Crafty Friday 6/24 - Phat Fiber Box has Arrived!

Do you remember that Phat Fiber box I told you about last week? They went on sale last weekend and started showing up on doorsteps Wednesday. I was pacing in front of the door waiting for the mailman. This box is so much fun!

Mine showed up in the early afternoon and I couldn't wait to get it open. There were so many great goodies in it.


There are yarn samples, fiber samples, stitch markers and other fun stuff. Everything demanded attention and petting right out of the box. I had some favorites right away and as I looked for the full size versions online I realized that some were already sold-out. Didn't I tell you this box was full of popular stuff? :)

The small yarn sample in the front of the picture (black and green) was called "Green Goblin". It was the first thing to come out of the box and get played with. In just a short amount of time last night I made this ~

Isn't it cute??

I also had to spin one of the roving samples too (the one attached to the green alien) and made this yarn. I got 35 yards out of the little .5 oz sample. I might have to make another little sock out of it.
