Look what the UPS man brought me today!Two of my favorite things!
The yarn is some of my Icelandic that I had Stonehedge spin for me. They always do a fabulous job. The oatmeal and creamy white yarns are loosely spun 2 ply done up in (aprox.) 4 oz. skeins/125 yd. per skein. The rich moorit brown is also a 2 ply but in a sport weight skein of 225 yd./3 oz. So nice! I also received 3 colors of roving from them last week, black/grey, (very) black, and moorit brown.Now, for some sheep pics:
Fellicia's little black ewes Helen & Helena. We have SO MANY black lambs this year. I've always loved black sheep,and now our fields are overflowing with them!
Evra, and her badgerface twins (ram & ewe).
The girls love when I open the gate and they can forage in the woods. I sometimes wonder how they manage to find their way home, especially with those young lambs.
Although Charlotte has already twinned, she looks like she could have a couple more in there. (I'm glad she didn't)
Delphine's 3 white triplets, 2 ewes and a ram.They have the pinkest noses and ears!
Beautiful yarns!!! And beautiful lambs. I really like the two black ewe lambs, but they are all adorable!!
ReplyDeleteI just love when you post on your blog!
These little ones are so adorable and we are due for another trip up there so I can love on all the babies! Miss you guys!
ReplyDeleteWe will miss you guys this weekend. Too bad we don't all live a little closer together! Mom is here and enjoying the lambs, but not this 90 degree weather! Where did this come from? Hot unhappy sheep = hot unhappy shepherd! Pray for cool weather!
