Finn Sheep


My friend, Terry, owns some of the most beautifully colored Finn Sheep!  Terry had an exceptional lambing season this year.  Her pasture is dotted with an array of rare colored, woolly little beasts.  I was lucky enough to go home with a beautiful brown fleece from last year's production and I have already washed and carded it.  What a nice wool to work with!

Duncan Carder


I love my new carder. It's a tabletop electric carder built by Duncan Fiber Enterprises in Oregon. Since dyeing all kinds of fiber, I am able to produce lovely batts in preparation for my Feltloom which should be completed this month.
