Well, fall show season is officially over for us, and it's time to take all of the wonderful 'data' we gathered on potential herdsires, and start to plan our breeding decisions for next year. The shows offer great opportunities to scope out the up and coming boys, as well as see a few that are still holding their own as they get older. We had the opportunity to connect with some amazing people this fall, and are looking forward to some road trips in 2010! We are very excited to pair up some of our girls with some really promising prospects!
As much as we love the shows, it is nice to not have to travel for a little while. Time to dig into all of that fiber that's been put on hold! So far, we've been processing our fiber in only it's natural state. This winter's goal is to experiment with some natural dyes and see what we can come up with! I have to say, I do love all of the beautiful natural colors that our animals produce, but I think I'm starving for a bit of COLOR! I'm already thinking about my spring planting, and what I need to add more of in the vegetable and flower gardens... Elderberry, red onions, hmmm... Be sure to check my progress in the Fiber Shop! Hopefully I will have some great new products in some great new colors available!
