Did our good deed of the day! We get regular package deliveries to the fiber mill. Yesterday's drop off was quite action packed. Our delivery guy took a wrong turn and ended up on our neighbor's road, which you can tell is a great toboggan run! After 30 minutes, 4 people, and a bag of salt, we got him out and on his way again with no issues! And the best news... all packages eventually arrived in the mill safe and sound!

We might have a big snow storm on the way with freezing temperatures outside, however, its starting to look a lot like spring inside the mill today!! We just finished this fun wool corespun bump this morning!!
With all this snow and cold weather, this was too funny not to share! Stay warm... spring is coming!!
This was a "challenge accepted" batch of yarn we just finished! It's 100% Babydoll sheep wool! Babydoll tends to be a pretty tricky fiber to spin with how short the staple length is and, not to mention, these little guys seem to be like velcro to vm! Probably because they are so little and just walk right under hay feeders or other critters enjoying the same snacks over top of them! This fleece was the exception to the rule. All the stars aligned and boom... we have a 3 ply babydoll wool yarn thanks to the hard work of our team!
We made some warm wool yarn this morning while Mother Nature thought it would be a good idea to snow buckets outside!
