Mountain Girl Yarns {giveaway!}

Today’s giveaway is from Camilla of Mountain Girl Yarns.  Her hand-dyed yarns are incredibly gorgeous, and I am so excited that she is here today to share about herself and her shop!  You can find Camilla at her inspiring blog, and on Instagram, Pinterest, and Facebook.

My name is Camilla.  I am a small indie dyer and a mother of 4.  We live in the mountains of Montana. The beautiful nature that surrounds me: ice blue lake, mountains, rushing creeks, wheat fields, forests and farms – the Big Sky all inspires… I put all that love into my yarns.
As a nature lover I like to be outside, ride my horses, hike and ski. I find what keeps me the warmest is wool, on cold days. Some skeins have nylon, which helps wick moisture away, excellent for hiking and skiing. It also makes washing a cinch, washing machine friendly. Mountain Girl yarns are non itchy, next to skin soft – perfect for little ones that might be sensitive to that.  Always warm and cozy made with quality hand dyed wool blends…whimsical and original…anything but ordinary.
