I picked out a beautiful black Shetland, which I swear could be the softest sheltland I’ve ever felt.  It has a bit of veggie matter in it, but I think that it will all work out in the wash.

Then I got this gorgeous Coopworth.  I’m still drooling over the projects in a Fine Fleece and keep thinking about my Romney’s in the basement.  I picked this one especially because it has definite variations in the fleece.  From very light silver to very dark gray.

I was thinking more texture in the way of thick and thin, but I can’t really complain – there is a lot of texture and it’s so soft and bouncy.

After seeing Julie’s beautiful fleeces come back. I finally got myself in gear and packed up my fleeces. I was hoping to get them all in the box below, but I couldn’t manage it this time and put two little ones in the top box. It took me a while, because I started to hmm and haw over whether I should put the Cormo I bought earlier in the box. I didn’t have as good luck with the washing as I normally do. Normally I put them in a bag and wash… with this one I should’ve washed lock by lock. Oh well… live and learn. I’m sending them to Spinderella’s and she’ll probably make it beautiful and tell me I’m worrying too much. Hopefully – keep you’re fingers crossed.
