Bags O' Wool

I have been skirting like crazy. I have a hog panel set up on the back porch and between squalls I skirt the fleeces. I have sold and shipped eleven of them but still have 12 more available for sale. I only have 6 sellable fleeces left to skirt!

Today is getting the lambing pens ready day since they are scheduled to arrive on Tuesday!; March 21, 2009 at 7:40 AM

Donna said...: And I just sold 8 more this morning. So far everyone is happy with their fleeces too so all is right with the world- happy spinners, happy shepherds and happy sheep (at least it helps cover their feed bill)! Lambing is supposed to start today too- nothing as of yet though. Hopefully lambing season goes as well as shearing time did!; March 24, 2009 at 7:40 AM
