Spin a Long

I've joined my first spin a long and I just received my package!  The Gorgeously Gothic Spin-A-Long is from Dawning Dreams of etsy.com.  Here's some pics.

I have one month to spin the yarn and submit pictures.  Should be a lot of fun.

Skirting Fleeces Finally

I finally had some time to start looking at the fleeces we sheared at the end of December.  I had to setup the skirting table in the basement since the weather is not even slightly warm.  Lighting is an issue, but I brought in several additional lights to help out.
There is something soothing about skirting fleeces.  You get to see the end result of a year's work and see how well you did.  I have to say this years fleeces are looking nothing less than stunning.  Unfortunately, it takes me about an hour a fleece so this will take weeks to complete.  Here are a couple of pics of the fleeces I got my hands on. Remember, it's basement lighting so the fleeces are more yellow than they appear in regular light.
