Spinning -day 13-
Deep in the colorful, fuzzy abyss known as "My Stash" was a stuffed ziploc of Rosie-fluff that threw itself into view.
So -
I'm back to spinning #GreatPyrenees and switching off with the #babydollsouthdown wool.

Day 11 #ImbolcSpin
Now that the GP is done, moving on to #babydollsouthdown that spent years bullied by a ziploc bag. This springishly green fiber clings to itself - making a textured single.

#ImbolcSpin taking a break on day 7 with some #wool pulled from deep within the stash. Completely different type of #spinning required with #babydollsouthdown rather than a slick #merinosilkblend but will do both on #dropspindle

Three Babydoll Southdown sheep stand in the snow eating hay out of a cardboard Chewy shipping box.

I don't know who needs to know this (probably nobody actually seeing this) but Chewy boxes make great hay feeders. I tape a feed bag to the bottom and it lasts for months.
