Even on the hot day we had at Hay on Wye market last week my lovely customer brought her gorgeous hat in to show me. She bought the wool just before last Christmas, made the hat and wore is all through the cold weather. Thank you so much for bringing it along..... I love it!

We finished shearing all our sheep this morning and think they all look so much smarter now. It also means, of course, that we have got a huge amount of wonderful fleece to get ready for sale.

The very last sheep to be sheared was Deal and this is her, the black one, in the middle of the picture. As we only shear one or two every day it takes a while to get round to everyone and as you will have noticed everyone likes to come into the yard to be with their friends even if we only need a couple of them!

Market in Hay on Wye as usual tomorrow and it's promises to be another good one. Look forward to a chat if you can make it.

On it's very first outing ...... our first batch of Romney yarn, spun from the fleece kindly provided by our next door neighbour's sheep. On the top is a lovely natural cream; more creamy than our Naturally Sheep White Shetland yarn. And at the bottom the selection of dyed Romney yarn we also took to the market in Hay on Wye on Thursday. If you missed us we will be there again this Thursday having spent a few days topping up the display.

Just to tempt you further.... last week the busker was really good, as was the ice cream! And of course, as usual, there was lots of lovely hand crafted things to admire and take home with you as well as everyday staples.

See you Thursday!

Ops! It's so cold today and somebody got his weather forecast wrong!.... Leaving your fleece around the field is not a good idea this early in the year really.

Lets hope it warms up for the market in Hay on Wye on Thursday.

We're having a special day and giving our new 'Guest' yarn it's first outing. What wool is it you may be asking? Come and look and I doubt you'll be disappointed. We'll have it in it's natural sheepy white and also the beginnings of our new hand dyed range.

Look forward to seeing you!

Celebrating St Davids Day yesterday with the WI in Whetton and I was very chuffed to be ask to give a talk about woolly things and Sheared Treasure. As you can see I took some of my equipment for the ladies to 'have a go' afterwards.

Huge thank you WI for a lovely day!

Our first daffodil absolutely glowing in our garden!

We've already got birds singing and snowdrops and know that spring has started to 'sprung' and the grass is beginning to 'riz' so it was wonderful to get up this morning to a daffodil.

Look forward to seeing you on Thursday as usual in Hay on Wye with lots of lovely pure new wool and our knitted goodies!

Oh my goodness.....where ever did January go? I hope you had a chance to hunker down in the warm and drink hot chocolate like we did!

But we have also been busy, and out and about. As well as caring for our sheep and other farm chores we have been attending Hay on Wye market every Thursday too. If you're a regular you will know January is usually a quiet month and this year was no exception. We did though enjoy meeting everyone that came and appreciate that it is not always easy to come out when the weather is so cold and wet.

I've also been very occupied with new product planning over the last few weeks and I'm very pleased to reveal our new peg loom mug mats. These are woven with my hand spun yarn for extra thickness and texture and would make a fine gift or treat for yourself. I will have some with me this Thursday so please do come and check them out.

Another new project is in the pipeline and I'll let you know all about it next time. Meanwhile, enjoy another cosied up month in February if you can. I just love snowdrops and dog walking is even more of a joy as we spot them in the hedgerows.

Wishing all our much appreciated and lovely customers, face book followers and friends a happy and peaceful Christmas. We look forward to catching up again in the new year.

Colin, Heather and all the sheep ###
