it should become.
My very favorite things about yarns are the textures & colors!!! There’s nothing quite like gently rubbing your face against a super-soft yarn, and then knitting a vividly-colored garment or accessory to fight the dreariness of Winter (*sigh*)
I love your yarn. The colours and sheen are lovely. I enjoy crochet and knitting. Just love the feeling of yarn slipping through my fingers.
My favorite thing about yarn is the comfort it provides: as a yarn, soft and squishy in my hands, as a project in the making and the catharsis that comes with making, as a finished project made with love
i entered!
Yarn is scrumptious and and makes my heart sing…
My favourite thing about yarn is the creative energy it releases. From something so natural and simple a new and fantastic creation can be made. There is no end to the things that can be made, the joy it brings. As a single mom it is hard to buy my son all the fancy action figures, but with a little yarn and some cuddle time and maybe a movie or two, Voila! His very own, one of a kind action figure is created… And it shows him how much I love him and how creative a person can be.
I love all the things you can do with yarn and all the beautiful colors!
Yarn……Love. Colors make me happy, textures are comforting. I have entered the Aug. giveaway so hopefully I will win and and be even more happy and comforted!
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to ‘win’ some of your gorgeous yarn!!!
Yarn not only gives me the ability to create a beautiful piece of wearable art, but also the ability to ‘ease’ my ‘knotted’ mind!! Keep up your great talent!!
I just entered. My favorite thing about yarn is the memories your creations make.
What I like about yarn is: Soft, variety, colors, squishy, knitting it, everything.
I Love the colors & different textures! I can not believe how long I can spend in the yarn section choosing yarn. I just started to chrochet & knit and I am having so much fun picking out yarn! Thank you for the great give away!
I entered for a chance to win the yarn giveaways.
What I love about yarns is that it can be used from the simplest form of -warming a cold night- to -saving many lives-. I became engrossed with crochet because at first, I wanted to make sweaters for my dogs, and the projects I made made them warm when it’s rainy and cold. It made me realize that I can donate some of the sweaters/wraps I make to animal rescue organizations for comfort.
Learning and helping at the same time is a small gift I can pay forward to the world. It makes me feel alive and happy. =)
I love yarn you know I do
Pink and grey or green and blue
Knotted old or smooth brand new
Yarn’s my crafty friend so true
I love making new things for my friends and family. I love sharing my love of crochet and the many things you can create with it. I believe it can bring many people together with all different backgrounds and ages. I absolutely love yarn and the possibilities it can yield.
Entered for another month! Yarn and knitting is relaxing and productive.
I entered 🙂 the thing i love about yarn is the potential one ball of yarn can make so many different things and most of all it can bring a smile to someones face just a simple thing like making a scarf for someone or a blanket lets them know you care. sometimes just looking at yarn can inspire you to make something you would never of thought of yarn is basically fluffy soft balls of happiness ,inspiration , potential and comfort and it will always put a smile on my face (until it tangles then it is annoying lol) 🙂 x
Yarn gives me a way to express myself in a unique way. Although the skeins of yarn are made from the same dye lot, they blend together differently and express individuality. I love to hear comments of: “Where did you buy that?” When in reality, there’s only one of each of my creations, and cannot be purchased at any store. Loe the varieties of yarns that you have available.
I shop for yarn, at least twice a week. I do not care what kind of store it is, first thing I check, is do they have yarn! I love the different weights in yarn, the different fibers, and all the wonderful colors.
I entered to win this super collection of yarns for August 2013
I love to crochet and knit. Learning everyday new techniques and enjoy findin new patterns and the many ways to put things together. Love knitting socks have done a couple sweaters.

A gift I enjoy as well as enjoying seeing the creations of others.
Thanks fir sharing your talent.

Hi, entering the August giveaway. What I love about yarn is that it can be anything you want it to be and that when you give someone a knitted or crocheted garment, it is like a hug from you when they wear it. It is my birthday month this month and to receive this prize would be the gift that will keep on giving!
I entered your awesome yarn giveaway! I love yarn and crocheting because it makes me feel great to give someone something I’ve created. It’s a one of a kind gift that can’t be bought in a store and I think it carries a little bit of my soul on it 🙂
I fell in love with yarn when I was 8-years-old when a neighbor taught me how to crochet; my passion/addiction to yarn grew over the years, and soared when I discovered knitting. Yarn is a dream waiting to become a reality…the colors, textures and possibilities are like jewels of the imagination and creation. I hope I entered correctly for this giveaway!!!
I entered! My favorite thing about yarn is that I become inspired every time I go through my stash, or someone else’s!

There is something about the feel & smell of yarn that brings comfort.
I like to create (knit or crochet) for the people I love and who I know appreciate my time and efforts. Blessings!
I entered because I love to knit and I love all of the different colors and textures of yarn. There’s nothing more rewarding when someone gives you yarn as a gift and you give them back something beautiful that you created with it. My sister-in-law from Oregon gave me some gorgeous yarn for Christmas and when she was here in July I gave her a beautiful feather fan scarf made from that yarn and she just raved about it. That makes you feel so good!!!!
I’ve entered the August giveaway. Why do I love yarn? The colors, the textures, the feel, the possibilities are all endless. It brings back memories of watching mom making an afghan for either her and dad or one of the kids/grandkids. Feelings of contentment. And, once that project is finished, feelings of accomplishment. Yarn, good for what ails you.
I love the possibilities yarn holds. Whether you crochet, knit, or craft in general, yarn can become whatever you want it to be. It can turn into a sweater, shawl, hat and or socks. It can be used to make a gift for any age. That’s what makes yarn beautiful to me.

The array of colors… often that is what attracts me to yarn, the color…

I’d like to enter your contest!
The center skein, kind of shiny in a rainbow of colors, really caught my interest. Love how seeing beautiful yarn in lots of colors can fuel my creativity!
What I like about yarn is that it has personality. You take each skien of yarn and it is different in your hand and to work with. Some are easy some are more difficult to work with. With careful handling you can make it into something beautiful that has taken part of your personality.
My favorite thing about yarn is that there is always something new you can make – whether it is the same pattern with a different yarn, or some new cool yarn/cool pattern you have never made before.
My favorite thing about yarn is all of the different things you can crochet from it. I absolutely love doing projects for charity friends and family.

I love how yarn keeps my loved ones warm and brings joy to their faces when I gift them my handmade item.

I definitely entered the August Yarn 2013 Give-Away! Yarn has such potential hidden within it’s fibers. They call out to our senses and allow our imagination and creativity to be displayed. It is such a wonderful process ~ Thanks for sharing the beauty you see in the fibers you share with all of us!
I entered 🙂
I love it to crochet and knit, create all those little things that make my nephew smile. Like the slipper he never take off or the little rhino that has to be in his bed when he visits his grandparents. It makes me smile even on bad days when I have something to crochet and remember my nephew sitting in front of me, his little hands under my hands so we can crochet together. He´s 2 1/2 years old, so he can´t do alone, but he trys. 🙂
Besides this, working with yarn helps me every day to forget for a while, that there is something called narcolepsy in my life, because creating something new just with yarn and needles is amazing to me.
(Hope to win the yarn, because I´m running out of supplies an these silk yarn looks so beautiful, it makes me dream.)
Love the texture of yarn.
I love the beautiful colors of yarn you have…gorgeous! I use my yarn to make baby blankets and hats for NICU at our local hospitals. Once in awhile I make something for myself or my granddaughter..love it! Yarn makes me feel happy!! 🙂
I love the colors, textures, scents, the way I feel enveloped when I am knitting or in a yarn store surrounded by it. Yarn is cozy, comforting, creative and has brought new people and experiences into my life.
Ok, I’ve entered. Love playing with yarn, and the rainbows of colours of yarn!
I signed p. I love the peacefulness of knitting.
I entered your contest. and what I love about yarn is the feel of it, the texture in my hands. plus the amazing colors. I have always loved the creativity of sewing but nowadays I just don’t do it. I find I can sit down with my yarn and needles and even if I only have ten minutes, I can accomplish something. It is also very soothing.
I love the feel of yarn and natural fibres. I love the way a garment that I make for someone looks on them. The smile on their face is the most precious thing. It gives me more energy to create a new wonderful wearable art for someone else! I recently translated a German crochet pattern and shared it with others on Expression Fiber Arts on Facebook. Yarn gives me joy that I can spread to others!
Yes, I want to win!!!!
Yarn make me feel good all over!!! I love making pretty things with yarn and giving it away to all my friends and family!!!
The thing that I love most about yarn is the endless possibilities that come with it. I get so tempted by patterns that I have enough saved on my computer to keep me knitting till the day that I die and I still keep looking for more. Your yarns are amazing.
I love how wool feels while flowing through your fingers. It cant compare to anything else I know.
I am entered. Now waiting by my mail box.
I have entered. I love yarn and the endless possibilities and crafts that can be done with it. From a warm scarf on a cold winter’s night to the softest of blankets to welcome a new child into the world to being the greatest comfort to a loved one leaving this world to all others in between. Yarn is a language all its own and transcends through all language barriers to find a common denominator. Yarn is the best collector’s friend. You hold it, make something with it, give it away, but the memory of that gift remains!!
I love yarn because…..It is soft and squeeshy. I am addicted to it! And always want more. :o)
I entered because I love yarn! It keeps me sane.
I entered because I was thrilled with my first purchase of your yarn and would love to have more! The colors blend smoothly in my project and allow my creativity to expand. More yarn and a beautiful bag would lead to another project!

I love the different textures and colors of yarns. Colors make me feel happy and knitting with them is relaxing! Stress Relief!
Love the look and feel of your yarns. Scrumptious!!!!!
Hi Chandi
I love yarn so much. I love its different textures running through your hand when you are knitting/crocheting, and I love the fact that something as simple as a few balls of yarn can work up to make such beautiful items. The projects you can use yarn for are endless, so yes I’m a hoarder, and I’m still a buyer, LOL. You can never have enough yarn, because companies are always coming up with different yarns, and if you see them you have to buy some because you know there’s something you can use if for – don’t we say that all the time!? I’m disabled and the two things I do when I’m not in too much pain or am sleeping, are coming online to read all my favourite designers blogs or of course knitting/crocheting. So overall, yes – I LOVE YARN for every reason in the world, and more.
Regards
Leah

Yarn and knitting and spinning are my stress relievers. It also keeps my mind going as I am getting older. There is always something to learn. Currently I am trying to understand usage for different yarn, especially any natural yarn, so I can teach my fellow knitters in my knitting club. I LOVE YARN!
I entered. My favorite thing about yarn is that there are so many color choices, textures, blends, that even two projects made with the same pattern pattern can look and feel totally different!

