I don't want this thread to derail, but lambs have fiber, right? 😂 I got to bottle feed some little orphan lambs a couple months ago, and they were the cutest things.
You want a photo of the wool or the sheep? :P The pile of messed up roving is from one those sheep...
Very true, I'll keep that in mind.
I've only heard it pronounced "Lester."
Okay, thanks! I have some silk that I’m afraid to even look at for fear I’ll ruin it 🙈
Ooo, I bet they have a ton of options! I just have to keep it away from my cat or it’ll end up like my roving… :gig
It’s from my grandma’s sheep, which are a mix of Shetland, Icelandic, and Border Leicester, with maybe some Blue face Leicester in there. :P They’re quite the mix!
That’s a good idea, I don’t think I have many wool/fiber stores near me though. I’ll have to look around.
Your batts are so gorgeous! I'm curious, is it harder to spin from a batt than from roving? I've only spun roving, but I'd love to try spinning from a batt sometime.
