Marietta show results

 I had a good day at the show in Marietta today.   Show A was judged by Jacinta Taulbee.   She placed my white SR doe as BOB - which gave her her championship.   (she is for sale - Wintry Mix)

My red doe, MidKnight Sun, was BOV, which gave her her championship as well.  

Continuing on with a good day at Marietta show - in Show B, judged by Stacy Martin,  Whitecap, white JR buck was BOB.  His littermate, White o'Morn, was BOS.    And my broken red JR buck, Roman Candle, was BOV.   So they now each have one leg.    Can you tell it was MUCH later in the day - I was just as happy, but starting to look a bit tired.   LOL

UARC Fall Wool/Skein/Garment contest

 We had a great time at the 2 day show in Piketon, OH  this past weekend, and here are the results of the Wool/Skein/Garment contest that UARC held during the event.   First, thanks to Emily Ashton for judging and especially for taking the time to explain her placings.  We always learn something from her comments, which help us improve for the next time.  

Catherine A Greenwood  put in a lot of effort with her entries, and it showed.  She had best skein, best wool and best garment, sweeping the awards.  Her garment entry was a pair of fingerless gloves that she spun, dyed, and knit from a pattern she made.  

Best of the Best was the skein.   

Many thanks to the other participants; Jen Richardson, Molly Callicoat, and me.

Best Garment - hand spun, hand dyed, knit fingerless gloves

Best wool is pictured along with all the other entries.

Born on 9-30-22


 GrCH Somerhill Knights in White Satin and GrCH Somerhill Tsunami have 6 new little white wonders.  They look so peaceful, right?  This photo was my 4th attempt to catch them in between squeaking and leaping that would make an Olympic gymnast jealous.
