I’m so excited that the review for the Magpie will be releasing this Friday!!!!!! If you aren't already a tinyStudio Magazine Subscriber if you sign up between now and Thursday you'll be able to get both Issue 7 our current issue as well as Issue 8 on launch day. We have been working on this review since the launch of Magpie. Originally it was just going to be a two-person review between myself and @woolwench sharing our experience spinning within our own given ranges of spinning. We then heard that there was a possibility that @longdrawjames was going to be testing the Ultra flyer and we knew we had to get James in on the review as well. We are so thankful that he jumped at the opportunity and we have had loads of fun chatting about all things Magpie. As part of our review, we all spun up the same colorway(Unicorn Fluff by @spottedewefibers) to be able to show a photo with all our yarns together showing the range of possibilities from the extreme fine frog hair that James spun to the fun bulkies that Suzy creates. It was incredible seeing all our yarns together. We'll have more photos of these beautiful yarns in the review as well as in an upcoming blog post. Also don't forget the deadline for the Guess the Weight contest is at the end of this Friday.

While we eagerly await the release of Issue 8 of tinyStudio Creative Life Magazine, I wanted to announce we will now start our guess the weight of all the singles I crammed onto this Magpie Standard bobbin contest!!! I spent a whole 3 months packing on countless braids onto this bobbin in preparation for a joint review on this incredible wheel I wrote along with @woolwench and @longdrawjames that will be released in Issue 8. . We will allow one guess per person and the person closest to the correct amount will win a 1 Year Subscription to tinyStudio Creative Life Magazine as well as some other to be determined possibly fibery goodies. There will also be some runner up prizes as well. 😄 . To enter please submit an email with the subject "tinyStudio Contest - Magpie" to info@fiberygoodness.com and let us know your best guess for the total weight of yarn in either ounces or grams. Keep in mind that Dave estimated the Standard bobbin capacity to be about 18-20 oz. The only hint I'll give is that I passed that! The deadline for entry will be at the end of the day Issue 8 launches August 28th, 11:59 PM PST. Good luck everyone and I cannot wait to see the guesses! . .
