Tuesday

I have been M.I.A. lately mostly because my computer is dead, but also because I have been busy getting this DANKEN label to finally take off. I've visited many local organic sheep farms in search of some interesting fibers and have discovered some great sources! Canvas Ranch breeds a special kind of Baby Doll sheep (above + below) which I am going to use to felt organic infant mats and Redhill Farms has about five or six llamas which I think I'm going to make rugs from.
Baby Doll sheep...
Cashmere goats...
I am so excited to use this llama wool! I got the fleeces practically whole.
sheep dog... the barn..
pretty landscape...
fresh eggs
lunch in the car
rain, rain and mostly sheep

a rainbow!
