A giveaway ~ rainbow wool!


Knitting with rainbow wool is really rather delicious. Watching the colours emerge and become. And I particularly love Indigo Inspirations' hand painted rainbow wool. It is lovely and soft to work with and the colours are divine.


I've used many Indigo Inspirations' craft materials and am always tempted to get more! It's also great to support small business ~ and Indigo Inspirations is a small business ~ with Jo Hodges as owner, operator and entire staff!


Jo is based in beautiful Mullumbimby in Northern New South Wales, Australia. She is happily living in an old farm house and spends most of her time painting wool and felt on her veranda {sounds rather blissful to me!}

You can be tempted by Jo's craft materials on Etsy or connect via Indigo Inspirations online, Facebook and Instagram.


And now I'm excited to give you a chance to try this gorgeous wool for yourself!

**************
For your chance to win 100gms of 16 ply....
...tell me what you would be inspired to create with the rainbow wool!

I will choose my favourite answer and announce the winner in this post on 25 September.
Remember to leave a way for me to get in touch! 

And the winner is Binny C who said 'My eldest boy who's 6 and very keen on octopus knitting would love to use such colourful wool! I showed him your blog post and his face beamed at the beautiful wool. I've been thinking of trying wool from Indigo inspirations for a while so this would be great to win'

**************

Good luck,
Kelly
