It's nice to meet you Summer. Buzz is adorable. Your horses are gorgeous. I like to research stuff to death too. You can never have too much knowledge.

Nice interview Summer. I think you need some chickens though, they are fun and make breakfast!

When you get alpacas get at least 2, they are herd animals and won't be real happy alone. Not sure if they would consider horses companions or not though.

@secuono has a thread on fiber work over on BYH, she is also in VA.
I'm woolin' it.

Hi @Kusanar it's nice to meet you! I enjoyed reading your interview. It was a cute story how you found Felix; how crazy he must have sounded when you'd walk in the room, omgoodness I can only imagine! I am sorry for your loss he sounds like a character though
Your "experimental weaving" set up looks pretty cool, too.. what are/did you make?
I think cows are the cutest animal in the world so I'm going to agree, you should definitely get one and share lots of pictures

The weaving really hasn't gone any farther than that. I have now made a hat with the browns, and purchased 1 pound of black Jacob wool and 2 pounds of mixed raw white fleece that I am working on processing and will be using part of to make a scarf to match the bottom band of the hat (I made the hat from darkest brown down to a creamy white at the bottom).

I am learning nalbinding which is the ancient way people (vikings) used to make "knit" stuff before knitting was invented and that's what I'm using the black wool for right now, making a bag right now but it's a very slow process as each stitch is literally sewn in rather than being looped like knitting.
