Super excited. I recently found a wonderful fibre source, Nunoco, and got my hands on some last week. Not only are their fibres amazing, but they are UK based (in Wales) and therefore shipping is reasonable and is super quick. I have been keen to get one of their small sample boxes for a while and finally scored one. Called a Secret Smorgling, you get 160 grammes of fibres, the details of which are a surprise to you but it will contain two 25 gram mini batts, two mini themed sample packs and six individual samples of various stock fibres to try out. Perfect for a beginning spinner and honestly, the softest and most beautifully prepared fibre I've come across yet. 
It shipped the same day, and arrived the next, beautifully packaged in purple plastic wrap, with purple tissue around the fibre, and beautifully presented in its box. Its an experience just opening it, and came with a lovely note from Candy and Lora who run Nunoco. I am sure I'll be on that site regularly. I already have a list of stock batts that I really want to get. Luckily for me, I got samples of two of the fibres I have on my list, White Rabbit which is reputed to be softer than clouds, and Muddy Waters, a brown and teal mix. And here are the fibres all laid out. So pretty aren't they? I am very much looking forward to spinning these, but have another project in the queue ahead of these fibres.
