Fleece Picking Weather

I was so done in by the excitement of the piggies coming home that I sat down with a fleece in the sunshine and lovely breeze. I find fleece sorting very relaxing and settling. This luscious, glossy, soft, heavy fleece will fill two dyepots and use the last of my Jacquard dyes purchased by the pound two years ago. Time for a new order. I have the wool soaking in the machine now. When I see sunshine and blue skies I think wool drying weather. With Big Jim Baldwin coming next Thursday I'll have the last of the fleeces off the sheep and a good bit of mohair to play with too.
