I hope you had a wonderful holiday season and this New Year brings you joy. And lots of fiber creating!
It’s been busy around here! I (Dani Snyder) competed on an angora 🐇 palooza team (Hare’s to Ewe) where we took angora rabbit fur, spun it and wove a scarf within 3 hours. We finished 2nd out of 4 teams. It was an amazing experience! Later in the week I went as cheerleader and shepherdess for my sheep to shawl team, Mutton But Trouble. We placed 4th out of 10 teams…so proud of my team for their hard work! We used Iris’ fleece and she won best fleece. 😱 It was an absolutely incredible experience. Both competitions were at the Harrisburg PA Farmshow.
This is the 2nd time in 4 months one of my sheep have won best fleece. It has been an incredibly encouraging experience and has helped boost confidence that my hard work is paying off more than I realize. It has also given me the confidence to advertise my fleeces, so in the coming year I plan to post fleeces for sale. Stay tuned!
Have a blessed New Year and may it bring you many fiber blessings!