Hi Chandi ! I entered for the August giveaway!
My favorite thing about yarn is the way you play with colors.
I really enjoy every order and would love to have a few skeins of all your new creations !!!
Yarn is a source of comfort for me. I learned to knit (and to love to knit) in the winter of 2012. I was hospitalized in a residential facility that treats eating disorders. These girls knit (and some crochet) like crazy! It is seriously such a healthy coping mechanism, and I can definitely say that knitting has positively impacted my life. I don’t really remember life before I always carried a project around.
I entered because I would love to make some scrumptious things for my grands! They really think I should win 🙂
I love the feel of the yarn in my fingers. Also the art therapy it gives me. Their is little art in my job. It’s a nice chance.
I entered and my favorite thing about yarn is that they are all different and can give pieces different personalities. Like warm, fuzzy, comforting people.
I have entered the August contest and I love yarn because it makes me feel proud of the endless projects I create and the memories I give people by making for example a baby blanket that will be kept for years to come. Starting a project always keeps me up at night because I’m always anxious to see how it will turn out and unfold! LOVE knitting!! 🙂
I entered.
I love everything yarn. What you can make, colors, and making something for someone special.
I’ve entered the contest, Chandi! First I want to tell you how jealous I am of you, growing up in Alaska! I LOVE wearing warm, soft, snuggly clothes and I’ve always lived in the South where I roast in them. Plus, I’ve just always wanted to see Alaska. Now, that should give you a clue about what I love the most about yarn…. It’s the feel! The softer the better! I’m an extremely tactile person, and although I love all the color, it’s touching the fiber that gets me every time!!
I love the wide array of COLORS!! Fabulous darlin’!
I love to see things made with a good color changing yarn, the effect is usually just great. There’s nothing better than a nice set of color changing clothes!
I entered and I love yarn because I can turn nothing into something everywhere I go!
Yarn is medicine for my soul. No matter how frustrating, or scary life can get, nothing is more powerful that spinning, knitting or crocheting, working with yarn yumminess soothes my soul and makes my heart light!
Love your yarns. I’ve used them alone for socks and shawls and with another yarn for hats, scarves, sweaters and socks.
I’ve entered!
Your yarn is so inspiring! I’ve recently bought yarn to dye. I’m so excited!
My favorite thing about yarn is being able to make something special and unique for people and the looks on their faces when they get their project that was made especially for them 🙂
I entered the yarn giveaway and hope and pray I win in order to continue the Prayer Shawl Ministry we started at our church in January. I love yarn because of the beautiful garments of warmth, comfort and prayer that can be woven (knitted or crocheted) and given to those who are ill, grieving, lonely, experiencing difficulties in their lives, or celebrating special events in their lives. The joy and reassurance they give the recipients that they are not alone is so worth the time and effort…and love poured into each stitch.
I love the endless possibility of yarn. I can dream about projects I want to make while I enjoy the color and feel of the yarn. It is the therapy that helps me to leave the world behind for a while and just let the rhythm of the work sooth my soul.
I thought I had already entered but here I go, I hope hope I get it!! So much fun and you have awesome colors and textures.
Love the feel and look of yarn garments, especially homemade items. Love to squish yarn.

I am already subscribed. 🙂
My favorite thing about yarn is the practicality and beauty of it. There are endless possibilities for the yarn, but it can be just as nice to simply look at and touch. It’s hard to explain this to non-crafters, but I know that you understand. 🙂
I love that yarn itself can be in a dazzling array of different colors/textures/weights which can then be combined in an endless number of ways to make just about anything!
Already a subscriber, and entering this giveaway. I love scrolling through your yarns Chandi, and I think Santa Claus is bringing me some this Christmas.
I live yarn for the color, the texture, the warmth, the potential in each skein, it’s forgiving nature, its portability, it’s timelessness. There’s not much about it I don’t like!
Yarn just makes the world go around lol. It is the sunshine of my day and in darkest days, has been my saving grace. My dear friend of 30yrs has been undergoing breast cancer treatment and has told me about the knitted beanies, blankets and lap rugs which have covered her with love while she underwent her treatments. These items, knitted by other women who’d had the disease, gave her great comfort and assurance that she was not alone…..that the well wishes and hugs of every woman who’d put their time and energy into them, was with her each time she visited the hospital. I’d love to be able to ‘gift’ Beryl with this figurative ‘bunch of flowers’ ( all the gorgeous colours of the rainbow) to tell her how much I adore her so she can contribute as a knitter and crocheter herself, to this wonderful tradition of sisterhood and support for fellow cancer sufferers.
I’ve entered the August giveaway and would be absolutely thrilled to win. I’ve knit since I was a child and just recently, while unemployed, discovered crochet. Up until this point I have always used what yarn I could find at Michaels. The chance to work with this beautiful yarn has my head spinning with possibilities.
Because I’ve been spending a lot more time at home, my crafting has been geared towards home decor. I want to do my office/craft room in bright rainbow colors to inspire creativity, and think the yarn your giving away would be stunning for my plans.
Good luck to all.
The thing I like about yarn is the tactile feel of it and all the varitations of types it. Smooth, soft, corse. Also I I thinking about where it came from and how it was made and what it will be made into.
I have entered the August yarn giveaway, what I love about yarn is the way it feels gliding through my fingers when I am working on a project that took days or weeks for me to find just the right masterpiece to create with this oh so wonderful piece of string. I love how I can make something out of nothing, I love the different texture and I love the feeling of creating something with my own hands it gives me such a sense of pride and acomplishment. Wow the power of yarn!!!
I LOVE yarn!!! The possibilities of each skein are endless.! I have more trouble DECIDING what a yarn will become than I do talking myself into buying it.
I have entered your August drawing. The thing I love most is the color and texture to create wonderful creations.
I love to knit and crochet. It really does make me feel good to see the expressions on friends and family members faces when you give them a gift that was custom made just for them. I also love to try new yarn types and textures and see how yarn artist but colors together for projects I want to make. I hope this is my entry. 🙂
I entered the contest!! 🙂 I actually have a few favorite things about yarn! I love it’s versatility and how it can be used for not only knitting & crocheting but for jewelry making, yarn weaving, gift wrapping, basic crafting and so much more! I also love that yarn can come in an almost endless array of colors and color combinations! I LOVE color and I love what beautiful creations come from multicolored yarn! But I think the thing that I love most of all about yarn, is that calming and relaxing feeling I get when working with it when I crochet. I took up crocheting only a year and a half ago, back in 2012, when my 3yr old daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia. I was a few months pregnant and needed a way to keep calm throughout everything she and our family were facing, and crocheting was it. The repetitive motion and the feel of the yarn running over my fingers was such a calming, comforting and soothing feeling. It has been, in essence, my mind saving grace over these last 17 months while she has been in treatment and definitely will be from now on!!!
Yarn is so versatile. It allows you to use your imagination to create many
different projects.
The colors are awe inspiring. I have entered the August yarn giveaway.
I have subscribed. And I love yarn because it’s such a useful and clever thing. You can take a single thread, which may seem useless, and through knotting make such useful and pretty things! It just makes me smile
Oh boy, asking me what I like about yarn is about as easy to answer as “What do you like about life?” Everything! It comes in many textures from scratchy (and sometimes I want that!) to super soft. It comes in every color of the rainbow. It’s useful! It’s warm. It’s beautiful! I could go on, but I won’t. Oh, and I did enter (or at least I think I did). Thanks!
Hi, Chandi, I entered your August yarn giveaway!!! <3 I absolutely love the scrumminess of yarn, and the infinite amount of colors you can use. All those choices-the mind boggles! <3
I am new to knitting, I am a member and what I love most about yarn is that with as little as yarn, and two knitting needles, the possibilities are endless. Soft or rough, with one or many colours, we are creating art with these simple tools and who doesn’t love yarn in the cold fall and winter months? Especially here in Quebec, Canada where there winters can last up to 9 months long!!! The best tool for the best climate!
entered! My favorite thing about yarn is the endless possibilities. All of the different fibers, colors and textures and how the choice of yarn can completely transform a pattern.
I entered.
My favorite thing about yarn is the fabric it makes and the joy it brings to so many.
I have entered! What I love most about yarn is the possibilities – depending on how it’s used, it can become so many different things. The same strand of yarn could become a beautiful pair of socks, a cozy sweater, a squishy, fun toy, or a nice, warm blanket. Thank you for the opportunity, and I look forward to seeing more on your site!
I’ve been knitting and doing croche since my early childhood. It is so soothing and creative. I love making presents for my family and friends.
Entered. My favorite thing about yarn is it’s versatility. From weight to color.
entered!!!! my favorite thing about yarn is how many different and special things you can make with all the different textures and colors its great:-)
I love silky and wooly yarns (they feel great when you’re crocheting with them!). Crochet is so versatile and entertaining, it’s my favorite craft. I’ve been crocheting for only about 2 years, but I’ve taught some friends to crochet and I tried teaching my mom once. I would love to win this giveaway! Thanks!
I am a member and I hope to be able to win some of your yarn someday!
I entered! My love of yarn and crocheting starting a little under a year ago and has not stopped since.

Need to boost my stash! I will enter every month, some day I’ll win, right? 😉
I entered and my favorite thing about yarn is all the beautiful colors and the things you can make
Whats not to love about yarn! The ultimate stress reliever!
I love the millions of things you can do with yarn.
I love yarn because I can take it and make a blanket or dish cloths or scarves and give them to my friends and family 🙂
Entered! Favorite thing about yarn is the endless possibilities of it. On hank or ball could become so many things. And the colors! The colors give me happy feelings! lol
For me it is therapy. Taking the string and making it into something both useful and beautiful. And it helps me to keep the use of my one hand. I lost 30% of the use of my right arm due to a spinal injury.
Entered!
I love making gifts out of yarn. I taught myself how to knit, and I didn’t have anyone say,”You can’t do that, it is too hard!” I love the way yarn feels while I am working with it. And I love the way finished projects look when I am done.
I entered! (hopefully it doesn’t matter that I live in Canada 🙂 ) I love how proud my grandchildren are when I give them something that I knit. I love picking out the yarn, pattern and of course the actual knitting process.
I don’t think I can just pick one favorite thing about yarn!! So the first thing that comes to mind is the smell, the first thing I do when I get my hands on new yarn is smell it. I’m sure there is some childhood reason why I do this but I really can’t recall! My husband thinks it is so funny, he now tries to beat me home to check the main when he knows new yarn is coming so he can say he smelled it first! HA!
I have only recently found your website/blog and would be honored to win this as I’ve not yet been fortunate enough to get a chance to buy any. It’s BEAUTIFUL!
Entered. I am a tactile person who just loves to feel yarn, the softer the better. MMMMMMMM!

I entered into your August Giveaway because the yarn is beautiful and who wouldn’t want a cool bag to carry around their knitting project.

I entered. What I love about yarn is the sense of accomplishment I get when creating something by hand. My nephew is amazed that I can make him things that he doesn’t have to buy at a store. I also love that it is forgiving of mistakes. Just pull it out and fix it up.
I’ve entered and I just love the explosions of color that you are able to create.
Love different yarns. I have a lot of Christmas gifts to make and I like to use unusual yarns so the recipient can’t just walk into any store and find the exact same think.

Hello! I have to say my favorite thing about yarn is the endless potential a new skein has. Like a blank sheet of paper waiting to be written on, the little bundle of glorious yarn thrills and inspires me with the excitement of creating something new and unique. The beautiful colors and textures ask to be woven into something wonderful, and I’m always going to answer with enthusiasm (along with shrinking storage space!).

