This is what's on my wheel today....just started this morning. It's alpaca from Winderwood Farm. Not too soft, but I'm spinning it very thin...hoping for yarn that will be good for a lacy shawl.
Thanks Carissa! They're growing up too fast. I just love spending so much time with Caitlin at home now that the oldest are in school. I love spinning that roving, but it's not the softest alpaca. If it doesn't sell, I may spin the remainder of the batch and knit something lacy.
I am a 33 year old SAHM of 4 children(Cara-12, Brendan-10, Caitlin-6, Kendall-17 months) and married to Sean for 13 years. Sean and I went to high school together for a year, but never met...until we began working at the same place after I graduated! We were friends, then dated for about a year..then got married in 1997. It's been a long journey, but I wouldn't change any of it for anything..we wouldn't be who we are now! I love to stay home and work on my spinning, knitting and fiber projects. And, I'm rarely seen without some kind of knitting/crocheting project in hand! I take orders for handspun yarn...with fibers including angora, alpaca, wool and chiengora(dog hair). I also create unique fiber batts for the spinner. And more recently, I've taken orders for knit and crocheted items such as hats, mittens, scarves, etc....
