Dragon Hair - Dragon Wings!!!

Joy cometh in the mail! A week or so ago I spotted an ad from Lady Guenhwyvar putting her wondrous Dragon Hair and Dragon Wings on sale for a measly $2/oz. I hurried and managed to obtain these gorgeous fibers - Monster seems a poor name for the colorway. Those are the Dragon Wings on the left, and the Dragon Hair on the right.



And below is a photo of the Wings spun up. I cannot decide if I want to ply Wings with Wings or to spin up some of the Dragon Hair and ply that with Wings. I'm sure I'll manage to ply a bit of everything with a bit of everything else, then decide. I've got a whole pound of each, so I'm well set. :)


I also got a pound of Garnet Queen. I'm afraid it looked a bit different on my monitor when I was choosing. I wanted a bright true red and this is quite dark and subdued. I'm happy to offer it for sale for the same $32 (plus shipping) that I paid for it. This photo looks true to the color to me. There is an email link on the top right corner of the blog, so drop me a line if you are interested.

The dragon wings and dragon hair are so pretty! I'm sure they'll look wonderful spun up!

Gorgeous fibers! I adore that Garnet Queen too, but I need to think about whether or not I can squeeze it into my budget. Who knew that an innocent foray into blogland might lead to a pound of gorgeous fiber lust? You are a naughty temptress!

Did you get an offer for Garnet Queen? If not, I'm interested. :)

OMG, that is a gorgeous colour; my birthstone is garnet. But I do not spin and I am trying REALLY hard to not get sucked in ;)

Sorry ladies to leave you hanging on the fate of the Garnet Queen. I did sell this fiber quite some time ago - so long ago, in fact, that I cant even remember to whom it sold. But all is not lost - I'm out of work again and will be listing lotsa goodies on ravelry. Drop on by - my rav id is "sandeleh"
