I have a photo here of the batts from the Jacob Fleece I bought last year at the West Michigan Fibre Festival.
It will be very soft and fluffy yarn. I've been working on loft in my spinning so it'll be perfect for that practice. There are some noils in it, but I'll just pick them out as I spin if I don't like how they are. Sometimes I like the tweedy look they add, so we'll see how it goes when there's spinning going on.
Plus a blast from the past. I haven't waxed poetic in a blue moon so I leave you with this photo of the 2009 daffodil nubbins and a link to my classic poem to their ancestral nubbins of 2008.

Loved your poem! Made me LOL!
ReplyDeleteLucky you getting to spin from fleece too.
Oh my. The artistry and heart-rending depth of that poetry have left me with tears in my eyes.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you have daffodils starting to peek up. As soon as I'm done making breakfast I'm checking outside!
ReplyDeleteNo daffs yet - but some snow somethings are peeking out. I gave you a Kreativ Blogger award on mine!
