Well, clearly, not for everyone.
This year’s harvest was 32 pounds. Alpaca in pale fawn, dark brown, and white. Shetland in cafe au lait and gray. Mohair in a gray/white mix. Drop us a line if you are interested–we have or can prepare raw fleece, cleaned and skirted fleece, dyed fleece, roving, dyed roving, yarn (any weight or blend), and dyed yarn. Prices vary by type of fiber and work requested.
And though many of you have already seen this, I again present, Delli, the screaming alpaca:
A huge thank you, as always, to Kristen R. for her professional shearing and her great sense of humor!