Actually unsure if I had already entered. I love the many colors of yarn! So easy on the eyes!
because you can make almost anything with yarn!
Growing up with Wyoming winters we had to have indoor hobbies when it was too cold to play. So, as a child it provided hours of entertainment – especially when the power went out. As an adult playing pretend isn’t very appropriate anymore. Some may think you’re crazy if you talk to yourself. Yarn allows me to be creative in ways I haven’t been able to be since playing as a kid. I can make anything! No, I haven’t made a fort with yarn, but if I put my mind to it, I bet I could!
I forgot to mention that I’ve entered!
Entered. Favorite thing? There are so many. Color, texture annd endless possibilities once you get started. I crochet; can’t seem to get the hang of knitting. At least not yet.
Its almost overwhelming for me when I look at skeins of yarn (especially yours) because there are so many possibilities of what I can turn it into. I have 3 kids under 3 and being able to slow down…even if its for only 30 minutes (Usually less). I pick up my hook and yarn and it’s MY time now. I love how it allows me to slow down, think, and gives me that breath of fresh air that a SAHM needs. I love the way it glides through my fingers and shows me how it wants be. 😉
I entered and I love to crochet, because I have severs arthritis in my hands, and it allows me to keep my fingers moving! 🙂
I have buckets of yarn, waiting for the next hat, scarf, sweater, shawl, blanket. I love taking that thin piece of material and turning it into something that is made with love that will keep someone I love warm. 🙂
I have entered. Yarn is an experiment in creativity. It has no limits.
I entered this give away. The things I love most about yarn, are the colors, the textures, and the amazing things you can make with it.
Entered for the August giveaway :0)
I love the diversity in yarn color and texture. There are so many variations of both, from very coarse to heavenly soft, from muted earthy tones to vivid brights in every shade. But the very best thing is that yarn represents possibilities. Endless possibilities. And the promise of a fresh start with each new skein. And how could you not love that?
Yay! I would be soooo excited to win this yarn giveaway … always love your stuff!
I entered, and yarn is cuddly!

I love the way yarn feels when you touch it & I love all the colors… it’s eye candy to me
Maybe some people just see a ball of yarn. I see inmense possibilities. The texture, the color, the feel of it next to your skin. Just think what you can make with it. The list is endless. Or maybe I just love yarn, when I think of bringing home a suvenier from some place I go to I think of yarn. Crazy.
I love all the colors …. I see shawls and and and ! lol
Entered, sorry got carried away thinking of yarn. lol
Hello. I am a great Granny to 3 little ones and a Granny to 7. I used to knit & crochet years ago when my children. Then I was divorced and starting sewing to make money to support my children. A new neighbor move in next door and she is a master at knitting & crocheting. So I picked it back up and have been making blankets for the GGchildren and we all love. She showed me your website and I got plenty of ideas and help form you. Your yarn is beautiful and I would love to try some.

Hi! I entered your luscious yarn giveaway! :). I love the colors, the different textures and the many many fabulous things you can do with and make from yarn! How you can take a pair of needles or a hook and knot it into something so amazing !

I knit and knitting is the only thing i can always do any time of the day without getting tired of it.
I love many things about yarn — the colors, different textures, and the many things that can be made with yarn. I even like to just sit and look at the different types of yarn.
Sorry if this a duplicate entry. I thought I’d entered but I don’t see a post I recognize as mine. So I’m entering now! I love everything about yarn! The colors, the textures, the ability to “pet” the pretty yarn and then knit it into something fun, fashionable or whatever! I find knitting to be a true stress reliever. I feel most stressed when I haven’t been knitting.
Hey, new visitor, just entered your contest. I knit and crochet, though currently trending more towards the knit end of the spectrum. I would have to say, my favorite thing about yarn…
…it would have to be how it feels as it slips steadily through my fingers. Like watching a child growing, we stitch away. Our project takes form and shape and being from our steady laboring. Minutes and hours ticking away as our hooks sweep, our needles click and swoosh gently, dancing with a simple string, till at long last, our fingers rest, and our new creation is born. Part of our being is worked into every piece we make. Time we can never take back. Effort and toil and thought, expended for this exquisitely unique work of art to come into existence. The drama and the emotion of it all, is swept between my fingers, the potential practically making the fibers hum…
Just entered and subscribed. One thing I like about yarn?…….Comfort.
I’m subscribed. Yarn is great therapy for stress reduction.
just subscribed! i love yarn because it is both useful and beautiful. i love crocheting. it’s very meditative.

I have entered. I love yarn as it is so versatile. I often buy yarn before knowing what I’m going to do with it then it becomes obvious what it should be made into.
I recently bought some aran weight yarn thinking of a cushion cover but it came to me to make it into a bag and I love it. I love your yarns because they are so special and need to be knit into treasured items and not just everyday things.
I entered because I love yarn. When I look at yarn, I see fashion. I see the endless possibilities of cardigans, pullovers, socks, sweater dresses, coats, scarves, gloves, hats, and handbags.

Love yarn, love knitting, love your blog, love you 😉 enough said I think 😉
I love your colors and yarn in general. I crochet, knit mostly and use in crafts like felting, etc. Your color combinations are so stunning. Always…
Yarn has saved my sanity on more than one occasion! The texture, vibrant colors, and possibilities are better than any medication. Yarn kept me company on those long days and nights when my son was in Iraq, and it kept him company while he was over there- yep, I sent him yarn and crochet hooks!! I taught his entire 4th grade class to crochet, and he is actually very good at it!! As a nurse, yarn for knitting or crocheting is the best way to decompress at the end of the day – give me knitting/crocheting with a nice cup of tea or coffee, and who needs medication!!!
Would enjoy the opportunity to knit or crochet with this yarn. The colors are beautiful.
l’m all entered…yarn lets you be sooooo creative

I love yarn because I love texture, in all things- -yarn keeps me in touch with the softer side of life simply by it’s texture alone. You can tell how I’m feeling by the type of yarn I’m fussing with!

Love the colors and the way it feels
your yarns are inspiring and it is so wonderful to see the look on the faces of my family when they get something that I was able to make for them.
I just entered your August giveaway. I love yarn because it comes in all the colors of the rainbow and so many different textures, too!
I’m a subscriber. The thing about having yarn like this is the ability to produce, produce, produce.
Yarn is something that allows me to be as creative as I want, it also gives me a chance to gift someone with love that was created just for them.
I have been addicted to yarn for 70 plus years. And now I am a spinner and can create my own. Yarn is so versatile. So many different things can be made from it.
I entered and it sooooo reminds of of rainbow sherbet, which I could use a cup of right now!

Hello!
I just found you via Stitch Diva (broomstick lace). I love yarn as I’m fascinated by different breeds of sheep, and how where they live in the world affects their fleece. It’s a beautiful, natural material made more lovely by your dyes. I love the meditative effect of making something with beautiful yarn, as I try to do justice to the animals who gave the fleece and the people who spin and dye it.
I forgot to say why I love yarn and lately customized yarn because I believe that the yarn we choose and pattern shows a bit of our personality. Expression thru yarn
Already a subscriber, entered. What I like best about yarn are the colors and textures. The softer the better. I now have a stash accumulated beyond life expectancy, but one can never have too much yarn!
Hi, I’ve entered your contest & what I love about yarn is the way it makes me feel. I get all excited and downright giddy when I’m going to the yarn store.

It took along time to reach the end of the list. Whew. It is easy to say that I am in love with yarn and all things fiber arts. I used to arrange my travel schedule so I could visit the yarn stores in the area. This was especially true on a “bad” day. There is something about the colors and the textures that can turn a bad day into a good one. I just got my first purchases from your site and I am extremely pleased. Perhaps my luck will be good and a bit more yarn will come my way.

Entered.my favorite thing about yarn is being able to make things from simple yarn, like hats, blankets, scarfs. I am still very new to knitting and love it with a passion, just wish I had more time to do it.
I just entered the give away, and I love the way a project comes together after spending all that time working with it.
I love to knit. Some times I think I am obsessed with yarn. Have a large amount of yarn.
I am indeed a subscriber.
What I love about yarn is, well, everything! I love the feel of it in my fingers, I love watching my kids play with it and make awesome things (they’re both learning to knit, finger knit, crochet, and finger crochet), I love watching the cats play in the scraps, I love seeing the things that a simple piece of colored string can become!
Yarn is almost magical! It starts out unassuming, then with a bit of love, care, and skill it becomes something new and beautiful!
I like the way it can lift someone’s mood. It feels like a big hug from the special person that made whatever the item you are wearing.
I entered!!! My favorite thing about yarn is that It tells its own stories! Each yarn (commercial or hand spun/hand dyed) all have their own personalities and attributes. I especially love the hand dyed and hand spun (as I dabble in both and share the love of fiber as you do!!!!) I love how yarn speaks to me when I see it…. and then (sometimes a couple years later) tells me something else! Some yarns say, “Hi, I’m going to be a shawl knitted on big needles so I can be shown off!” While others say, ” I don’t know what you are going to do with me, but you know you think I’m sexy” lololol! I love how the finished item truly tells the story of its beginnings…. and woven in ends:) Some yarns progress into wonderful striping, while other remain constant and allow you to show off your Crochet or knitting skills! Sorry my answer was long winded Chandi, I just really love fiber too!
What fascinates me about that yarn is not just the absolutely fabulous colors, but the way each seems to have different texture, reflecting light differently, and depth in contrast.
I have entered your contest. My favorite thing about yarn would that it is such a relaxation tool. No matter what kind of day you have had, when you pick up some yarn and start working with it, you always feel so much better.
Hi! I entered! My favorite thing about yarn? I LOVE yarn of all sorts! I have crocheted for a lot of years, and more than ever now at age 47 I find that yarn keeps me company, is a “friend” to me if that makes sense. I have become disabled with degenerative arthritis in 2 discs in my back, shoulders, mid back, knees, complications of diabetes with neuropathy affecting my legs and making them hurt so bad between that and the arthritis walking is torture and much of the time impossible without a power wheelchair, or minimum use of a 4 wheeled walker. I spend most of my waking hours in a recliner with my feet up and in pain, but find crocheting and exploring with different yarns and patterns keeps me company and fills the hours while my husband is working. I am not one to just watch t.v. all day…I’d be bored to sleep! I must be busy and yarn and crocheting keeps me busy and challenged! I make family gifts each Christmas with yarn, sell some of the items I make to help supplement our income a tiny bit, and it feels good to also make a lot of little blankets and small hats and donate to children’s hospital for the needy. I also live in WA state near 2 military bases (McChord Air Force and Fort Lewis Army), so I make several items and donate to the Wounded Warriors Project. I make hats, lap size blankets for those who are injured and in wheelchairs, slippersocks for them. Feels good to have the time to do all these projects and to be able to help in some way even in my pain and disability I stay motivated and functioning! Thanks for doing things like this! Whether I win or not, I love entering give aways!!
I use knitting and yarn for therapy. It’s colours, it’s feel when you use it and the pleasure when a project is completed is something so amazing. Every time I use yarn I feel my depression lift. It has really helped me with my PND and the confidence boost that I have from just being ABLE to knit is something incredible.
Entered! I love yarn! I love that I can take this little string of fiber and turn it into just about anything I want it to be.
I am in love with your yarn. Endless possibilities and an outlet for my creativity is what I love most about yarn.
All signed up. Would love this small bag and all of the beautiful yarn. I will be traveling across the country and could use the bag to hold my project on the plane. Thank you Chandi, for making such beautiful yarn!!

