It has returned!
You remember that ridiculously large package of wool I sent away recently?
It has returned from its adventures... looking still very large, and slightly (ahem, well, maybe more than slightly) battered.
And it contained wool, beautifully combed into top.
Lots of it. Obviously.
Of course I had to take a little bit of the fibre right away, and a spindle, and give it a little twirl - and just like I expected, it spins absolutely wonderfully.
So now I finally have Rhoen sheep wool and Valais Blacknose wool, already prepped ready to spin, in the shop! I'm ridiculously happy about this - and I hope other people will be just as much in love with these two rare sheep fibres as I am!
