Weeds update!
This morning the sheep got some alfalfa cubes with some goat grain and some surprises! I tore up some dandelion, plantain, and bedstraw and added it in. At first they ignored the greenery, but soon were gobbling it up! as soon as they were done Lil Boy went in search of more dandelions, and Jett went after some plantains. Looks like the Voth method works quickly on sheep! Going to see what they do after this weekend and if they clear the area enough will be moved into the hoop house area this coming week.
FLEECE
1/2 of Lil Boy's fleece is now ready to spin! the other half will be quilt batting. Oh my god am I glad to be done carding!

Socks! or rather sock...and a toe
Hooray! I have finished my very first sock! I was too excited to wait to put both up here, so I have one, and the toe! Im using the book "Socks from the Toe Up"
Ive got to say that after months (literally) of struggling with an online pattern, this one is magic! see for yourself!
