Description:

I've seen and participated in a quite a few yarn swaps - but how about some love for the spinners out there?

In this swap we will be swapping roving or batts to use for spinning up some of our own handspun yarn (or for felting projects!)

To receive a 5 rating your package will contain about $12 worth of spinable fiber. It could be a larger amount of natural undyed roving, or a smaller amount of hand-dyed roving, or one of those gorgeous carded batts with lots of lovely fibers.

If your LYS doesn't carry rovings, please check out www.etsy.com for some amazing rovings that would make beautiful handspun yarn.

Extras are not neccessary, but its always great to aim for hearts! Some ideas are: extra fibers to blend in as you spin, thread to ply with, etc.

I want everyone to get a great package so you must have a rating of 4.85 or higher to participate and no no-sends. If you're new to swap-bot you must have a complete profile and send me a quick message.
