I am so excited but I also know I have a lot of work ahead of me. As most of you know I have been waiting not so patiently for a couple of things to happen here on the farm. First, we have a few animals left to birth... Nope that didn't happen today. But one thing I was waiting for did happen and that was ... IT CAME!! What came you ask ... THIS!!

And when I opened it this is what I saw ...

My first thoughts were OHHH YYYAAAHHHHH!

Natural Black Shetland Roving!!!

Cotswold roving!!

And this is a sneak peek at something new I will be making ...

And of coarse we have this ... Fingering weight 2 ply Mohair/wool yarn ...
Our Mill did a beautiful Job on all of it ... Don't you think?

Now I have to get to work and package everything and get things ready for the end of July ... Fiber Christmas in July Here I come!!

This time we did a fingering weight. Last time we had sport weight. I think I like the fingering weight better but we will see. Maybe I need some of both ... LOL

No sir. None of this shipment is for shareholders. Shareholders take part in The spring Shearing. The Fall shearing however is my inventory. This is the first time we have gotten anything for our inventory. Anything we had on hand up until now are shares we didn't sell because I wanted to have them for the booth. I have only sent things to the mill three times and I am working on my fourth time with 2013 spring shearing. I am very excited that this one is all inventory.
