I have made up 3 bags of handpainted super soft Merino fleece wool, 18microns and yummy soft :o) Those are my last lots, so I am selling them at a low price of $10.00 per bag in my Etsy store at www.alltheprettyfibers.etsy.com . Feel free to have a look, the colours are goregous:

And I have listed my third "Cirque Du Soleil" yarn design made from a commercially dyed 18micron super soft Merino wool. It is also displayed on Etsy.

I think this week I will take one day off and go walking with Sam - I am quite frustrated about the new outbreak of foot and mouth down South :o( and I really really really really hope that it will not spread again this time. Perhaps it was indeed an escaped bug from that veterinary lab. nearby the farm where the virus broke out. They blame it on the flood waters that the bug could have been carried out. Honestly I don't care what the cause was, I only hope that this bug will be contained quickly and safely and return to the petri dish where it belongs to make vaccines from it . I just wish the government would have vaccinated all the healthy beasts 6 years ago, and all the slaughtering of millions of animals could have been avoided. WHAT A SHAME AND WHAT A WASTE IT WAS... yes, I am frustrated about all this indeed, and I will so pack up my dog and my rucksack and go walking in the hills and let my spinning wheel rest as well.

EVERYONE HAVE A VERY GOOD WEEK! :O)
