I love it! It’s lovely! My first time commenting but it’s such fun to see all the crafty things that you do. I’m a little obsessed with all things handmade and crafty myself. 😀
That is absolutely amazing. I’ve been on a quest for the perfect rainbow yarn lately – I’ve tried dyeing my own, looked at so many brands, and yours is just beautiful. Thank you for the opportunity!
wow ! that would like knitting with a new box of crayons!
Handspun and handpainted–it’s gorgeous! (One can never have too much yarn, can one?)
I might just go tweet about this and drop hints a few places. Hope you don’t mind…
Those colours are so rich and absolutely beautiful!
You sure have been generous with the giveaways lately, much to my delight. 🙂 I hope hope hope to win one of these days! Thanks for the chance! 🙂
Winter rainbow…what a great name!

I owuld love to win your beautiful yarn! Your Sandys are so precious — both the real one and the knitted one. You have a gift for knitting the most sweetly expressive animals. They make me smile.
Funny, I’ve been seeing many winter rainbows around our frozen lands lately. Makes me smile to see your gorgeous skein of yarn, echoing our winter rainbows. But *your* rainbow makes me feel warm. Many thanks for yet another inspiring giveaway.

Tracy
What beautiful yarn! Gorgeous photos too! What a beautiful blog!

Back to try again! I’ve decided that I’m not brave enough to try to dye a rainbow yet. While nursing my sick kiddo I keep thinking that maybe a nice mossy green with specks of brown. We’ll see if I get the courage to give it a go. (:
Such a beautyful yarn. Just as beautyful as your blog is.
This year I am going to teach myself how to crochet, this would be wonderful to start a project with!
Beautiful rainbow yarn to go with your beautiful blog! Thanks so much for the fantastic giveaway!

Dear Linda, I work in a small Waldorf kindergarten in Rijeka, Croatia and such wool simply does not exist in our country so my children and I would be delighted if we could receive it!
Beautiful! I’d love to get my hands on that and knit it into something gorgeous 🙂
Another entry from me 🙂
I just have to keep coming back to see the colours, and imagine the texture.
Beautiful and vibrant colours!
We could use some rainbow here – snowy grey day. Thanks for the chance.

Back for a third entry! (:
My two-year-old Imp and I dyed/painted yarn last night. Why haven’t I done this with him before? Sure it was messy, but goodness what fun! It’s still soaking, but I’m fairly certain that his skein is going to be much prettier than mine. (:
Hi Linda,
Wow what beautiful yarn, I would love the chance to win. I am already imagining what I would love to knit !
Linda,
So sorry to hear of all the weather tragedy in South Africa. We are home today because of freezing rain after two feet of snow just last Wednesday.
I am happy that you have some beauty to inspire your spinning and knitting. I miss my flowers and garden. I think I am going to have to go buy some flowers when the roads clear.
Blessings,
Tracy
Hi, finally found out how to do this. Love the yarn. I’m a big rainbow yarn fan. Love your items. Love the wonderful way you create knitted creatures. Really wish I could win the yarn but no way. Too many people intering. Maybe buy some for myself latter. Many blessings to you. Ripsimeh.
I am in awe of how beautiful the yarn is. Such talent. =)
back a 2nd time to smile at the rainbow!

Back again for another chance. Sorry about the rains, but lovely colourful pics – makes me really look forward (plus homesick)to our upcoming SA visit.
