This is the latest club shipment. It's 2 oz of Wensleydale fiber and 1 oz of tussah silk. I'm thinking about spinning the Wensleydale into a thick-ish single, spinning the silk into thread, and then crazy-plying them together.

2oz of a 50/50 merino and cashmere blend. The colorway is called The Pyrenees. It's begging to be spun up soft and lofty and knitted up into something that you could wrap around your neck and purr like a kitten.

Merino/Silk/Yak blend. The colorway is called "The Best Bite". It's dyed with Indigo. Heavenly soft.

"Sweet Tart". 3oz of Targee Roving. I love the fact that she searches out less common breeds of sheep.
I'm busy knitting away a small lace shoulderette with this selection:

It's "Rainer Cherries" merino/silk.
I split the roving and lined up the colors for minimal candy-cane effect.

Spinning it was a joy. It's knitting up so soft and lofty. Swoon.