I love playing with yarn. I like to make one of a kind items with no pattern. I feel when I’m working with it, it will show me how it wants to be worked up. I enjoy the texture and unique colors different fibers bring.
Knitting is an entire mind body experience. I love choosing the yarn. Marveling at all the possibilities. Deciding on the project and envisioning the finished product. Then making it happen. My satisfaction with the finished sweater and presenting it as a gift made with so much love. Lastly, never having to say, ” There is nothing left to make.
I’ve entered. My mom got me my first crochet hook when I was 13 years old and gave me a whole bunch of yarn she had gotten on sale in order to help teach me patience and sitting still once in a while. Since then I haven’t been able to quit this good habit or attempt learning knitting. Most times I can see in my mind exactly what the yarn is telling me to make with it. Some of the colours I’ve seen you post are so vibrant they seem to just jump out of the page. I also love giving gifts I’ve made to family, friends & to special projects like the VA, Children’s Hospital & scrap yarn makes lovely beds to give to animal shelters.
To see a garment grow form skeins of yarn is a wonderful experience.
I love yarn. I love to crochet and to knit. I like to sew, needel point, and all kinds of crafts. I had to teach my self how to crochet and to knit, because I am left handed.

What I like about working with yarn is that I can take a ball of yarn and make something beautiful, decorative, or wearable out of it. It’s like a transformation, a birth. What starts out a ‘string’ ends up as something totally unique, never to be duplicated exactly.

Yarn is always there when you want it. It doesn’t judge or talk back. It follows your directions.
I’ve been a subscriber for awhile now (love your colors!).

Entered! I love the feel of yarn and my passion for color consumes me no matter what I am knitting.I look forward to the time of day when I can knit.I give much of my time (I am a veteran) to our young veterans and my college students (I teach part time), but knitting is MY time and there isn’t a day without it – even if it is a gift for someone, which is most of the time! I can’t imagine life without yarn!

I still have pieces that were made for me as a child and my children have used them.

I want to leave a heritage like that.
Done!!
Thanks for the opportunity to enter this giveaway!! Good luck to everyone.
And I love the feel of yarn, the softness of it.. And believe it or not, the smell… I have an addiction to smells lol..
I’ve entered your lovely contest and hope upon hope that I win! (I’ve so far never won anything, but I haven’t lost hope!)
My favorite thing about yarn is that it travels with you wherever you’re going so easily. I rarely leave home without at least some small project to fill my hands and time if I find myself waiting somewhere. I hate just sitting, and I’ve found that even doing the simplest bit of crochet, knitting, or needlework can be a real conversation starter. It was a lifesaver through several rounds of chemotherapy … I made LOTS of hats, scarves and lap warmers for fellow cancer patients. I was always amazed when people were touched when I’d hand them something right off the hook, and was even MORE touched when I’d see them weeks/months later, wearing/using that same item. It made me feel … I dunno … like I was giving back a little of the love and support that I got from that same group of people … nurses and fellow patients alike.
I love seeing how the colors come alive in a finished piece.
Entered!! I love yarn because of its versatility. So many different crafts you can use it with, including my favorites, knit and crochet.

Hi! I just entered! I am profoundly in love with yar because of all the endless possibilities for creativity. It allows me to show my love for crochet and also works as therapy.

Thus began my venture into the world of crochet! Yarn has allowed me create cute beanies of all sizes!

ThankYOU and good luck to ME!

I have never knitted with silk yarn and this would allow me to create a project that I have always wanted to do. I love knitting and keep two bags ready for on the go all the time. Even on my job when on break I am knitting. True no joke. I have braided yarn, tatte it, knit all the time adding different beads, crochet , sew it into clothes for this age and historical clothing, I live with yarn.
I can see a different project in each of these yarns — they really speak up for themselves!
I entered for August
What I live most about yarn is the way it sides thru my fingers, needles or hooks; them magic happens and it’s a sweater, blanket, hat or shawl
I LOVE yarn (wool over here!) because of the texture and colour of the raw material and then when I create something from it I am thrilled by what I have done the joy of wearing it and amazed that it was running around in a field not so long ago!!
I entered the contest. One of the things that I love about yarn are the endless possibilities of what to knit!
Such a great giveaway!! Yay!! Mi favourite thing about yarn is that is is soooo useful, you can do all sorts of things with it
What a pretty give-a-way!
I want to be creative but can’t draw or paint. So, I play with string (yarn) in a variety of beautiful colors and textures to create something else beautiful. I especially like making something and giving it to someone else. So satisfying. Yarn has also allowed me to meet all kinds of new people that I would never have had the pleasure of meeting!
I have loved knitting for a long time also crocheting,but when I finish a knitted piece it gives me pleasure that someone will use it,.It also de-stresses me

OMG it took 8 minutes to scroll down on my tablet! I don’t stand a chance. 🙂 But I entered anyway because I love yarn so much. There’s many things I love about yarn, one of them is how patient it is. It’s always there and waiting for me. It doesn’t rush me or judge me if I don’t finish right away. It’s like that best friend who is always there no matter what. 🙂
There are so many comments I could make about yarn but I think the drape and the feel are two reasons I like crocheting. I would certainly like to win your giveaway! Great idea, thanks.
I’m one happy hooker who loves yarn–the colors , the textures, the variety.

I am entered
The thing about yarn is when you are making up a design and it is not working you can take it out and restate it. and there are so may color combinations so you always have an original. Even if you go by a pattern the yarn colors change even in the smallest way do to dying.
I have entered. I love creating lovely items out of the yarn.

I’m entered! I guess my favorite thing about yarn is the endless possibilities for creativity. My family can attest to my preference for handmade gifts – I love to see their faces when they realize all the effort and time spent on something unique just for them.
Hi,
I love that using different yarn for the same project can produce a completely different outcome. The difference between the fibers, weights, textures and colors…the options are endless. Finger less mitts are some of my favorite to make and give! The reactions and the immediate trying on makes all the effort worth it!
Have an energizing day!
Yarn is happiness, it is a baby with a bunny ear hat, a toddler dragging their blankie behind them, extra color on the cute bag you have, cuddling under your favorite granny square on a cold day with a cup of steaming chocolate. Yarn is warmth and the happy feeling inside when you give your friends a just finished shawl or pair of slippers and their faces light up.
Yarn is pure joy and I love it!
Thank you for bringing more joy into the world by what you.
Entered! I love the different textures different fibers have and all the things one can make with them! I love crocheting hats for my little monster!

One of my favorite things about yarn (I have many favorites!) is the creative outlet it provides and how you are never sure how something will look and what it will become until you start working with the yarn. It is always a bit unexpected!
I want to enter the August give away! Yarn makes you feel warm and cozy all over!
I love colours, all colours, the brighter the better. And it’s not just yarn. If I see coloured pencils in a store, I have to have them because of the many colours, LOL!

I love how forgiving yarn is. You can start a project, change your mind, take it apart and start all over again. Or if you make a mistake it is usually easily taken out and fixed. Plus yarn is like a cozy hug. Thanks!

I’ve just entered (hope I win). Yarn is a necessity in my life, almost like breathing. It’s better than a “fix” – the colors and textures make me happy. I was recently hospitalized and I hadn’t knit for 6 weeks – I was experiencing withdrawal symptoms.
I love the colors and feel of your yarns. I keep them for my stuff projects only. I have made shawls, scarfs, vests, and cowls with them. The color and elegenance make a simple outfit great for a night on the town. Many have asked where I brought the pieces,. I tell them I made with some very special yarn threads.
I entered and subscribed. What I love most about yarn, is getting to create things with my daughter. We have just moved to another state. I was going out of my mind with boredom; so, I picked up a crochet needle and started crocheting after 30 years. I am now teaching my daughter to crochet and spending quality time together with both of us learning new things all of the time.
Entering your competition because I cannot resist beautiful yarn. My favourite knitting are socks and shawls with designer yarn.
I entered. My favorite thing about yarn is that it can be made into beautiful gifts for your friends and family. I love the look on someone’s face when I tell them I made a gift for them and they see that I have crocheted a blanket, a hat or lovely scarf. Yarn gives me the ability to make others happy, and I am thankful for that.
yarn gives me a release from the outside world and the endless wonders of the process of turning it into a much loved present for family and friends
Hello Chandi
I love yarn so much because I can make beautiful clothing and items with it. I can then share these items with my family and friends and charities around my community. I love to knit socks, sweaters for myself and my grandchildren, I also knit scarves, baby blankets, beehive throw/afghan mittens, lots of stuff. It would be an honour to use your wool/yarn for some of these items. Thanks so much for the opportunity.
Yours truly TerryLee Diemert

Entered….this yarn is just waiting for me to create something special for my little angel granddaughter, Mason! Yarn feeds my soul and creating something beautiful makes my heart sing!
I entered! What a wonderful feeling I get knitting with beautiful colors and textures. Such a great way to express feelings…….
I love the creativity of choosing the yarn and color. Each knitted item becomes a work of art for its individualistic qualities.
Entered your contest. Now for the hard part. I love the way yarn makes me feel, it’s like smelling baked bread and fresh chocolate chip cookies. It’s finding new ideas, new patterns, and new ways to use it. Now if i could just finish one project before finding new yarn and new projects to ooh and aah over.
I am subscribed. I LOVE yarn. I make some of my own from my own llama! But there is nothing compared to your sock yarn! I am addicted to it. My daughter thinks I’m weird. 🙂 I’m close to being able to wear nothing but hand made socks, but I got side tracked into making a sweater and some gifts. Then my daughter wanted her own socks! I just wish I had more time in the day for knitting.
What can I say? Yarn “unknots” my spirit and gives me peace. It is an “AHHH” moment or hour or day depending on how much time I have to knit or shop for yarn that day. 🙂
These yarns are so bright and colourful and would make some great socks or gloves to be proud of.
I love to soft feel of yarn and the magic of the myriad colors that can be developed. I especially like to make socks and sweaters for family – and to see them enjoy wearing them!
The last thing I finished was a pair of brown handpainted fingerless mitts for my daughter.
I entered. I have an Anxiety Disorder and knitting with all the colors of yarn calms me down.
Thank you
I used to Crochet a lot when I was younger but sort of got away from it when raising my daughter and being a working mom. I’m now retired and am trying to get into it again. I am disabled and don’t get around very well so I’m pretty much left to keeping myself busy at home. The main problem I’m having with the yarns is figuring out what the difference is of the weights. I bought the lovely Sea Jade and thought it would work for some of the things I was thinking of making, I was very sad to find out it was such a lite weight. It doesn’t look that lite on the computer. I’m really out of practice on crocheting and although I know a very little bit about knitting I would consider myself a beginner in both. I love crocheting though. Is there some sort of chart out there that can explain the different weights of the yarns with an accurate photo showing the actual sizes of it? The Sea Jade is beautiful however it is in actual life a bit more green than it appears to be on the web page. I wish it had been the beautiful blue shade that it looks like on the computer but I do know that the internet is not always correct.. I will get more yarn when I can afford it again, but I need to figure out the weights before I do.. Thank you for your beautiful work on coloring these yarns, I love the silk and alpaca and any yarn that is very soft. I can’t use real Sheep’s wool as it breaks my hands out.
I entered for August. What I love about yarn is all the wonderful textures and colors that can be made from the fibers of our wonderful animal friends.

I think my favorite thing about yarn is the world of possibilities that are opened up, each time you pick up a new ball.
It’s the comfort of the feel of the yarn that connects with my needles that continues to comfort me and is my own sort of therapy and daily happiness..
There is nothing like a. Busy difficult day to come home and pick up a project and all the stress of the day disappear.
The feel of the yarn going through my arthritic fingers eases the pain as I continue to be able to create..it’s as if the fibers help heal….

