Jon and I had the most delicious egg sandwiches at the Wooden Solider Diner in Fair Haven on our way to get my wool in Brandon, VT this morning. It’s one of those diners that never got updated, not in the past 40 or so years anyway.
I picked up about forty skeins of wool from the Vermont Fiber Mill. They’re Green, Blue, Red and Purple and work beautifully together. Red was so comfortable on the alpaca rug he didn’t want to get up to leave.
The alpaca’s came out to greet us as we were leaving. Deb and her husband raise them, and sell their wool as products or yarn.
I’ll be putting up my wool up for sale in my Etsy Shop sometime over the weekend.
I love the colors! I’ll be watching Etsy!
Oh Great Susie, thanks!
Will Alpacas be next, on Bedlam farm? 🙂 Watching a documentary the other day, and it was talking about how Alpacas eat less than other animals, are more docile and easy to keep, and of course, their wool is amazing. The documentary said they are wonderful animals to keep, and can handle cold weather well. Plus they are adorable! Those hair do’s!
I’ve heard good things about Alpacas too Karla. But we’re going to stick to the donkeys and sheep. They do look like stuffed animals.
