Snow Goaties

I really didn't think it would snow again, but we got a dusting, it was sunny, but cold. Guess the goats finally realize its a part of winter and it won't hurt them to walk in it. It was so nice Wednesday, it just didn't look like snow was on its way. I welcomed three new spinners into the world on Wednesday afternoon, Alex, Missy (who already knew how to drop spindle), and Sandra. We sat around the wood stove in the wool room, among dye pots of mohair, and shelves of raw wool ready to be skirted and washed, and shelves of wool ready to be carded. All three took right to it. Missy was amazed at how much faster she could make yarn. Wound the skeins off for them, as all had plans for that first precious handspun. They are hooked.
