The crazy wrens are back. Every year, they fill Chuck's tool bins with moss, and build a nest in the rabbitry somewhere. This one was completed yesterday, and is a piece of art. I hope they use it, I enjoy having the little nuts around.

Prepping for Great Lakes Fiber Festival in Wooster, OH
Cabin fever? Spring fever? Whatever it is, I have gotten the "bug" to work with fibers again. I have 3 batches of roving ready to have processed. They will be limited editions - blends of CVM, kid mohair, suri alpaca, peace silk, and of course SATIN ANGORA. They are all natural colored; a red, a chocolate, and a silvery grey.
If the festival is cancelled, I will still have these available here on the website.
I have a BFL fleece in the wash tub right now, and a gorgeous BFL/CVM cross fleece drying. They will probably be dyed in pastels and blended with white Satin Angora.
Next, to start washing and dyeing BFL locks.

New REWs
I grabbed the chance to get a doe from GrCH Somerhill Winter Haven, sister to my GrCH Somerhill Belle Haven. She is sired by GrCH Oceanview Smooth Magic.
Welcome to Somerhill, MMR Winter Wonderland.

I decided to get her brother, too. This is MRR Winter Knight. He is available for sale. I would not mind keeping him around to show for a while.
