I would love to win one of these prizes! I haven't had the pleasure of using Fiber Co. yarns yet, so this would be just perfect.
I knit my Veyla mitts from Canopy Fingering in Kaffir Plum- sumptous yarn! I think my fave colorway is Malachite.
I have never used these yarns but they look positively edible! Thanks for the drawing! :) Leslie
The colors are stunning, what a great prize!
I've never used The Fibre Company yarns. They look lovely. It's too bad the wonderful prizes could be broken up into smaller giveaways so more people would have the chance to win and try out their yarn. Thanks for another great show and contest.
I have some Road to China Light in Dark Amethyst but I haven't used it - it is currently classified as too precious to knit. This year my goal is to use some of my "precious" & this is on the list.
There is no way I can pick a favorite color, they are all gorgeous. If you forced my hand, Terra Beet.
How beautiful, I have never used this before, it's like drugs for a crackhead - you can never have enough yarn
I love the Fibre Company Terra. I tracked it down after seeing a beautiful ad for it in IK a few years ago and have been hoarding it ever since. My favorite color is Beet. (craftr on ravelry)
what a great giveaway! i have used the fibre company terra yarn to make some chevron mittens. i absolutely loved the yarn and the way my mittens turned out!

Another great podcast! Sadly, I have not had the opportunity to use Fiber Co. yarns in my projects as fiber options in my corner of Ohio are fairly limited. I've already fallen in love with quite a few of the colors that are available. Keeping my fingers crossed!
I have not (yet!) used this yarn, but I've been drooling over that book for awhile now! What a wonderful give-away :-)
I have never used this yarn company but the colors are beautiful.
The yarn is yummy. What a great giveaway - love the podcast - hope you keep it up!
Love your podcast! Love the yarns! Thanks for continuing with your great patterns and giveaways!
I haven't worked with this yarn YET--I'm a longtime admirer of Terra and Road to China Light and am on the hunt for the perfect pattern for each of those yarns.
Wow, amazing! I'm a new knitter, so I have not gotten around to using this yarn, but I would sure love to!

Wow, what a fabulous giveaway! No, I haven't used Fiber Co. yarns before, but I sure would love to try them!
The yarn is new to me but looks amazingly soft. Can a yarn look soft? Yes, I think so. Pretty colors, too!

I've never used this yarn before, but looking at the colorways, I can't imagine why not! I especially love the blue green color. ALso, the patterns in this book look great! I love the vintage look with updated flair.
So glad to be introduced to this beautiful yarn line!

I never had the chance to use the yarn as I am based in Singapore but here's crossing my fingers!
I have not had the change to use their yarn yet, but I would love the chance. Lately I have been leaning toward burnt oranges and deep purples.

Wow! what a great set of prizes. The book and yarn look so beautiful. thanks :)

I would very much like to try the Organik yarn, because it's organic :-) I like the colors Magma and the new Oahu. My plan is to knit the coming pattern of Gudrun Johnston's Kerrera cardigan FOR KIDS. Because I live in Europe (with no stockists for Fiber Co. yarns) yet), I haven't tried or even seen any of these yarns.
I haven't used Fiber Co. yarns, but they sure look gorgeous!!
I have never used this yarn before...but it looks amazing. What fun colors and patterns.
heidijoehopkins@comcast.net
Very pretty...I've never used this before!
I have just recently found out about Fiber Co yarns, and I am just KICKING myself for not knowing about Road to China earlier. It would have been PERFECT for a project I worked on all last year.
What great colors.
I love all the colours! I haven't used this yarn before but it looks amazing :)
I've never used this yarn but I'd love to try it -- the colors are wonderful!
I've used Road to China, but really want to try Terra. That Cochineal color is so beautiful!
I have never used them but they look yummy.
Wow! What a giveaway! I've never used this yarn, but I'd love to.

