Hey everyone :o)

Want to see my new hand dyed Wensleydale curls? Oh they've come out so well, have a look at my beauties:

   

And just when as I finished drying them, my new bulk of raw Wensleydale fleeces arrived from the wholesaler!! I got the last lot because the fleece season is about to end, no more fleeces until June/July when clipping time starts again...sigh...I'll just have to wait...

Wensleydale fleeces can be extraordinarily dirty. Their curls just hold in the mud, dung, thorns and who knows what, the water the fleeces are soaked in is just one big swampy brew and some fleeces require several washings. It will take at least 1 week to get them nice and clean and sorted - but new hand dyed locks will be coming soon, and perhaps I will have some natural white fleece left to put in my store as 100g sorted lots :o)

By the way, I also got new very soft Merino wool roving in, it's on sale as 250g bulks  and it's displayed in MY EBAY STORE, come and have a look, it's absolutely gorgeous!!
