One of the best fibre art tips I've ever received (from the ever inspirational Tye, of course,) and one which often comes to mind is to keep a little mental note of new season's colours appearing in fashionista shop windows...it's fun. I loved these colour combinations....and was inspired to create....Sheepychic "Wallaby Rose"and Sheepychic "Kingfisher". Both Merino rovings are still available for sale. They weigh just over 100gms. Yours for $12 Aus/or spun as you like for $22.Aus. The postage within Australia would be about $4.Those of you who are regular visitors to Sheepychic will know I often go towards some Gothic colours, too...for my witchie hats. I'm going to sprinkle this over with silver sparkle...It's called "Dark Opal". I think the older girls will love a hat or scarf in this yarn. I'll leave it available for sale for a couple of weeks, so if you'ld like it...you better snap it up. Again, it costs $22 Aus.(Dark opal no longer available...similar rovings available shortly)Of course I needed a colour fix after all that...hehe....check out "Schmooze"(pictured: Sheepychic "Schmooze" rovings. 100gms. Still available...$12 or spun to order for $22)(Shmooze is no longer available...similar rovings posted soon...If you're keen to purchase one of these rovings please leave a comment indicating which one is on hold for you and email me at Sheepychic@hotmail.comI am so keen to establish my tiny sheepychic shop but as soon as I sit to do it I have about 3 bottoms plonk themselves on my lap wanting to play Bananas in Pajamas....oh the joys. (I figure I better play it while I can...they're all growing so quick!!) Thanks for your emails....and thanks for logging into SheepychicBloggings. All the very best, Ruth....xoxoxo

WOW Ruth! Your rovings are awesome - I LOVE them all! Talk soon xoxo
Gorgeous colours (and great names!) I know what you mean about trying to *work* with little bottoms on your lap. Even a 13 year old one. Takes 1724 times as long...in a nice way. Cheers, Wen

They all look fabulous. I love the kingfisher colours if you spin them up make sure you post a picture to show me what it looks like.
