Remiss

My latest installment of the Funky Carolina Fiber Club came in the mail today, and I realized that I've been terrible about posting at all photos of my loot. Everything is four ounces except the Merino/Bamboo, which is six.

Zen String
L-R: Sea Salt 60/40 Merino/Bamboo; Fiore BFL; Mystic Superwash Merino from the Zen String Fiber Club

Angelina also has a sock yarn club and an experimental yarn club; subscriptions are quarterly. I've just renewed my fiber club membership for another three months.

Funky Carolina
T-B: Delilah BFL; Sunkissed Superwash Merino; April Showers Merino from the Funky Carolina Fiber Club

Carrie is still putting cute little cards in with every shipment, and they come packaged in bright tissue paper - what's not to love? I've just renewed this one for another three months as well.

Spunky Eclectic
L-R: Dandy Lion Superwash Merino; Strawberry Fields Corriedale; Nightshade Coopworth Sliver from the Spunky Eclectic Fiber Club

Amy's club is a monthly subscription through p*yp*l, and I have to say, it's nice not to worry about it lapsing. I think she and I have very different color sense; I never would have put some of her combinations together, but I haven't been disappointed by any of them.

I think I join clubs because no one would ever let me into theirs when I was a kid - it's a way of proving to myself that I'm no longer a loser, or at least, that I'm a loser with lots of company.

And, yes, I realize I've now proven that I haven't actually spun any of my club fluff, but that's because I have the never-ending sock yarn on the wheel still. I'm really excited to finish that and get to some of these lovelies.