I love to feel of the fiber in my hands. Knitting and crocheting makes my mind relax and releases stress from the day. I love to take a hank of yarn and create something with it. It’s like making something out or a long piece of string.
Subscribed. Favorite thing about yarn is that a ball of fiber can provide me with hours of relaxation and is then turned into something beautiful and useful.
Love the oranges and reds!

I love seeing your creations.

I entered! My favorite part about yarn, is how calming it is to crochet. I just recently learned and it givese great self esteem and pride to finish making something and have everyone ooh and ahh 🙂
What do I love about yarn? Just the fact that you can take two sticks or a hook and strings of different sizes and turn it into something amazing. And, the process of doing this is so peaceful. Keeps me “in the moment”. Love the journey.
I have entered the August yarn giveaway. All of the different colors are so beautiful. All of the colors make me very happy, and I think that they allow me to be more creative and adventurous. I want to try new and exciting patterns that do justice to the wonderful yarns!
I love the colours, the wonderous things you can do with yarn and the portability of most projects!!!
I love to crochet…..it would be wonderful to win some yarn in the contest!
I knit for a lot of reasons – but one is to stay connected to my past, to my Grandmothers, and their mothers and back to ancestors in Ireland, Scotland, Norway & Sweden. They knit – making functionally beautiful garments for the people they loved.
I like to think that I do too.
I love being able to make gifts for my friends with yarn. I am not a creative person, so I like being able to take other people’s creativity and “edit” it into something unique for my friends.
Yarn is full of infinite possibilities. It can become so many pretty items and is a joy to use. Particularly when it’s in lovely colours like your yarn. The yarns in the picture just glow!
I love the creativity you can achieve with the yarn. I let it ‘talk’ to me.
I love your colors….I love Namaste bags….Knitting is very meditative for me.
Love the awesome colors and the things you can create.
The colors are magical! (And they make me drool!) I’ve never had anything from Namaste, either. Also, I’ve never made or purchased silk yarn. It’s not in my budget right now, so this would be an extra special treat. Thanks for the contest.
Yarn, oh sweet fiber! One of the finer things in my life. I love seeing a knit/crochet project take shape and know I am creating art. I share these art pieces with family and friends (and myself,of course) and always feel like I’ve created my own masterpieces. Thanks Chandi!
Forgot to say I entered!!!
I entered — I love everything, the smell, the feel and everything it could become. I love everything but the cost.
of course my email address is .com not .co
thanks

So Many projects so little yarn. All those different colors will make my little creatures possible.
Endless possibilities! Would really like to learn more about how to create my own too.
hello, i’ve entered.
my favourite thing about yarn is it makes me happy. it’s a little thing but i’ve never been happier since i gave up work to play with it all day every day!
yay for the woolly people 🙂
I love creating my own ideas & crocheting for my grandkids…oh & my 2 lil’ poms!!!
Oh forgot to tell you
….I entered!!!
I entered for August. My favorite thing about yarn? Getting more!
Yes I entered. One favorite thing about yarn —- That there is such a thing as yarn! I love everything about yarn… although I tend to shy away from anything stiff or scratchy. I prefer yummy soft yarns… which are dependent upon how they are spun and what fibers are in them.
I’m 67 and just retired again. Have lots of time, and never enough yarn. Your yarn is the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. Can’t afford it, but am envious of those who can. I knit and crochet and have since I was 5. Making lap blankets for nursing homes, and scarves for friends and family. Always give away what I make, never sell. Thats why I need inexpensive or free yarn.
I love being able to grab my knitting bag when I am headed to just about anywhere. People always comment about my projects and I have shared my skills with many of my students after school. Your yarns are absolutely beautiful!
I have entered the drawing I enjoy the color and texture of fiber. Spinning, weaving, knitting and crocheting. I enjoy seeing how “experts” combine texture and color.
I love the colors, the feel, the endless patterns that call me. I love to “invent” things that may or may not actually work… I don’t even mind frogging the things and starting over! I love the way yarn makes me feel, all relaxed and cosy. I like how yarn keeps me centered. What’s not to like about yarn?
I already entered. Love the feel and the colors of all the yarns. And knitting is my “stress-reliever”!
My favorite things about yarn…COLOR!!!!!! and of course texture! Like nothing else in the world! Such a calming, peaceful and grounding feeling when working with yarn. I sometimes imagine all of the women (and men) across time weaving fabric and yarn in order to clothe their families…I know, I know…I’m kind of a nerd.
I already subscribe
I love the colors and the ability of what can be created from it limited only by my imagination and what I can dream of. Beauty, versatility and creativity are my creative weapon of choice. The ability to be able to share what I make with those in need knows no boundaries.
I am entered! My favorite thing about yarn is all the wonderful possibilities for creativity!
I love yarn because its such a creative and versatile subject to work with. I love the freedom to create with structure and colors that are readily on hand or I can make my own.
I just love those colours – I can see a wonderful shawl being made for Christmas.
Oh, and I am entered.
I entered.. I think yarn is a wonderful thing. It makes me happy and keeps me warm.. 😉
I entered too!! 🙂
What to I like about yarn? Color, texture and the many things you can make…or you can just look at it…touch it…enjoy it. Yarn make me smile!
I already subscribe to your newsletter. I love the possibilities of yarn! It can be made into just about anything your heart desires!
I love the color the softness and the possibilities all wrapped into one neat little package. I am entered 🙂
Entered….. I love the feel of the yarn between my fingers and how the yarn can become a sweater or an afghan or something wonderful…. I love creating with the feel of the yarn…..
Thank you for the opportunity to enter your yarn give away. I have enjoyed crocheting, ever since my Irish Grandmother taught me how to do the granny square, when I was very young. I taught myself how to knit, while in high school and made my own sweaters… I worked in a yarn store, during HS and I was considered a bit of a geek, but I did not care. I made some really cool, original things that I could not otherwise afford from a top brand store. Then I was considered cool and talented…I really love creating “something, from nothing.” I can spend hours in a yarn store. I love to “wing it” and make my own creation. I love gifts that are handmade and I love to give something handmade, from love. Well off to create something new..Thanks again! ~Katie~
Entered…..What I love about yarn is the colors and the endless possibilities you have with all the colors and textures.
I love yarn especially when you find a yarn bundle with a broad spectrum of color working with it and watching it transform into something special. I also love when people ask me where did I purchase it and I smile as I say I made it gives me a warm feeling.
I love knitting. If I have to choose the one thing I love the most, it is making things that will last a lifetime. Things that will be passed down. Like blankets that will be handed down from one generation to another. I don’t quilt. However, I have quilts from my grandmothers from both sides. So, I’m making blankets that will be made to pass down from me to my grandkids, to their kids.
I love so many things about yarn. Watching the face of those who receive hand made baby blankets made just for them. Being able to personalize gifts so that it isn’t just cookie cutter gifts.

Hi, my name is Katy and I’m entering to win the gorgeous yarn & holster bag 🙂 what I love about yarn is it’s potential to be anything you want it to be!!! Mittens, a shawl, a pretty beret or just a gift on its own to another knitter <3
I entered the drawing. Yarn is better than chocolate – when I’m stressed, tired, or having a bad day, nothing cheers me up like new yarn and knitting.
My favorite thing about yarn is the finished project. I don’t have a passion for balls of yarn, but I love how the yarn looks once it becomes fabric.
I entered and I love yarn because it feeds my creativity and design flair. Congratulations on your engagement!
Yarn is just like any other medium.. i take a skein of yarn and ur imagination and u can create the most beautifull things:)
I have entered. I love all types of yarn and the beautiful bright colors!
Have subscribed. I love the variety of colors. While I’m making something it’s amazing to watch an afghan, a pair of mittens, a shawl, appear out of nowhere. It’s like magic. 🙂
I see such possiblities with these gorgeous colors….hmmm, cowl, scarf, mitts maybe?, or a muff or…..or…..
I entered for the August giveaway. I love yarn because it allows me to make it into anything. I love designing my own patterns and seeing the yarn develop my idea from a thought into a lovely “something else”.
such a happy thing , yarn is.
whoa, this would make some wonderful stuff i cant even imagine right now… a stains glass something for sure!!
Hi I Just Love How You can Make Something so beautiful Out Of Fibers That Someone put so much time into processing into soft yarns…What a gift…
Hi Chandi! I’m so excited about your August giveaway! I just couldn’t pass up the chance to win some of your beautiful yarn. What I love most about yarn is how each skein is full of hundreds of different possibilities. When you hold it in your hands, it looks like it’s just a hank of fiber, but in your mind you know you can change it into almost anything! Thank you for sharing your talent and your awesome positive attitude with all of us… 🙂
Yarn -fleece, fiber – has such a soft sensual feel to it.
I have entered. I love working with all types of yarn. I enjoy making anything from afghans, baby outfits to jewelery to curtains you name it if you can make it I want to have the yarn available to make it. I love all colors more the merrier !
I love the way it feels to create the fabric in my hands. It is exhilarating to discover the path to display a unique yarns’ personality.
I love the feel of the yarn as it slide through my fingers. There is something very relaxing about knitting for me – especially with a really good quality yarn. I think your yarn colors are stunning!
I entered! I love the feel of yarn. I’m definitely a petter when I pick something out for a new knitting project!

