Libby's Sweaters



My shepherd/long distance rider friend, Libby, designs and knits fabulous sweaters. I'm always surprised when she has time to sit down and do such amazing fibery things. Libby has hundreds, yes, hundreds of sheep and lots of horses. She puts the horses on a treadmill to keep them in shape for the endurance riding she does. When she first told me about her rides I didn't believe her, so I Googled her and there were the stats. Like, Wow! Libby's 500 acres farm is about 3 hours away. I wish we lived closer. I would ask Libby to adopt me and be my fiber-mentor. Anyway, Libby and I share a love of good, handspun classic sweaters. Here is a sweater she designed for one of her three handsome sons.
