Oh if mom doesn't spin I do . I would love to make a bargain for the wool. Those alpacas are great animils.

I wish I could spin, I tried and it's really hard. But then I'd just have to sell all my yarn as I can't crochet or knit either. Oh, well.

Blue_Frog your moms new alpacas are gorgeous. So soft looking, now I want to go find an alpaca to pet.

My mom has been taking courses in spinning, natural dyes, etc. and I think shes going to be getting into felting as well -- i'll definately keep you in mind after shearing time next year tho!! She has a really small herd (more of a hobby farm) and most of the fleeces have been sent away to a fiber co-op mill to get them turned into wool (im getting a sweater - woo! ).

I've been trying to learn how to use a drop-spindle since I dont have room at my place for a full size wheel like she has - but I think i need more practice. My wools always come out lumpy!

Wooooot! I was wondering when we would get to see pics of these alpacas, Alison, and they are so beautiful! They have some great names too
