| Finishing her show career with a BANG!, Somerhill Belle Haven was Best of Breed for all four shows at the Wool-a-Rama last weekend. She now has 9 GC legs, and is retired at the tender age of 6 months. This is my third year for the show, and the third time one of my chinchilla does swept the BOB in Satin Angoras. 2 years ago, her grandmother, Somerhill Silver City did it, and last year, Somerhill Driftwood did. |

BFL roving
I've been dyeing Bluefaced Leicester roving in preparation for the Great Lakes Fiber Show next weekend, May 26&27. This is its 23rd year, held in Wooster, OH at the fairgrounds. Each year it gets bigger and better. Besides several buildings full of fibery goodness, there is a sheep show and sale, and an angora rabbit show. Besides the roving, sold in one ounce "flowers", I will also have handspun angora yarns. Look for me in Building 39, just inside the door closest to the food court. Oh, and don't miss having a roasted lamb sandwich. Its worth attending just for that!