I have never used these yarns, but they look absolutely lovely! What a wonderful giveaway this month. And the book looks quite appealing, too.
I've used their yarn and loved it! I used Road to China Light in the Lapis color way and it was one of the nicest (understatement) yarns I have ever used. Can't wait to get this book and so more of their yarns!
Terrific designs and yarn both! I have petted and drooled over the Fiber Co. Road to China in Grey Pearl, Tourmaline and Smoky Quartz, and Canopy in Rosehip and River Dolphin, but never had the opportunity to try them.
I have not used this yarn yet!

This book looks great and I love all of the colorways shown. I have never used Fibre Co. yarn but it is on my list of new yarns to try this year.
Thanks for the give-away.
I haven't used any of their yarns as of yet, but have been dying to try them. I need to find a place around me that stocks their yarn!
I haven't used this yarn before, but it is beautiful!
Thanks to your blog I know about this lovely yarn and will have to try it out seeing as how they are from my home town!
I haven't used this yarn before, but I will be crossing my fingers to win the book and yarn.
I LOVE the Fiber Company yarns and patterns and can't wait to buy their book. I was introduced to their yarn when I took a workshop through my LYS-Fiber Space in Alexandria, VA. I've used their fingering Canopy and worsted weight Canopy. Lovely colors!
Thank you for turning me on to these luscious yarns, I can't wait to try them. I love the autumn jasper colorway, its a really different mellow sort of burn orange.

I've never knit with these yarns, but they sure look luscious!! My favorite colors are River Dolphin and Coqui.
I have never gotten to knit with Fiber Co. yarns before, but oh, how I want to!
I have never used this yarn before, but I would love to. I love all jewel colored tones and winter colors.
What a beautiful set of prizes. I'm looking forward to taking a closer look at the book. I've knitted a couple of Courtney's patterns in the past and they were beautiful!
Haven't used the yarn or heard of it...part of the reason I love your podcast is learning about new yarns! Love the Canopy Fingerling Laguna.
What an amazing giveaway, and great podcast too! Thanks Alana.
Tanya (KitsyBabcock on ravelry)
you always have such pretty prizes!! i have never used the fibre company yarns before, but i would love the chance:)
Thank you for the contest. I have not used Fiber Company Yarns, but I would love to make those beautiful Twisted-Stitch Mittens! All of the yarns looks absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks again for another podcast and another giveaway!
I've never used Fiber Co. Yarns, but I'd have to say I've seen socks knit in Road To China, in Peridot, and they were gorgrous! I love the color :)
Wow, both the book and yarn look delectable. Thanks for the opportunity.
aknitontheside (rav)
I've been coveting yarn from The Fiber Company ever since you first used Road to China Light in one of your projects. Needless to say, I haven't used any of it yet but wow it all sounds so yummy!
I've also been enjoying following this book around the blog- and podosphere and every time I see it I want it more. The patterns are all so beautiful.

I've never used this, but the all the colors of Savannah look beautiful as I have an attraction for cotton...The Terra colors are also amazing. I sure do hope to win this giveaway....

I have used the Canopy Fingering to make Selbu Modern, which turned out lovely. I don't have a favorite colorway yet. But I always drawn to pale pinks and light shades of green and blue.
I haven't tried it yet, but I certainly would like to!
erin dot grenier at gmail dot com
Would love to give this yarn a try and the patterns too!
Last year for my birthday I treated myself to Terra for a scarf. I still haven't gotten to wear it but I'd been lusting over it for years.
This would be a new yarn for me to try, I'd be delighted to win! The colors are very pretty. Thank you for offering this to us.
The yarn looks so beautiful, but I have never used it before. I don´t even know if it`s available for purchase here in Norway.
I've never used this yarn, but would love to try it! Please pick me!
I knit with Knightsbridge back in the day to make a small triangular shawl, and I treasure my one skein of Canopy Fingering in River Dolphin. It's appropriately named - some much depth and shimmer.
Wow! This is an amazing giveaway. I really enjoyed the interview you presented here. I have never used this yarn but I am totally interested is making some of the projects from Kelbourne website.
I've only just started investing in good quality yarns so, no I haven't used them before, but Organik in the Coral Reef colourway is just what I have been looking for for a particular project in my queue. Please pick me to win the drawing online random number generator!!!!
i've been eyeing this yarn for ages... i hope i hope i hope!

