The Wealden Woollyholic

At last I have received some of my wool back from the mill.  I spent all morning dyeing these DK skeins.  I used food colouring which is a good use for the stuff.  My daughter, who is now 7 years old, helped me name the different skeins and some examples of the names are Sunset Dance to Lollypop World.  Great!  Of course I must mention a big thank you to my friends behind the scene who do all the work who made this wool from grass!

THANK YOU

We are in the full swing of lambing and so far we have had a lots of healthy lambs including some lovely triplets.  I shall be taking some pictures in the next few days and posting them for you to see.

Some of the fleeces from last years lambs are at a specialist mill and are yarn from these will be ready, by next week, for sale.   This yarn will be 50% Lleyns lambswool and 50% alpaca.  Beautifully soft and white in DK and Bulky.  I can't wait to see it and will be posting photographs as soon as it is available for you. 

I am busy with spinning fleeces from someone else.  I am working hard to complete all seven fleeces.  These are white, grey and brown.  The yarns I am spinning for them are all bulky will either be all grey, grey and white, brown and brown and white.  This is the sort of projects I really enjoy.
