Congrats to all of the winners in our contests!

October's Fiber Dyer ~ Final Clue

Did you figure out that October's dyer comes from Wisconsin? Since Northwoods Dyeworks has already shipped from the North in May, do you know which Fiber Barista hails from Southern Wisconsin? Last Clue!

October's Fiber Dyer ~ Clue #2

Even with eleven dyers in the pool, October is the only month in the Fiber Barista fiber club in which you can receive a second shipment from the same state. Do you know who it is now?

October's Fiber Dyer ~ Clue #1

Are you ready for autumn? In this dyer's hometown they are getting ready for Halloween, enjoying a month back at school, and watching the leaves begin to change color!

Fibre Club September

As those of you who follow my blog will know, photography (and blogging for that matter!), are not my strongest suit/s. Nonetheless, I am trying, so here is a teaser for the September Fiber Barista flora & fauna club.....

Apologies if it's a bit dark, it wasn't easy to photograph....

September's Fiber Club Dyer

This month's dyer is, of course, the lovely Debbie T from DT Craft & Design!

September's Fiber Dyer ~ Final Clue

Have you guessed it yet? And now for the final and easiest clue.... Once again you will find an international package sitting on your stoop! This month's dyer also hails from the UK, but this time from England. Who can guess it fastest?

September's Fiber Dyer ~ Clue #2

Although well loved for her gorgeous hand-dyes and fabulous color-matching skills, this month's dyer also caters to the budding hobbyist as well. She is one of the two Fiber Baristas that can also be found "behind the podium" teaching classes on dyeing or "behind the counter" selling blank yarns and supplies to the newer dyer.

September's Fiber Dyer ~ Clue #1

Last month we spoke about each of us having their own moment's of fame. September's Dyer has had a few! Our dyer ran with the baton in the Commonwealth Games, but more along the lines of her profession, she may be better known as a published author.

Fiber Club - August's Teaser!

The August shipment of the fiber club is in the mail!!!!

Here's a teaser for you:

Fiber Club ~ August's Dyer

Mia & Anne nailed it again! It is indeed Brooke of The Painted Tiger I believe she offers combined shipping, feel free to contact her and browse her site to take advantage of it!

August's Fiber Dyer ~ Final Clue

Ok, August's final clue is here! For those of you who are also in the 2009 Fiber Baristas Sock Club: Postcards From Home, this will be a no-brainer. I'm not sure how into baseball this month's dyer really is, but she's certainly spent some time gazing upon the Field of Dreams movie set located near her hometown.

If you aren't in the sock club Google "field of dreams movie set" and you'll have your final clue!

August's Fiber Dyer ~ Clue #2

You may have already guessed, but we're back on the North American "side of the pond" with this month's dyer. We have a dyer living in almost every region of the US, so to be more specific, we're in the Midwest. (No where near NYC and the Macy's Parade....) Can you guess her now?

August's Fiber Dyer ~ Clue #1

Alright, we're officially halfway through the fiber club at this point, are you ready for more? Don't forget to post pics of anything you've spun in the Ravelry group.

I think if you heard all of the stories you'd be a little surprised at how many of the Fiber Baristas have enjoyed their "9 minutes of fame." This month's dyer has actually marched in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and her elbow made it onto national television to boot!

Fiber Club - June's Spoiler

My inspiration for this month's fiber colourway was flora and I decided to pick an orchid flower to inspire the colourway which is a lovely blending of pinks and reds. The colourway is Cymbridium and named after the orchid pictured in the card that accompanied everyone's orders. The fiber is a blending of superwash merino and SeaCell and is a fabulous spin! Enjoy everyone!

Fiber Club ~ July's Dyer

I gave you guys an extra day, but it doesn't look like anyone needed it! Indeed, July's dyer is Natalie of The Yarn Yard, located in Scotland. Congratulations to Anne, Mia, and tennismom! Be sure to email Natalie you real name so she can be sure to include your prize. I'll ask her to come over here and post with the preferred way of contacting her, along with any info about adding extras to your shipment.

Temptation!

It's not easy being a wicked temptress. You just have to work so long and hard at it, and you have to confound the poor folks who think you're giving them good pics of upcoming yarn. Good thing I've devious, however, because I'm not giving anything away.

So for your delight and anticipation, here is a pic of some of the July yarn shipment. Betcha can't guess what the colorway is. Mwahahahaha!


Cackles as she creeps away. He he he.

July's Fiber Dyer ~ Final Clue

Ok, and now for the final, easy clue! We're spread out so far, that it's easy to forget that 72% of the Fiber Baristas are located somewhere within the US (it's a big country!) July's dyer has the responsibility or having to represent her country, Scotland, all on her own. Can you guess the dyer now? Last chance!

July's Fiber Dyer ~ Clue #2

Hailing from four countries, the Fiber Baristas can be quite the international bunch. If you love getting packages with little green duty slips on them, you're in luck!

You may not have noticed our international flair when checking out since our cart is based in the US, but when you purchase from July's dyer on her site you are likely to notice a     £     symbol in front of all her prices!

Do you know who it is now?

July's Fiber Dyer ~ Clue #1

Do you have animals? Several of our Fiber Baristas don't. But this month's dyer does. She does not live on a farm, yet chickens can still be found prowling her back garden. Do you know who it is?
