This month I have been concentrating on spinning white Shetland fleece. I want to finish off the white Shetland I have before moving on to something else. I haven't done much else spinning related recently as the weather has been so good and I have been busy loving Summer!
So same post as I posted on my other blog about Scottish wool recently which I have copied over here since that is what I am still spinning up. Three bobbins done so far and I estimate just one left to go.
Sheep breeds originating from Scotland! I have been spinning up some beautiful white Shetland wool. Shetland is one of my very favourites offering such a diverse natural colour range and being a fine wool.
And I have washed a lovely light grey North Ronaldsay shearling fleece. North Ronaldsays are a primitive breed and are on the rare breed survival list. They originate from the Orkney Islands off the north coast of Scotland and eat seaweed! In September I hope to share with you more on my adventures with spinning cotton on the charka.
