A while back we also took our first spindle spinning class together. She's having a small "fiber day" at her farm in a couple weeks and I wish I could go. <BR/><BR/>It's so cool to see your fleece, which comes from my neck of the woods, all the way through to yarn. So, so cool.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292173.post-105480064938783022008-05-06T21:05:00.000-07:002008-05-06T21:05:00.000-07:00Love the tulle concept, will have to try that - th...Love the tulle concept, will have to try that - thanks!

(And they're such FUN sheep - great outgoing and inquisitive personalities! Like goats or dogs!)<BR/><BR/>You did a great job on the dyeing.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your blog!Stasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16990354330607990999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20292173.post-655295343914541162008-05-06T19:45:00.000-07:002008-05-06T19:45:00.000-07:00What an awesome opportunity!