I am yearning to try the Fibre Company beautiful, lovely, yarns.
I've never used their yarn before, but I'm dying to make the Leitmotif Cardigan which features Terra. I love your blog! Thank you for the beautiful posts and the fun giveaway!
I've never knit with their yarn before but have my eye on the Leitmotif Cardigan made out of Terra. I love your blog! Many thanks for your terrific posts and this amazing giveaway!
ohhhh, it looks lovely and squishy! I have never used this yarn, but it looks divinely girly!
I have never used this yarn - it looks beautiful! I really want to make those mittens and the hat, too!
I have never used this yarn before. Beautiful!! Looking forward to using it though.

Congrats on your 50th podcast. Thanks. Sue L.
If I had the money, I would use Fibre Co. yarns in half my projects. Terra is an amazing yarn though my favorite green colorway was discontinued from what I can tell. I have a couple skeins if knightsbridge stashed away that have been too precious to knit up. I wish they'd find a way to bring it back. Although I prefer jewel tones, whenever I see these yarns in person I'm surprised at how willing I am to use any shade in their palette.
I have not used these yarns yet, but they are now on my wish list! Thank you for the give away and the entertaining blog.

Wow these yarns are gorgeous! Would love to try them... must knit down stash! :) LeaAline@gmail.com
I really appreciate your podcast and great give-aways.
I have never used these yarns before but would love to win the prize and try them! The colors are so crisp---just beautiful! Thanks for entering me into the drawing!
I made a pair of handwarmers for a friend from a skein of Canopy Worsted. I don't remember the name of the colorway, but it was an exquisite blue. I loved working with this yarn and have been trying to find an excuse to get some more! Fingers crossed for the giveaway...
Thanks for featuring these yarns and Kate & Courtney's book!
I have used Canopy fingering in "yerba mate". It is so soft!!
I've used khroma dk once before (old school fibre company) in the most amazing shade of green! I knit a cowl out of it. It's pretty much perfect yarn.
I've never used this before but the colors are stunning! What a wonderful prize!
I would love to try these gorgeous yarns!
What a wonderful giveaway. I haven't had a chance to try Fibre Co yarns yet, but I drool over them frequently. The colors look just fabulous!
I have not used this yarn--yet! It sounds awesome and I can't wait to try it! I love the book and have put it on my wish list. If I don't manage to win it I will just have to purchase it. My favorite colors are blues and teals followed closely by fuscia.

I too have not yet used Fiber Company Yarns but know how to rectify this situation- regardless of the random number generator! Good luck at Stitches West and will value the podcasts even more with the schedule that begins in June.
Yours is the only site at which I comment Alana, so I am not very experienced. The Fiber Yarn Company is new to me but regardless of the random number generator I know how to remedy that situation!
I haven't used this yarn yet, but I'm dying to try it! Thank you for the opportunity - I love your blog!
I haven't knit with these yet, but they look so beautiful.
That book looks amazing, I've been drooling over it online the last few days. That yarn looks gorgeous. I have a skein of Terra that I purchased on vacation and am currently looking for something special to knit out of it. It's in a pretty sea blue-green.
I love all the colors. I can't pick. Though I tend to prefer greens, reds, blues and oranges.:)
emmysmythe(at)gmail(dot)com
I actually haven't seen the Fiber Company yarns in person. I think one of the local shops is going to start carrying them so I look forward to checking them out. Thanks for hosting the giveaway.
What a giveaway! The book and the yarn are beautiful, just like your blog.
Wow, what gorgeous yarn and amazing prizes! I haven't had the opportunity to use this yarn, but I am thinking a trip to my LYS will be necessary this weekend. Not sure I will be able to pick just one colorway!
I can be contacted at talbot(dot)erin(at)gmail(dot)com
I've not used TFC yarns before, but would love a chance to! =)
I have never knit with Fibre Co. Yarns, but I sure love the look of Terra in Chestnut and Redwood!
Loved the show. Love hearing about new yarns. I've never used the yarns, but will definitely be checking them out. Thanks!
Nope, but the yarns look lovely.
Wow1 This is an amazing giveaway! I haven't bought yarn from The Fibre Company before, but after looking at their site, the Road to China yarn in the Autumn Jasper colorway really makes me want to change that!

