Fleece Invasion!
Thursday, April 14, 2011 at 1:58PM Every day for the past week or two, I've had boxes of fleece delivered to the house. They're starting to take over! It's all for a great cause though: my "Are Ewe Well-Bred?" fleece study is alive and rolling!
So far, I have these fleeces in my house:
3 California Reds, 3 Shetlands, 2 Rambouillets, 2 Cheviots, 3 Gulf Coast Natives, 1 CVM, 1 Jacob, 2 Black Welsh Mountain Sheep, and about 15 more bags full of miscellaneous wool that I've acquired over the past few weeks from local farmers.
Where do I keep it all?
In the hall of my studio:
And in the basement:
(here, you can see the Jacob fleece)
(this is one of the Rambouillets spread out for inspection):
And in the studio kitchen (California Red that I'm cold soaking)
And in the studio (California Red drying)
Doesn't it look like a whole bunch of fun?!
