A small world

A little while back I sold two pieces of roving to a convent in the US. I felt quite honoured but didn't think too much of it. 

This month I managed to snatch up a Phat Fiber Fluff box which arrived earlier this week with oh so many lovely goodies...



Among those little treat were a very nice sample called Tyrian Purple - click on the picture below to read about it. 



So soft and with a bit of sparkle I just couldn't keep my hands of it. Today I finally got some kind of sunlight to take a photo for the blog and facebook (and so I could handle it more freely)



I looked Inglenook Fibers on Etsy almost immediately and since then I just could keep from looking and looking at the full size batts... 



I thought I should wait until I had tried spinning the sample at least - it's not like I have a desperate shortage of fibres...But today I fell for it and ordered this one and another called Briar's Rose.



When I was about to pay the payment was made out to The Holy Nativity Convent!!! Turns out the Convent I sold rovings to I today bought hand blended batts from...


How about that for a small world - even if it is across the pond.