Angel hugs and Happy Stitches!!!
Sandi
Yarn is great . . . it doesn’t disappoint you, yell at you, make you feel sorry for it. It doesn’t get annoyed with you, or make you feel bad.
It just oozes love and begs for you to love it right back!
And I entered your contest.
I love my yarn because not only is it pretty to look at, but there is always something someone else can teach you to make it easier to use and get a better end result. We just have to be open to learn off another, which is all about what passing the knowledge of craft down to our next generation used to be about.
I love the way yarn feels as it slides through my fingers when I am knitting or crocheting. It makes me smile from the inside out.
I love the feel of quality yarn and the opportunity to create with it. I love the awesome array of color choices also. Yarn is a wonderful way to express one’s self in gifts of love or items to sell. Everything that I make is made with love.
In for the August giveaway!
My favorite thing about yarn is the creative potential that each strand represents! As it is held in your hands, it may be transformed by needles or hook from its original, linear shape into fantastic things! These may be simple in form, or amazingly complex; flat in dimension, as in blankets, or delightfully contoured, as in ruffly scarves or whimsical toy animals. A strand of yarn, it seems, can “go” anywhere that your hands, your needles or hook, and your loving attention desire to send it!–and that is the potential beckoning to us from each skein or strand of yarn.
I am entering the August draw to tell you that yarn gives me the same feeling I get when I see Daniel Craig (James Bond) come out of the ocean in his blue swimming trunks in the movie Casino Royale. Both heavenly.
Love knitting. My mother taught me long ago. Now I’m on a dog sweater kick. Doing a brown variegated with orange stripes for someone who hunts.
I look forward to your posts on FB, the colors of the beautiful yarns and the textures of the yarn are my favorite. I just love yarn, fairly new to knitting and crochet but can’t get enough of yarn, reading about yarn, looking at the pictures and patterns! Looking forward to a long relationship with yarn!
Lovely batch for August. <3
I love knitting, it’s so gratifying, especially with your yarns. The colors, I know I haven’t order anything yet, but it doesn’t mean I don’t like your yarn. You have the best colors because each has it own personality. Plus the colors comes from your heart in how you appreciate life & it’s surrounding…<3 pearl
I love to crochet gifts and give them away .I love diffrent colored yarns they make the item look like a bunch of flowers,
I love yarn. yarn enables me to create artistic items for those I love from doll clothes to hats and sweaters. it also allows me to create beautiful items for the homeless and the orphans. all of this while I sit in my rocking chair enjoying life with my cup of coffee close by. better than an anti depressant!
I love how yarn can be transformed into a beautiful, wearable item. It’s like magic!
I have entered the August give-away. My favourite thing about yarn is that it enables me to make beautiful things for the people I love 🙂
I love yarn because it is my way of being artistic and creating something useful and beautiful. I entered to get a chance to try this wonderful looking yarn
I entered!! 🙂 I am a handspinner and I think my favorite thing about yarn is that each one has a personality, even if it looks boring to some!! Your work is beautiful and inspires me to create and think outside the box!
I love colorful yarn. It’s always to pretty to see. I try to take my time and find an equally pretty project to use it for. I don’t think the world can have enlighten colors or enough yarn. I LOVE YARN!!!!!!
I also enters the contest in hopes to get some beautiful, colorful yarn. But I was so caught up expressing my love for yarn that I forgot to mention it. Oops. 🙂
I love knitting so that I can give useful, heartfelt presents!
I had problems registering. There was an error with MailChimp.
I love how soft and squishy yarn can be.
Hi Chandi,
I entered for August! My favorite thing about yarn is that there are endless possibilities of color schemes, and so many types of yarn to work with. Yarn can be a connection to another person, a gift to a loved one, or something for yourself.
Thank you,
Jessica
I love all the textures and possiblities with yarn, I have entered and hope it isn’t the second time I’ve entered (poor memory) 🙂 Thanks again Chandi!
I entered. I agree with so many others that enjoy the possibilities that yarn represents. I love to help yarn reach its potential.
These colors and the possibility of working with my “ultimate, favorite yarn” – anything mixed with silk, get my creative wheels spinning faster than I can knit! I enjoy reading your blog and Facebook posts because you inspire me to try yarn combinations and patterns I wouldn’t select on my own. Thanks so much for the inspiration to be a better, more satisfied knitter!
Why I entered, I have been lusting after your yarn for a while. What I love about yarn, the colors, textures, watching the textile created out of the knitting It amazes me how beautiful a piece turns out because of the work of the person that spun, dyed and knitted the piece.
Hi,
I am a struggling artist trying to support myself while simultaneously taking care of my grandpa. I can tell you, it’s a handful! I love yarn because I like to make projects that are wearable, as well as artistic. I love that with yarn I can take my time shaping the project into what I want, instead of having to rush to complete it before the clay or paint dries.
Thanks so much!
Bess Goden
I entered to win your beautiful yarn. I am now in a Nursing Home with Parkinson’s but still knit & crochet from 8 yrs. of age to 84 yrs. & your yarns are the most colourful ever & I cannot afford to buy yarn anymore to knit things and give them away.
I entered. I think overall I just love the feel of yarn in my fingers when I’m knitting and crocheting. And I contemplate the beauty of the fiber and how fascinating yarn is when completing a project. I know this all sounds corny, but when I take a break, I finger the skein and it just makes me smile. Congratulations to whomever wins!!!
I love yarn because it is a glorious addiction!!! Color! Texture! Creating! Dare I say it… Better than shoes???!!!
waiting for email to confirm my email – commenting, just in case – those are Bee-yu-ti-ful colours!!!!
I have developed a passion for yarn in the last few years and it continues to grow daily.
Good yarn is like a wonderful insurance, projects just waiting to be made and lovely warm gifts to share with friends and family.
Your yarn is so beautiful…I long to crochet with some.
Yarn reminds me of family. My aunt taught me when I was 10 and we where always doing blankets and ponchos for everyone.
I entered. Yarn reminds me of family.
Love to spread out MANY types and just look at it and feel the different textures. Then choose the one that strikes me at that moment and decide what to make!! I always have more than one project going!
Hello,, I love your August give away. Yarn to me is like comfort food, it makes me feel safe and good.
Cheers Ann
Hey, Chandi: I signed up for the giveaway. What I love about yarn? Hmmm. I’d have to say the colors. I haven’t seen a color I wouldn’t work with. Congratulations on your engagement.
I love EVERYTHING about yarn! The color, the texture, the way it slips through my fingers while I work it, the way it smells, the way the project starts taking shape…
I entered! I love the different textures that yarns come in and how soft it can be. I also love yarn when in comes in the twisty shape because I think the shape is fun!
I love the variety of colors and materials and the endless possibilities.
I love the excited from both me and my daughter as we pick out patterns together! And then the excitement of the finished pieces 🙂 She’s 4!
I have been a spinner for many moons but now knitting its so wonderful. Thanks to the libaray ladies for helping us learners 🙂
I love the fact that it is usually very soft and works up so many different ways!
The best thing about yarn is how soft it is, or all the colors, or how it feels as I’m knitting, or all the uses for it, or all the fun things I get to make with it, or how it keeps me from dying of boredom when I’m waiting for someone or something, etc, etc .
How many times can we enter? It doesn’t say and I would really like to win this assortment of yarns.. If I’m wrong and can only have one entry it should say so some place on the entry information..
So sorry if I’m wrong Love the yarns!!
Tommie
I am entering. Have joined a knitting circle at our church and am learning a lot of things! Love your yarns. . . . I’m drawn to the colors, especially the rainbow ones. Love the bright and bold pinks and blues. . . .
well, actually – I love them all.
I signed up for the giveaway. I love all the colors, weights and textures that yarns come in. So many things I can create from yarn that the possibilities are practically endless. It’s a beautiful addiction that won’t cause health problems for me or my family.
My favorite thing about yarn is that it makes me feel quiet, calm and full of possibilities. When you know there is something you can create with such a beautiful tool the possibilities are never ending. Well, until you need more yarn of course.
Gosh I hope I win!
Your biggest fan,
Lucia Jones
I love the feel and color of different yarns. I can never have enough yarn. What I really love about yarn is it’s potential.
Yarn is luscious, and comforting, and offers possibility and accomplishment, all in one kinaesthetic glory.
Yarn is luscious, and comforting, and offers possibility and accomplishment, all in one kinaesthetic glory.
Oops, forgot to tell you that I entered!
Please enter me in the giveaway, I had to look through the names for a while to be certain I wasn’t duplicating myself, I love your giveaways almost as much as I love yarn. I have been crocheting since I was a kid and have always loved textures and the array of colors and the variations of colors and textures continues to be my passion. Sitting down with some yarn and watching it grow into something wearable or useable and seeing the patterns of color and stitch come together, it is just magical. It is my tiny way to create.
I entered and hope to win those beautiful yarns!
I love yarn because it givew me the freedom to be creative and make colorful and useful things!
I entered!!
I love the feel of fiber whether spinning or knitting.
Simple, it makes me feel good!
I love to knit. Each yarn is like meeting a new friend. It is fun learning how it behaves. I find knitting relaxing. It has helped me through stressful times. It is like having a best friend around at all times.
My favorite thing about yarn is the 100’s of possibilities from one simple skein of yarn.
I love yarn! I love to Crochet and have been ever since my Grandmother taught me almost 50 years ago. I do knit but prefer crochet, I’m a bit faster at that!
Think I entered already but just in case, I’ll try again. I love yarn for all the textures, colors, and flexability it offers to the crocheter and knitter. It is a way for me to deal with the stress of my husbands cancer.
Hi, I have loved knitting for my family for many years now. Some of the new yarns and colours are so sumptuous I have great difficulty choosing which to use next. I have several projects that i would like to knit but not enough time to do them all. Will not stop me trying though. Love your project jumper you have just finished in a yellow colour. Have never knitted from the neck down before. Is it very difficult ?? I have been treated for breast cancer over the last twelve months and my knitting helps to keep my mind focused on good things . Congratulations on your engagement.xx
Hi Chandi, I’ve just entered the August contest. I just love the colors and the way yarn flows through my fingers as I’m knitting my project. It definitely puts me in a peaceful place.
I have loved yarn since I was a little girl and never get enough. I go into shops and just buy for the color and feel and know down the line I will find something to do with it. I like to be different and so having limited colors, weights, and types are always a plus for my yarn closet.
I just entered your August give-away. My favorite thing about yarn is COLOR! I am first drawn to the color of a yarn before anything else. Your yarns look beautiful. I look forward to using them.
I just subscribed! I love going to a yarn shop and just feeling all the different yarns. I crochet a little and knit a lot.
I entered and love all the different things you can make with it.
I am already a subscriber! 🙂 My favorite thing about yarn is everything – all of the colors – the textures – and that the opportunities to create are endless!
I love crocheting and knitting. It is a HUGE stress relief for me since I work as an advocate for victims of crime.
There are tons of things you can do with yarn besides knit and crochet like making bracelets and covering anything you can think of.
Hello, Its just great to see all your wools
Betty
I love yarn because I love to crochet and make beautiful things for my family. I am disabled so my crochet keeps me busy. I feel that you should always invest in really nice yarn if you are going to spend all that time making an item.
I entered in the August contest. I absolutely love knitting and crocheting and have since I was 8 years old. It relaxes me in the evening and people are always amazed at my creations.
I love the feel of soft silky yarn. I love knitting with had dyed yarn to see the variation of color as I go. I am very new to knitting. I am on my second project and I hope to get better.
My friend introduced me to your gorgeous site and yarns! Every time I’m introduced to a new skein, I must bring it to my nose and breathe deep! I LOVE the smell of yarn!!!!
The thing that is most special to me about yarn is that it brightens my day, no matter how harsh the day may have been. It soothes my soul and sets me free!
I LOVE E V E R Y T H I N G ABOUT YARN ….. THE ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES ….. SOOOOOO MANY COLORS……..OH SOOOO MANY SIZES OF HOOKS & NEEDLES…. CIRCULAR, STRAIGHT, DOUBLE POINTED, LARGE, SMALL, TINY…. AND THE WOOLS, COTTONS, LINEN, BAMBOO, OHHHHH NOOOOOO MORE ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES & COMBINATIONS TO CONNECT, AND SHARE WITH FAMILY, DONATE, AND GIVE TO FRIENDS GOING THRU CHEMO……… SHOULD I CONTINUE…. ??
IF I COULD ONLY RETIRE AND DO IT ALL…..
I love knitting- the best thing about yarn is that it represents possibility. You can make it into anything- only your skill and imagination limit you.
My favorite thing about yarn is all the colors. I love playing and putting colors together to make unusual scarves. Knitting away and see my project finished~
I entered! I love the assortment of color and fiber types 🙂
I have been crocheting since I was 10. My grandma taught me. I love how much potential it has and how forgiving it is if you mess up. It’s a very good stress reliever.
I love the way different types of yarn feels and the millions of different things that can be created using yarn. I have only used a couple types of natural fiber yarn (I usually use acrylic), but I’d love to create a baby blanket in some of the more luxurious natural fibers.
I entered! I may have already entered, I can’t remember. My favorite thing about yarn is its endless possibilities! I love finding new yarns and imagining what they will become!
entered. i love crocheting and looming baby hats and blankets to give away.
Entered. Yarn makes me feel all warm and fuzzy…..and reminds me of my youth raising sheep on our family farm…wish someone would have taught me how to spin wool then!!! It wasn’t the “in” thing to do then….polyester and “stretch & sew” were all the rave!
As a little girl watching my grandmom and an aunt crochet all was fasinated me that they could make the things they did with a hook and string so they taught me how to and totally fell in love with it then seeing a teacher knit that became my next conquest but wasn’t until about fifteen years ago I finally taught myself how to to quit smoking. Now yarn is my addiction and knitting is my passion. 🙂
I love the feel of it sliding through my fingers, one stitch at a time. One after another, it builds and slowly it creates the most beautiful things. Each color, each texture, making something that I made. I put my love and soul into each thing that I mostly make for others. So I am giving them a piece of my love. That is why I love yarn.
Entered. Knitting is heaven, a multicoloured form of meditation. Love it, love your yarns.
I love the feel of yarn and how good it makes my hands feel. It’s just soothing and relaxing plus rewarding! !!!
Entered. I love yarn because it’s magical to watch a piece evolve as you knit/crochet. It’s beautiful to feel a soft skein, but joy and excitement are the emotions as you watch a piece take shape – like watching a work of art. Yarn offers endless possibilities! And happiness!
Subscribed under two e-mails. Better odds, right? Now for part two – what do I love about yarn…. The colors are sweetness to the eyes. The textures are my natural tranquilizers. As the yarn passes through my fingers, I feel my heart slow, I feel my blood pressure reduce, and I feel my brain move into its creative zone and I am a happy camper. How about you?
I entered and I love the colors and the possibilities!!!
I love the feel of yarn and the wonderful things that this piece of yarn can become.
Love it
Been signed up for a while. I love your colors. What I love about yarn? Each skein is a new possibility.
My favorite thing about yarn is it always fits. Fat day skinny day doesn’t matter. It is always the right size 🙂
I love the feel of yarn and all the different colours. It’s like soul food.
I have entered to win the lucious yarn! Adore all fiber arts, but I am a knitter. I love the tactile connection with the medium and working fiber into functional creations.
I love the smell, colour and texture of it and I love the infinite potential of wool and/or yarn. The possibilities are endless. I love being able to create something from a piece of string and two stitches.
Yarn is one of my passions. The colors and the feel make me very happy.
I just entered your contest… and what I love about yarn is EVERYTHING!! I just started knitting about 6 months ago… and I’ve already knit 2.5 sweaters, 2 scarves… and I have a HUGE list of projects… safe to say I’m hooked 🙂
I entered! 🙂
I love yarn because of it’s verstility! Want something thick and warm use a thicker yarn or knit it in a tighter gauge. It all depends on what you want to do with it. Don’t get me started on all the lovely colors and fibers (or blends ) you can turn into yarn. XD
I entered! My favorite thing about yarn….. (Do I have to pick just one???) I love the delicious, colorful squishiness and love watching it (color change) as I hook away 🙂 Working on learning some knitting- wish me luck! 🙂 Your video on left-handed knitting has made it SO MUCH easier to understand (since I am a crocheter 😉
Thanks for the chance!!!
I love yarn and the thought that I am connected though it and my craft to thousands of years of women who helped care for their families by using yarn. Thank yoy
Yarn spills over into so many areas of life! Emotions soothed. Stress relieved. Dexterity developed. Character formed (like patience and self-control). Heritage passed on. Oh, this is sounding so serious…. What about — all my stash taking up an entire Master Bedroom closet (my clothes are in the linen closet in the hall). What about, the one tote of tangle that an entire cast of Annie delightfully blessed me with — after I taught 25 girls under age 13 to crochet. Yarn does so very much!
I just love how many different things you can make using different types of yarn and pf course all the pretty colors it comes in 🙂
I love to knit hats, scarves, and fingerless gloves for my family. I love the different textures and colors of yarn.
Love the colours anf love to make something with it
I entered. I love the feel, the texture of different types of yarn and all of the wonderful colorways available. It is exciting to see a project take shape.
I just entered your contest. The reason why i love yarn is because of its possibilities. The idea of being able to create a basic human need, clothing, to making beautiful things for a friendly and inviting home is very appealing. Around the world people use yarn for survival by trading their creations. Making a good living and enriching the lives of others, from something as simple as a piece of string, simply amazes me!
Hi Chandi,
I am entering your beautiful and generous yarn giveaway. The beautiful yarn you make just amazes me.. every time I see a new shade or a post with you dying it.. or hung so neatly.. I wonder .. How do you do that.. It really blows me away the colors you come up with and how your yarn never seems to tangle as you color and hang to dry. I have never used a yarn with silk or wool.. I just buy the cheapest I can from large outlets which is usually acrylic.. and dishcloth cotton. When I see all the beautiful yarns you have created I am mesmerized every time. I absolutely love the mixed colors you create with so much love added to each one. Did you know that the love you have for your home dyed yarn comes across in your posts.. in the words you use to tell about them? I love the sweaters and many other things you make. One day with a beautiful yarn I hope to make myself a beautiful sweater. The thing I love about yarn is the creativity, all the different things that can be made from a thread of yarn and a crochet hook or knitting needles or a loom. From a little ball with a bell in it for a kitty to play with to a cute little doll to a beautiful dress, to a bed spread with a picture on it. And the creativity of the many colors one can use in a single project. Thank you so much for giving us all a chance to win your home made yarn. That is a special gift and just speaks more about the person you are in heart. God Bless <3
I Entered for August giveaway…. I Love Yarn because of the endless Possibilities and of course the Beautiful colors and textures
There’s nothing more I love than the feel of yarn. I love to stick my fingers in the skeins and dream about how it’s going to feel when I wear it. I have to touch every type in the store and run my fingers through it. Ah…
I love the variety of colors yarn is available. The types of yarn is endless – linen bamboo, silk, and wool or any combination of such ingredients. Then comes the patterns which will make your visions soar.!
I love yarn for its simplicity. One strand can become anything!
Yes, I entered and my favorite thing about yarn is just about everything… I just got home from a trip to visit my parents and my two young dogs had destroyed pretty much any project and/or ball of yarn they could get to. It was the first real time they had been left all day because I am usually here. I was gone for 2 weeks and came home to complete rats nests shoved into the closet to keep them from ruining them further… GRRRR!!! Needless to say, I could use some new yarn… lol.
I subscribed. I love having a new yarn and starting a new project. Sometimes I have a couple of projects going at the same time. I love the variety of colors of all the different yarns that are available now.
I could really use this yarn giveaway I spend money out of my own pocket for yarn so I can make preemie hats and blankets for my local children’s hospital nicu. My yarn is running out and I am hoping to win this giveaway it will be going to a good cause.
What I love about yarn is the way it feels between my fingers. The cool needles and the soft fibers twisting through my hands. The sensation is soothing. As a single mother of three and full-time student at a stressful university, knitting and crochet are the closest I get totherapy.
Entered. I love the many different colors, textures of yarn. As well as providing my fingers with something to do while visiting or watching a favorite movie.
I love the diverse colours of yarn, so much yarn so little time like lollies with no calories! I particularly love shawls and cardigans…..your yarn is to die for I love the way you put an inspirational picture with each new colourway
I Iove creating colorful apparel for my family including my husband, my chihuahua, 5 children, 9 grandchildren & 2 great grandsons, a great granddaugter due in November & another great grandchild due in February (sex unknown at this time)!i The nice thing is they love & appreciate everything I make them. I did subscribe to win the yarn giveaway.
Crocheting is my passion. I learned when I was 8 years old. I am in love with yarn. My stash makes me so happy but you can never have enough…..
I’m entering this one!!!
I love to knit and crochet. The best thing about yarn: colours, textures, composition (fibre types). Is it smooshy or is it a bit scratchy or crunchy, is it smooth (like the way silk feels). When its worked into a fabric does it drape or is it a bit stiff. Let me count the ways!!!
Well of course I’ve entered….who wouldn’t want to win some beautiful yarn.
Since I have hyperthyroidism and still waiting to see the specialist, knitting is my God send because it relaxes me. I love to knit for my grand children, and making sock, sweaters, blankets, etc…. Always keeping busy and loving it.
I adore your yarn. Can’t wait to get my hands on some more.
I love the way yarn makes you feel. You can wear it around you neck and snuggle into it or wear it as a top and bask in the glow of comments you receive. It’s my favourite thing!
I look at yarn as my paint pallet ! Everything I knit is its own unique painting.
PS. I entered !!
yarn-nature’s rainbow spun into skeins of possibilities.
I’ve entered the monthly contest.
Yarn helps me keep my sanity, it’s the thing that lets me mold it without complaint.
Yarn is soothing and what I do with it more soothing. I love to knit!
I entered! Yarn is self-expression waiting to happen. I can work with it to show my creativity and my personality. I love all the colors and textures waiting for me to give them shape.

