Sheep to Spun Wool

Posted by See The Light (Newcastle, United States) on 15 August 2007 in Art & Design and Portfolio.

I have been a Weaver, Spinner, Knitter. most of my life. My love for the sheep goes back a long ways. That is one of the reasons there are sheep shots often. The spinning wheel was built for me about 15 years ago by Aldon Amos a well known wheel builder and incredible wood worker. The yarn is Merino off one of my Merino sheep. It is the softest wool you can purchase. This has been spun sport weight. It will knit a hat or maybe some socks. It will also be dyed.
This entry is for Rabbit who asked me what I do with wool.
