Yarn! and Goodbye to the Goats
Posted by SharonMy yarn has arrived back from the mill! My California Red fleeces have been turned into 2 ply worsted weight yarn, and I have been having a great time knitting it in different ways to see how it behaves. I’ll be selling yarn, and some braided rugs I’ve made from roving, and perhaps some of the things I knit over the summer too, at a few events this fall. So exciting! Some examples:

In other news, I am getting out of the goat business for good. I have found a buyer for our last two does and I’ll be delivering them to their new owner on Friday. So that leaves us with a bunch of California Red sheep and our darling Argyle the llama. I think this will make farm management tasks quite a bit easier for me. Sad to see them go, but I think it’s a necessary step for the long-term health of the farm.
