Sunnyside up

Sun is out and snow is gone. Started a fire in the wood stove in the garage. Got an 8' long dark red mohair fleece soaking in the washer, will be great for embellishment.Part of the fleece from Dan, the Cormo ram is drying behind the stove and a skein of Cotswold yarn in a multi brown mix is hanging on the drying rack.I have not processed a lot of Cormo fleece, but find I do a better job if I wash small lots at a time and hand process to avoid neps that the picker and carder create.Spent most of the morning feeding and putting out hay then onto scraping up a lot of manure and mud around the barns, it will work wonders on the garden.Grandkids are here for a few days!
