Follow Us For Wool!

Wild Rose Farm #44 Ready & Packed Up For Pittsburgh Indie Knit & Spin!
We're all packed up and ready to go to Pittsburgh Indie Knit & Spin tomorrow!  We had our first snow of the season this morning and that should put everyone in the mood for wool.  We'll have our naturally dyed fine wool yarns, Rambouillet combed top, Dorset wool quilt batts, and some wool locks and llama locks for Santa beards and crafting.
Lace Weight Yarn Gently Simmering …
We finished up some dyeing earlier this week and got our new pencil roving packaged too.  The yarn is simmering in a stainless steel fish poacher that I found at a rummage sale this summer. Someone changed their mind & I don't think it was ever used - it still had stickers on it.  It's PERFECT for processing lace weight yarn since it tends to "felt" so easily if it swims around too much.
Let's leave you with a picture of the snow this morning on the roof of the new garage/studio.  When we get back from IKS, we'll unload all of  the yarn and wool into it's new home in the studio … finally!
1st Snow On The Studio Roof This Morning!