The yarn looks simply scrumptious!
I have never used this brand of yarn before, but the colors are amazing and I would love the chance to give them a try. Great contest. Have fun at Stitches West!
I have never used Fiber Co because I don't think we have it here in Canada (or at least the yarn stores I frequent). These prizes are lovely and a knitter's dream!
I love the Fibre Company! Especially Road to China. The Hematite colorway is my favorite. Awesome giveaway!
LOVE all the new patterns. I've listened to all of the podcasts, but I powerloaded them all in July. I'm sorry to hear that you'll switch to a monthly format, but I guess its not so bad when it means that you'll also be coming out with new patterns. I've never knit with Fiber company yarns...but i'm obviously not opposed to it :]

The posibility of winning both a beautiful book AND stunning yarn... how can one keep from joining ;)
Unfortunately I have never used this yarn! I hope I win or else I will have to get me some because it looks simply amazing!
loststitch[at]gmail[dot]com
Am I too late? I love their yarns. I used some for a sweater but I can't remember the name of it! It was really soft and their colors are so rich
I have admired them afar. I DID check once again on their website for UK retailers but sadly, no. I'd love to win some to try!
This will be a great chance to knit with yarn from The Fiber Co. Thank you for the generous giveaway!
I have never used Fiber Co. yarns. Thanks for bringing them to my attention--they're beautiful!
I haven't knit with them yet either, but am loving Road to China in Lapis, as well as Terra in Wild Clary. All the colours are pretty much amazing though!
Such juicy colors! Have never used this yarn, but would love to have the opportunity to try! Thanks for having the give-away. Your prizes are always amazing!
No, I've never used any of these yarns, but I would love to give them a try! There are so many beautiful colors to choose from. Thanks for featuring this one!
Wow, what a prize! I have not used this yarn before.
I've never knit it but I man need some. hmmm....

I haven't used Fiber Co. yet but I have them on my wish list!
Great interview - they seem like really fun people! I haven't used any of the Fiber Co's yarns but I do have one little lonely skein of Terra in my stash (I am sure it would love having company :). I bought it over 5 years ago when my husband and I were taking a "babymoon" in Portland, ME and walked all the way out to The Fiber Co's warehouse. I thought it was a yarn store and was surprised to walk in and see a group of people having a meeting. They kindly sold me some yarn anyway but it has become one of those "special" skeins that you never find the right project for. It's got to be my oldest stash. It is beautiful though so I hope to find a use for it someday!

I loved your podcast interview with Kelbourne Woolens and would love to win this amazing prize!
I have never used these yarns before but love the colors! Would love to win and try them out!
You always seem to find yarn companies I haven't used but definitely would love to.
I love the Chiclet Tree in the fingering and the Sumac in the worsted. But the 3 you chose would be ones I'd choose too - my 3 favourite colours!!

I would love to be the winner of the book and some of the Fibre Company yarns! They are just beautiful. I work in a yarn store in PA and we currently have your trunk show in the store. It's fabulous! I love all the patterns and seeing them knit up really shows what care and thought you put into your design work. Thank you!
Hope this gets in. I seem to be having a little trouble with the comments.
The yarn is lovely and the book sounds great. What a prize!
What an amazing podcast I will miss it twice a month, but i am so glad to hear your business is taking off.
