Purple Preferred?

Which purple combed top do you prefer?

The targhee?

Or the Romeldale:

We love purple!!

And, exciting news!  Our dark gray/black rovings are back from the mill!!  This is an absolutely lucious blend of 70% Pygora/30% fine Merino and is pure heaven to spin!!!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

This past weekend, I should’ve been out raking leaves.  What a mess!!!  Yet, I also needed to clean up the mess in my studio…


I had some visitors last weekend - and they were nice enough to not mention that big messy pile of roving and top!  And in case you’re wondering - no, I did not dye all of that in one weekend….I just got behind in my photo-taking and packaging.
Now it all looks nice and neat….

This inventory will be added to the website in the next couple of days.  It includes more of that yummy Romeldale combed top from Benny that we had available last year!

Shearing Attire 101
Filed under: General
Posted by: Terry & Susan @ 9:25 pm

For those who actually read this blog, you’ll remember Susan gave a great description of shearing attire a few weeks ago.  I’m not stupid, I know better than to take photos during a shearing session (paybacks are painful!).  Therefore, you’ll never EVER see any photos from our “shearing parties”. 

However, if you look quickly, poor Sarah has made the front page at Hawk’s Mountain Ranch again!!!  Here is an accomplished goat shearer in her finest!    http://www.hmrpygoras.com/

My apologies to Sarah for pointing out this great photo - - it’s late in the day, I’m tired (and still at work) and I just couldn’t help myself!!