I entered the August give-away. I love the feel, colours and endless possibilities of yarn!
I think I might already have entered, but I am not sure, so here I go again, maybe. Besides the obvious quality of allowing beautiful garments to be made, I love yarn because it is so soft and I just want to fondle it.
I entered .I love chilling out and knitting,crocheting,I love everything about it
I entered the contest! My fav thing about yarn is that I can make things for my loved ones and now I’m teaching my daughter. In this crazy world, it’s so nice to spend that quiet time together!
I love yarn because I love to knit and crochet, and I LOVE bright colours and textures.
Yarn is so seductive, you touch it and it grabs you by the heart, and you just have to make something from it.
Beautiful Chandi… I’ve entered – why do I love yarn? endless textures and possibilities to create beautiful products, whatever they may be.
Hi Chandi,
I love knitting, have been knitting for 32 years now. I love the fact that by knitting and pearling, you can make so many designs. I love the variety of yarns and colours and I love your colours that you post.
(By the way, that wedding dress you posted on your blog is beautiful!
P.S. I entered your August give a way. Love the colours of the yearn!
Yarn is my best friend ( next to my husband of 43 yrs lol). I am a knitter, crocheter and do massive amounts of embroidery. I use all types of yarn and of course love the silks the most. I am entering your contest because a girl can never have enough yarn around them. On a rough day I just pick up a handful of skeins and pet them…instant comfort!
I love yarn because as I knit it just flows and
becomes art and it is beautiful! =)
I am a constant knitter. Yarn keeps me calm and relaxed. Knitting at times comes for cleaning and cooking. My husband is very understanding and says I am just “wrapped too tight” and says that yarn and knitting instantly changes my mood!
I love the texture of yarn (feeling of it in my fingers) and the way different colors interact with each other.
Entered 🙂 I love yarn because it allows me to crochet beautiful and fun creations whenever I want. The more colors the better!
I love color and soft textures
Entered!
Entered!
I have a yarn addiction….I love it because every time I see a new color, I dream of what could be made with it.
I love all types of yarn and I love making throws,scarfs to give as gifts .
It melts my heart to know my gifts are made with love
I love that yarn is my outlet for creative expression. I once had a conversation with a guy about what I do and he picked up a strand of my yarn and said, “How can you look at this and see that it can become that?” (pointing to a scarf I had just made.) Working with yarn is a beautiful thing!
Knitting makes me happy, relieves stress and allows me to be creative! I love the way the yarn feels, and I love creating things as gifts for family and friends!
What’s NOT to love about yarn???? The color, the feel of different fibers, the way it is so dynamic. Give two people the same yarn and what the end up with is light years apart. It’s a wonderful medium for individual expression!
woud love love love to win some me some yarn
I love watching yarn transform. 😀 We start with a piece of string and can turn in to something stunning.
I entered:)
For me yarn is about art and self expression. I love that.
I am a weaver and love putting different colors & textures together!
I entered your give a way! I am 72 years old and taught myself to crochet over 50 years ago. there has been a lot of new yarns. I like yours the best, I think it is remarkable what you do. You create amazing colors. I want to learn how to knit next.

