Sale Ends Sunday Midnight and Shetland Lambs are Dropping like Flys

Its time for the darling little shetlands and I can't wait to see all the colors this year, so far two whites, a ram and a ewe. The ram has already been the star of a photo shoot and the ewe will have a two day shoot next week. Hopefully I will have a few more whites by then so we can have a gaggle of lambs for the shoot.

Our Ravelry do it natchwoolie group sale ends Sunday at midnight CST so round up your purchases before the deadline.

Keep an eye on the store for lots of new stuff coming in this week. We will have new listings coming up daily.

I will start photographing lambs this week as the temps will be warmer I HOPE!

Sneak Peek at March Samples

Here is a little sneak peek at our March samples going into the Phat Fiber Sampler Box.

In honor of the latest twin lambs named polka and dot, we have a little polka dot tied bundle of washed and overdyed Shetland fleece for the Lucky ones in our "Irish Moss" colorway. We overdye our colored Shetland fleeces in many different colors and shades with natural plant dyes. This particular one was harvested on our farm.



This is ready to spin, just finger tease a little and start spinning, it will make an awesome heathery varigated yarn. There are many shades in this one little bundle. Core spin it. Tail spin it. If you prefer to card it-you will get a different effect. If you have a drum carder - throw it in with something else. There are no rules.




Our other teaser is a sample of our natural plant dyed Merino Wool Top. We stripped it down and bumped it so you get all the color varigations. A very interesting spin and next to skin soft 100% merino. This colorway is "Irish Moss" as well, but quite different from the Shetland Fleece.
Both will be available in the store very soon.
