Fall days seem to be upon us and I can see the garden is showing signs of harvest. So far, I have canned homemade salsa and beet pickles, now so is the Antipasto. Moving on I need to get 3-4 heads of cabbage in the freezer for cabbage rolls.
I am still cleaning fleeces so if you are looking for unwashed, raw fibre from Romney or Dorset or Suffolk/Hampshire cross, I will have some available for a month or two.
Our three white Romney are starting to settle in to their new home. Next year, look for fibre from Oaker, baby Crockett and baby Dolly.
Our coloured Romney ram, Bubba who loves to have his face brushed and now has his own brush attached in his stall and can now scratch to his heart's delight!
Save the date for Fibres West 2025 will be held on March 24 & 25, 2025 at the Cloverdale Agriplex. We will be there again with lots of beautiful batts and curls for spinning or felting in 90+ colours, and lovely hand spun for weaving, knitting or crocheting!
And remember, the farm store is available for shopping by appointment. Pick up those stocking stuffers for Christmas! Text or email a day ahead for your personizes shopping.
Take care and have a great day!

Created in my workshop by me and inspired by all things around me!
Gorgeous milled yarn in an Aran/Bulky weight. Slightly darker than shown on this coated fleece. Yarn is strong yet soft with beautiful shine. Perfect for a sweater, or shawl; toque or scarf!
April's fibre is award winning at the 2021 LMSPA Fleece Competition, her score ranking in the mid 90's out of 100. She was edged out by her half brother Denbay.
Each skein varies in weight and metres.
