#fiber stuff

it’s not super neatly made but i like the colors

...just ignore the two and a half pounds of Romeldale CVM wool I still need to comb and/or spin, and the 5 pound Tunis fleece I still haven't even started washing yet. Those aren't in the picture, soooo they don't exist.

Well Nikki decided to drop all her fiber at once this year! It took about 3 days doing one hour sessions to comb this all out but it's nice to be done! I got a nice thirteen gallon trashbag worth of fleece off of her, wich for it's size is only 10.2 ounces of fleece! So next time you look at cashmere and think damn thats expensive just remember that the average cashmere goat only produces around 5oz in a year (also localy produced fiber is always a better buy ;)) So good job Nikki! I'm excited to process this to sell this year, though I'm not sure if i should process it fully into yarn or leave it as cloud for others to spin. Lots of decisions! I have four other goats to comb out and I'm excited to see how their fleeces turn out this year since Nikki's is looking so lovely!

I still haven't finished my jacket project 🙃

happy to help out a fellow spinner!
