Are here!
5 Amerucanas and 5 Speckled Sussex came home Friday afternoon from our local farm store
They are so cute and perky and cheep-y. I could sit and watch them for hours.
But I do have other stuff to get done, so I try to just keep it to 10-15 minutes or so at a time 🙂
Some of that other stuff is wool-related.
I’ve been working on clearing up my fleece processing backlog.
I hope to dye this Felix/Frank yarn with madder sometime later this spring-
And after much waffling, I’ve decided to move ahead with the Chone-Burr sweater project. With this skein I should have almost enough yardage to complete it!
This weekend Edgar started casually inquiring about shearing dates. I think the recent balmy weather is making him anxious to get out of that heavy coat.
And the fleece looks really nice this year. I want to get it off him while it’s still in good shape!
