The studio has been blessed with the addition of six Alpaca fleece! A very dear person has given them to me! On with the processing of designing projects, learning the in’s and out’s of spinning with alpaca, and eventually weaving a project with homespun alpaca yarn! Since Alpaca contains very little lanolin and these fleeces appear to be very clean with just minute vegetative matter I decided to spin these mounds of fiber in the grease! Here we are with the drum carder rolling…my husband, Walter, is “manning” the beast!
