Her name is Lindsey, our history is interesting as I always felt that we were connected. We met over fibre, what else. Over the years we have been each others shoulders and have always had each others backs. She is the designer and goddess of the website and the one who holds the social media end of my life together. She is the photographer behind the photos of the farm and has actually finally made me understand about taking pictures without breaking into a sweat. She is also an incredible fibre artist. Her spinning batts which can be found on her page of the commerce section are an absolute delight. I love her passion for fibre, people, not being afraid to query, for being brave and life. Thank you Lindsay ,for everything you do for me and those around you. Thank you for being my friend and kicking my ass, as usual , you were right. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b8c1146d6971954e1482f/1611081879545-TN84CM0MQ4UM8FNNGB46/Screen+Shot+2021-01-19+at+10.43.02+AM.png Farm Journal - Hey there 2021! The hope is that you will hear from me on an at least a bi weekly basis. Might not be much but hey, what ever. I will chat about the sheep, the dogs, the horses, and farm life in general https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b8c1146d6971954e1482f/1611082053793-ZE00OH6MTVYQO01CGN81/image-asset.png Farm Journal - Hey there 2021! I will take pictures of the garden and tell you what grows in there.You can watch the seasons change in the orchard if you want to see pictures of it- Let me know! This year I intend to break ground on a natural dye garden. We can do that together in pictures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b8c1146d6971954e1482f/1611082206029-4WMMZFDE1WQ5ZPI0W68C/image-asset.png Farm Journal - Hey there 2021! You can see the lambs that are being born this year . Earlier today I recorded a video of “fleece washing 101- for small spaces” Give it a watch- at some point we will work through a fleece together- . Same as knitting a sweater using the EPS system. Maybe it should be the hand spun from the fleece you watched me work through. I love fleeces- so much potential. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b8c1146d6971954e1482f/1611082290777-D51UWPGOVWSEHG4FQF5U/image-asset.png Farm Journal - Hey there 2021! Right off, Chris and I would like to thank you from the very bottom of our hearts for your support during this pandemic. Without the fibre shows our future was looking pretty grim, because of your purchases, we could feed the sheep and stay afloat. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b8c1146d6971954e1482f/1611082453852-1VFZV4FCD7SU8SKVBTKN/image-asset.png Farm Journal - Hey there 2021! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b8c1146d6971954e1482f/1611082641479-NNNP9C6U881OC9QNO7OZ/image-asset.png Farm Journal - Hey there 2021! I also have many projects on the go and many more on the horizon. I am a process person, the final result is to be celebrated indeed ,but it is really the journey that I love. I don't tend to make resolutions but I do make intentions. This year my intentions included amongst other things, that I must finish all the knitting projects started before casting on anymore. As I am a wise woman, I made sure that I spent a good chunk - as in most of December 31- casting on projects. That way the ones I really have been drooling over are legal! Cast on and 1row? Game on!!! So- here is the current knitting project- Pattern Cobblestone Cardigan- Brooklyn Tweed. My fibre is Our Shropshire- which will be up on the web site Saturday. Pics to follow on next Blog. I am just finishing the plying on my sisters Christmas presents- Yes - they are going to be late - Next I will finish spinning my portion of the 4 sisters project -the tale of which will be a future post. I am spinning some samples of the new “ web site update on Saturday” spinning delights. They are fun. I have nothing on the loom at this time but will likely putting on a warp next Sunday. We had two sweet wee barn kittens learning to be social in the house ,pre adoption and they are absolutely not compatible with warps. There is also a needlepoint and a half hooked rug hanging out somewhere. Remember- no point rushing these things. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b8c1146d6971954e1482f/1611082837617-MVDRQ3AOVH2EPZOMG0XF/Screen+Shot+2021-01-19+at+11.00.13+AM.png Farm Journal -
