yarn

Here is some of the yarn that I have spun recently. I have started shearing my sheep now so won't have much time to spin (lambs start coming in 2 weeks and kids in 1 week.)

This is some Cormo, spun from Cormo combed top. I didn't really like spinning it very much. I think it is harder to spin than Merino top. I does have a good hand and is VERY soft.
Shetland lamb and natural colored cotton
Black Teeswater, white Wenslydale and grey Romney. I am thinking of making a shawl from this. Both this longwool and the Shetland/cotton were very fun to spin.
Another sunset-we've been having beautiful sunsets almost every night!