Barbara
Yarn is comfort. Yarn is fulfilling. Yarn is dreams.
I love to make things that wrap my family in love.
p.s. I entered! lol
entered…….I love that it never asks me for anything but yet does everything I want—even after a long day at work!!
I definitly made sure I got my entry in for this one. I love yarn because it is always there to greet me after a stressful day.
Yarn, has this magical ability to transport me far far away from my “real” life.. every color every texture allows my mind to just take off and imagine the many many things I want to create with it.. sometimes just letting my softest silkiest yarns slip across my fingers calms my too busy mind and gives me a sense of peace.. Maybe to some that sounds just ridiculous that “yarn” could have that affect but for me, it’s the most magical thing I’ve ever experienced 🙂
Yarn is my passion. I love how it looks, how it feels, and how the rhythm of my needles sounds. Yarn is food for the soul — maybe it’s “soul candy”? I’ve loved yarn as long as I can remember.
Knitting and crocheting have been my mind saving and God given craft to share with all I love. Holding luscious yarn in my hands as I create beautiful items make me feel complete.
I have entered!
I am married to an artist and yarn is my paint. I use it to make beautiful items just as he does on a canvas!
OOOPPPPSS, I forgot to say I entered 🙂
I entered! Like most of the rest, I love the colors of yarn but I also love to squeeze and cuddle it. Almost as much as cuddling my grandkids. But not quite.
All entered. I love yarn for it’s color and feel. I also love having something to show for my efforts with it. I am an instant gratification kind of gal 🙂
Entered!
My favorite thing about yarn is the thrill I get from the colors and textures and the inspiration. Also the happiness it brings to the people I make things for out of the yarn 🙂
Love entering these contests, just hope I win someday!
Your yarns feel amazing – can’t decide whether to knit with them, or just keep them around because they look and feel so good! And I’ve noticed it takes a lot longer to scroll down to leave a comment! 🙂
I just entered your August yarn giveaway!!
I love to crochet!! It is my sanity and keeps me focused in my crazy life. I’ve never bought any yarn other than what is at the local craft chain stores so I’m very excited to work with some of the creations I see on your site!! If I don’t win the giveaway, I’ll just have to get some for myself!! 🙂
Entered! And I love yarn because it’s soft, smooshy, pretty and it doesn’t talk back to me and slam the door to its room much like my darling child does.
I love the bright colors and the different types of yarn both shiny and matte.
I enjoy the relaxing feeling for knitting and crocheting and creating an individual piece.

I posted a few weeks ago, but I just randomly clicked back to this post, as I have far too much free time (and you have so many fans of your work… scrolling to the bottom of the comments was a process!) I did forget to say that I entered on my initial post, so I thought I’d say it (kind of) quickly, in case it was a significant oversight.
I’ve entered! My favorite thing about yarn is the textures!!
I entered. Thanks so much for the great giveaway! I love to crochet and I have to admit that I just love fondling yarn! 🙂
My fave things to do with yarn is just imagining all the possibilities I can do with it.. Its magical and I love it!!!
Love the feel of wool and colors and the creating of something. It links me to my mom who taught me to knit and crochet and has now passed on.
Entered! Love yarn because it’s my therapy – momma to 6 adopted, special needs children and the are (or have been) homeschooled.
I love your eye for color. Things just seem to blend with each other. Eye candy. Dying yarn is an art and I think you have got it down to a science. Keep up the lovely work. And…I hope I win! 🙂
I entered for the August giveaway & subscribed.. I love the look & feel of yarns against my fingers & hands as I work ( play)… I am always fascinated by the stitch patterns & different colours as I work on my projects… My love of yarn is such that I have a huge stash! … 🙂 🙂
I entered the giveaway!
My favourite thing about yarn is that it’s so soft and comforting as a ball or a hank but can be transformed into something even better and only sky (and yardage!) is the limit.
the only thing i can say to question what i like a yarn, wait for it EVERYTHING! YAY YARN!
I entered the contest. I am a yarn addict, like so many. I love the feel and variety of yarn available. I am currently loving bamboo and cotton yarns. Hand dyed yarns or small batch yarns are some of my favorites for the color ways that are produced.
I have entered, but never win anything, would love to make wonderful hats & mitts for my grandchildren for Christmas . .or maybe a sweater? So much yarn – so any options
Susan
I entered. I love the versatility of yarn.
My favorite thing about yarn is the endless possibilities it has! With the exact same yarn you can make an afghan, a hat, a scarf, a bag, a mug cozy, an amigurumi… ANYTHING! You are only limited by your imagination 🙂 And the gorgeous colors and textures are definitely a bonus!!
Mom taught me to knit when I was @ 10, I have loved yarn since, Mom was a knitter that could watch tv and knit, and turn out beautiful Irish knit afghans, cable hats, argyle sweaters….and made them in a flash……I love knitting, it is my go to…always…I recently had a box of my 4 kitties fur..spun into yarn…It is beautiful…but haven’t decided what to make out of it…I love looking at the beautiful colors of yarn you make…your sweaters are great.. I prefer natural yarn over acrylic, but use both…thank you for a chance to enter.

I entered because what I love about yarn is its versatility.
I entered, and my favorite thing about yarn is the finished product made with my own hands.
would love to try weaving with your silk yarns.
I love the way yarn feels, and all the different colors. I never have enough time to make all the projects I want, in fact whenever I buy a new yarn I get so excited to work with it, my old projects sit unfinished in my basket – so sad. I’m a great starter of projects, but have trouble completing my projects.
Entered and my favorite thing about yarn is color, texture, fibers, oh look, shiny 🙂
Hi.. Just subcribed to your site and I love Yarn for its COLOR and Texture and softness. Just been learning how to weave using table loom, floor loom, cardboard loom, and many more… Just got a cricket loom and hope to make many beautiful scarves using glorious colored yarn.
I work a lot with thread, so yarn is a welcome change and projects go a lot faster with yarn. Yarn makes such soft and comfy articles to wear or to wrap up in. Yarn projects are wash, dry and use where as thread projects usually require starching and ironing.
I entered for August but don’t know if I entered in the right place. I love putting together color combinations. I sometimes get bored making something in one solid color. But when I can get the right combination, I love it! I also love soft yarns like baby yarns. I make baby blankets for unwed mothers and hats for people with cancer. Crocheting gives me something to do while my husband watches TV. That way I can still be with him. <3
I entered and I love yarn because I love all the lovely things I can make with it. 🙂
I’ve already subbed to the newsletter soooooo
YARN! I love everything about it, the squish, the color, the smell of wool, the smell of the vinegar when I dye, the fluffies, the final result of dying, spinning, knitting or crocheting something…EVERYTHING!
I have entered and I love yarn because it has helped me recover from my brain injury I had 7 years ago.
I entered! My favorite thing about yarn is that it is so diverse and pretty! It is a work of art even without being made into something!
I’ve entered for the yarn. I love all things about the yarn, but my favourite aspect is that I can create something new.
I love making baby blankets for the next generation. Scarves, hats, mitts for gifts. Something made from love is the best present I could give!
Entering for August (second attempt – mobile broadband – Grrrrrrrrr LOL!) I love yarn because it lets me knit knit knittitty knit to my hearts content! Xxx

This is my next sock challenge! I’m thinking Blood Orange or Butterscotch and Chestnut? None of which appears to be included in this month’s giveaway… so, hmmm — guess I would have to order those to be sent as well! ;-D
I like knitting with these wonderful colours. Wish I could visit you one day. I am from Germany, Bavaria.
I entered your giveaway and can’t wait to feel that yarn in my hands.
I entered!!! Love to just relax and crochet whenever and wherever.
I’ve entered! I love the feel of the smooth soft yarn in my hands while I crochet. I love the beautiful colour and the mood it put me in while I wear it. I love that it refreshes me when I feel so tired of life and that its always in my bag ready to say hello what we doing….
Just entered and love yarn because I can hold it in one hand and enter giveaways in the other!
I am a subscriber……I just love the feel and texture of the yarn as it moves over my fingers to make something beautiful out of what is basically a string….
I’m a subscriber, Love the colors, Wonderful to work the yarn
I’ve entered, love the colors of your yarn!
I love everything ab ya how it looks and how it feels, the fun of creating something and especially seeing someone else enjoy a homemade gift (like my daughter!).
I love yarn because it is fun to hug it and squish it and call it George. I will feed it and love it and snuggle it.. ( oh wait, I am getting carried away.)
I love yarn cause it is made of AWESOME.
I love yarn because it lives – it moves, it breathes, it wraps me in warmth, it comforts me via my prayer shawl when I have worries, it heals friends who wrap themselves in prayer shawls I make for them – it is beautiful and I love to work with it!
Hi! I’ve entered! I love yarn because, well, like Albus Dumbledore, I do love knitting patterns.
Thank you for the yarn giveaway or the chance to win rather. I love yarn because I can take a piece of string and make something beautiful and useful with it. Really, my favorite reason for loving yarn & fiber is that I can make a gift and hopefully pass on my love and a hope & prayer that that string will give someone else a feeling apeace and strength. Again thank you for a chance to win.
I love to knit and crochet. Also, I’m a very tactile person and love the feel of yarn.
And … I also entered the contest…lol…forgot to mention that in previous comment!
Entered! I love show Yarn makes me happy. When I look at it, it is like a promise of many hours of sweet work and at the end, something creating something with my hands. Alan end product that I can give yo loved ones or cherish by myself.
I teach 8th grade Language Arts. Teachers are under the gun to always do something extra….more meetings, better lesson plans, connect with kids…. A couple of years ago, I did a unit on homelessness and taught one class of kids to knit washcloths. It amazed the boys that they actually did better than the girls. We knit 23 washcloths in 3 weeks to donate to a shelter. When the kids had yarn in their hands, there was no “drama”, no defiance; just helping. I knit when I get home and always have a project in the car. Yarn is soothingly soft and can produce a calming sense of accomplishment and comfort.
I’m not sure if we can enter again, but, I’ll try it! I subscribed, which I already was even before the last time I entered. And, my favorite thing about yarn is all the gorgeous colors!!! Thanks for a chance to win!!!
I love all kinds of fibers and I knit, crochet, embroider and anything one can do with thread/yarn!
I have so entered! The smell of wool and texture has to be my number one favorite. The colors combinations make endless possibilities to most projects. The feel of the yarn passing through my fingers while making a project is so calming and comforting. My grandma taught me to crochet very young and I am new to knitting. Love some of your links and notes they have been very helpful! Thanks 🙂
Congratulations on your engagement many happy years to you both!
I love the beautiful shades and would love to make a wrap with them!
So feminine! Hope I win!
I love the potential that yarn has. There is no set pattern that MUST be followed…a skein of yarn is just yarn until someone uses it creatively. One knitter might make a sweater while someone else might choose to make gloves, a blanket, or even stuffed animals. The only limitations are in the skills and imaginations of the individual.
I’m designing Hugo’s summer collection. A bare bear is so yesterday lol
I am returning to knitting and crocheting after about 30 years and am finding a whole new world of possibilities. I love that yarn, in its nascent state, can become anything you want to make of it.
For me, yarn is therapy! I taught myself to crochet this year, after my granny passed away. I have been using her needles, hooks and leftover yarn, and have fallen in love with crochet!
