It has been a very busy few days but now everything is ready for collection. Bev, Kev and I have been sorting, bagging and weighing loads and loads of raw sheep fleece in readiness for collection by the woollen mill.
We have sorted through all kinds of different fleece, Manx Loughton, Blue Faced Leicester, Portland, Lleyn and Jacob to name a few and now we have a huge pile of bags all tied up, weighed and marked 'Cornish Wools'. It is not an easy job, its heavy and very smelly and oily too (lots of lanolin in some of the fleece) but it is very satisfying to have finished all the preparation.
All we need to do now is wait - until it is all processed into knitting yarn. So watch this space for more new shortly.
