Yarn
NEW! NEW! NEW! - Our 2007 Wool Yarns and Roving are in!!
We have two new sport weight yarns from '07.
The first ‘07 yarn is the LASTOO BLEND after our moorit spotted ewe, queen of the
flock. This is the ewe who baits our 135 pound guard pyrs by eating, and pretending
to enjoy, their food. She loves a fight, hasn't met a gate she can't bust (she only
stays on our farm because she so enjoys torturing the dogs), and has produced a long
line of equally tart, independent sheep. Don't you want to wear something made out
of yarn with that sort of attitude? And despite that attitude, the yarn is soft and
knits to a lovely, romantically blurred tweed). Each skein is single ply, sport weight,
250 yards and around 6 ounces. $25.00/extremely generous skein.
Our other ‘07 yarn is the RASTA BLEND. She is a black and white spotted sheep, brash,
forward, fierce. Her yarn is a tweedy black, as appropriate for high fashion knitwear
as it is for a cap for Dad. Again, Each skein is single ply, sport weight, 250 yards
and around 6 ounces. $25.00/extremely generous skein
Our 07 roving is a white/moorit 100% Green Fence Farm Icelandic blend. Soft, versatile, incredibly easy to spin (the long outer coat catches the cashmere like undercoat to make a durable, yet soft yarn). $3/ounce.

Angora Fiber
Our clipped, prime German Angora rabbit fiber comes in a variety of colors and packed carefully in one ounce bags (you would not believe how much fiber it takes to make one ounce of this stuff!). $6/ounce with the following colors available now:
WHITE
CHOCOLATE CHINCHILLA
LILAC (only one ounce left at this time)
CHOCOLATE
CHINCHILLA (Gray)
We also offer white, black/gray (mixture of chinchilla and black), and light brown (mixture of chocolate and chocolate chinchilla) wool suitable for felting. This is the fiber that didn't make the first cut (har har) – either it had some mats, or the staple length was a bit short, or it is the baby rabbit's first clip, or it just wasn't perfect). It does perfectly for your felting projects: $3/ounce
Cashmere
Purchasing Yarn & Wool
Other Wool
White Icelandic Sheep/German Angora blend: By popular demand: lovely white wool mixed with our even lovelier white clipped angora for a spinner's deream -- warmth, shine, and fullness of angora with the memory and spinning easy of Icelandic: $5/ounce.
Moorit/White (and silver and tan) blend: From our 2007 shearing (see the yarns above to get an idea how it spins up). Easy to spin, soft, and clean. $3.50/ounce.
Moorit: This roving is soft with very little VM. I love it and want to felt it into purses, and hats, and gloves. I’ve got plans! So don’t buy it. $3/ounce.
White: Not as nice as the moorit. I just don’t think our white sheep are conditioning enough. Still good stuff to dye. It is as soft as the moorit, just a little more dingy, the unattractive girlfriend that the real stunners always run around with. But it is a good deal. $2/ounce.
