It's here!

The huacaya alpaca fiber arrived today! The boy and I worked on carding and spinning it tonight.

After:















Now, I need to think of some projects for the stuff. Perhaps a felted bag or two?

    Alpaca is too wonderfully soft to felt - make a really nice wrap or scarf or something else where the softness will be appreciated

    or start making squares to sew together into an afghan down the road..
