Those of you who have seen the video may  want some  of these:

Our plan was to bring some tropical flavors to the party, so we have fresh blueberries, papayas, cherries, kumquats, watermelons, lychee, and plantains.

A few are available for sale in our Etsy store.  If we run through and you would like more, we will redye.  We can do those colorways on different fibers.  We currently have BFL top, BFL superwash top, MCN top, seacell blend top, and sock yarns.  Please keep in mind that different fibers take color differently and that this is a 2nd take, so they may not be identical.   Please feel free to email us.

I think it can handle such abuse

and now for a color update!! We’ve been dying to get ready for the September Phat Fiber box, so I can’t show everything (and it’s killing me) but here’s a quick pic of what will be out soon.

I’m so excited because I found this silly website that makes mosaics for me. So here are this weeks new colors!
We also opened an etsy site for those of you who like to make wish lists.

New color update– this set was inspired by the Venture Brothers.
