This has been my week and the colors of my world. In these pictures are so many of the steps and stages of what I do, and of course what I love !!! #fiberfarm #makingitmyself #farmyarn #angoragoats #coloredangoragoats #mohair #mohairyarn #alpaca #alpacayarn #merinowool #merinowoolyarn #byhand #marylandgrown #naturalcolors #naturalcoloryarn #yarnswift #yarnwinder (at Avalon Springs Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbNvXoarP6g/?utm_medium=tumblr

There’s a few skeins of mohair and silk lace weight left in the shop, including this blue which would look fabulous with Frost, one of my winter colours! #mohair #mohairyarn #mohairandsilkyarn #mohairandsilk #yarn #prettyyarn #handdyedyarn #indiedyedyarn #indiedyer #imarealknitter #imarealdyer #indiedyer #stitchmarkers #knittersofinstagram #crochetersofinstagram #igknitter #igyarn #yarnaddict #yarnaddiction #igyarn #stashenhancement #yarnstagram #linktoshopinprofile https://www.instagram.com/p/BpmsTEIF_MA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gvvcq7tn1lvy

The girls were shorn not that long ago. There is always this short period where the hair can be seen coming in, but the first curls aren’t full yet and they don’t have the trademark angora goat look yet. In a couple more weeks they will look totally different. But who can complain... the day is gorgeous and I’ve got good goatie girls!! 💚 #avalonspringsfarm #angoragoats #coloredangoragoats #mohair #fiberfarm #fiberfarmher #furureyarn #marylandsmallfarms #mohairyarn #marylandfiberartist #lovemygoats (at Avalon Springs Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO39P1lJWj2/?utm_medium=tumblr

Photo essay of our trip down to Lisa Shell of Kai Mohair! Beautiful drive down through Blue Ridge mountains, then loaded Westin (stud buck) and Waldo (wing man & pal) into our old pickup. They traded places putting their heads into the cab - saying hi. We got home to a big strawberry colored moon with our strawberry colored goats! And today getting to know them and introduce Westin to the girls. #avalonspringsfarm #angoragoats #coloredangoragoats #ilovemohair #fiberfarm #mohairfarm #farmlife #futureyarn #mohairyarn #farmtoyarn (at Avalon Springs Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUDxTujJw9T/?utm_medium=tumblr

This is my adorable little Snowball. She is a traditional white angora goat. As a matter of fact, there’s not too many on our colored angora goat farm. Perhaps that’s why I think it’s so funny that she doesn’t care about a little mud or mess. “Aahh well, it’s washable” she says, “and I’m still cuddly in your lap” every once in a while. Happiness is a backyard goat! #avalonspringsfarm #angoragoats #coloredangoragoats #goatlife #mohair #ilovemygoats #goatfarm #fiberfarm #farmlife #ilovemohair #naturalfibers #homegrownyarn #futureyarn #mohairyarn #yarnfarm (at Avalon Springs Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTC5C-er0_h/?utm_medium=tumblr

Normally I don’t post my Works In Progress, but this one is near and dear. The fiber for this yarn is from my farm and a neighbor; it was grown, shorn, skirted, washed here all by hand. Then made into top and spun @gurdy.run.woolen.mill It will only be offered as natural or natural dyed. I’ve got a beautiful array of six colors already from 3 solids and 3 matching marled colors. Today I’m harvesting some of my plant materials for dyeing. I’m really enjoying this! #avalonspringsfarm #naturalfibers #mohairyarn #woolyarn #naturalyarn #locallygrown #locallyspunyarn #yarn #makingyarn #marylandsmallfarms #marylandsmallbusiness #knitlove (at Avalon Springs Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CS-EIVwpkEs/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hurrah! I’ve just added some scrumptious new yarns to the shop, as well as some smashing new stitch markers! I’ve started adding in some Halloween Yarns, and more is on the way! 🎃🧙‍♀️ #yarn #shopupdate #etsyshop #etsyyarnshop #knittersofinstagram #crochetersofinstagram #igknitter #igcrocheter #iguarn #yarnaddict #yarnaddiction #imarealknitter #knitsnotbots #yarnnotbots #stashenhancement #miniskeins #sparkleyarn #mohairyarn #kidsilkyarn #linktoshopinbio https://www.instagram.com/p/BnRRNj1HAyK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1l95g9xy3i4r9
