Angora Yarn Ahoy!

It's been almost two months, but boy have those two months been busy!!!

We have all been frantically spinning! I have been going through as much angora as I can on my drop spindle, as you can see here:


But the more impressive showing is my mother's progress with her Louet spinning wheel!!! She has been spinning for 2+ hours a night almost every night, working with Lincoln wool, alpaca, and of course our own angora! Here is what she has cranked out, modeled by me with varying degrees of success:





We have also been having fun with the drum carder, and I have plans to blend some tort angora with some chocolate brown alpaca my mother purchased from a farm in Missouri in the near future! If only life would get out of my way for a few minutes. :-)


As always, we have angora fiber for sale!!! Please contact us with any questions at seedorff.family.farms@gmail.com or comment on this post!
