Hello!

For those who don’t know me:
I am Nat, owner of Fiberdog Fibers and I create and sell yarn and fibers created from the raw fleece. Meaning I buy fleeces from shepherds here in the U.S. and then wash, pick, card, dye and spin them for you to enjoy.

Today I have for you three different products that all come from the same Romeldale/CVM fleece: one undyed yarn in a just dreamy grey, a yarn in shades of blue and a mini wool batt in shades of red, blue and purple.

I am an official fiber provider for the Shave ‘Em to Safe ‘Em program, so both yarns can earn you a Romeldale/CVM sticker for your passport. The batts are too small to qualify, however, if you purchase more than 4 oz of them total, just add a comment in your cart and I can send you a sticker as well.

Both yarns have similar details:
– 100% wool (Romeldale/CVM)
– 230m (251 yards)
– 120g (4.2oz)
– Sport weight (18 WPI), category 2 (fine)

Lapis Lazuli (the blue yarn) can be yours for $37.50 per skein, Pure Holly (the undyed yarn) is $35 per skein.

The mini batt is $10 for a 30g (1 oz) batt. It features different shades of red, blue and purple and has been created with a textured yarn in mind, but naturally you can spin it any way you want.

Shipping in the U.S. is $4.50 and free for orders over $100. If you are outside the U.S., please send me a message, as I do not normally offer international shipping.

Due to the very handmade nature of these products, supplies are limited.

Finally a little tip:

Happy April!

I hope you have been able to start the month without falling victim to too many jokes and pranks. Personally I only fell for one — by my husband and our dear dog Hestia (yes, she helped him and I can’t even be mad because she was a good girl and did exactly as he had told her).

But back to fibery things!

Today I have both a new yarn and also some fibers for you. As always I started with the raw fleece and then washed, combed, spun and dyed everything myself.

Let’s start with the yarn Sunset Sky!
All the pretty colors in the evening sky are what inspired me to dye this colorway. Blue, orange, pink — this yarn has it all and in so many different tones and shades. It is a joyful burst of color for all those spring days that might be too rainy to truly enjoy time outdoors.

Here are the details of the yarn:
– 277m (303 yards)
– 120g (4.2oz)
– Weight: Sport (17 WPI), category 2 (fine)
– 100% wool (Corriedale)
– $37.50 per skein

Unlike the new yarn, the new fiber braid is carded (but both are made from the same fleece). It is the result of using a dye bath that didn’t exhaust completely and such a lovely salmon color! It is every so slightly textured, meaning it will give your yarn some extra character, without drifting off too far into the art yarn area (though you can of course still use it to make art yarn as well).

Here are the details of Salmon:
– 55g (1.9oz)
– 100% wool (Corriedale)
– $10 per braid

You can find both Sunset Sky and Salmon on my website.

And if you want to be among the first to get notified about new updates AND receive exclusive discounts (including free shipping), consider becoming a fiber pack member by subscribing to my (free) monthly newsletter here.

Enjoy your crafts!

Happy February!

In this month’s update at Fiberdog Fibers (coming to you on Friday, February 4th 2022 at 12 a.m. Eastern) I am very pleased to introduce two new yarn colorways: Red Stars and Orange Stars. They are both made from the same Corriedale fleece that I washed, combed, spun and dyed myself. One of the pictures shows the various steps the wool went through in my hands.

Here are the details of the yarn:

– 270 – 290m (295 – 317 yards)
– 105g (3.7oz)
– Weight: Sport (17 WPI), category 2 (light)
– 100% wool (Corriedale)
– $35 per skein

In addition to these two exciting new colorways, I’ve also restocked some fiber for spinning: Purple Clouds is back! It is made from the same fleece as the yarn above, but has been carded, not combed and blended with a bit of rayon (bamboo).

Enjoy your crafts!

Happy first Friday of the year!

I hope you had a lovely first week and already got to plan or even start a new crafting project!

Personally I am working on a wonderful Corriedale fleece that I wash, pick, comb/card, dye and spin for the shop (I sell hand-dyed and handspun yarns as well as hand-dyed fibers).

I started the new year in the spirit of “out with the old, in with the new!”

This means there is a clearance sale going on at Fiberdog Fibers. I have a special clearance section that will take you to all the products that are currently on sale. It is a LOT of them, so make sure to check it out!

For the new part, I’ve just added new fibers for spinning to the shop. They are called Purple Clouds and you can see them in the picture. They are a wool (Corriedale)/bamboo blend and so soft. I basically want to pet them every time I walk past them.

All my products are made with love by me for you, my fellow fiber crafty people.

Enjoy your crafts!
