WoollyTime

TheTime has arrived again. 6,5 kg of our own ethic produced angora wool is waiting to be sent to the mill. Yes, our angora rabbits have produced that much in a year.

Well, it was a bit cold moment in my snowy garden where I spread the wool on tarpaulin over the snow to sort it out and clean it from the trash when arctic wind was blowing from RussiaDirection all the way from Siberia. Bhrrr... But the wool was warm so my hands were not too frozen.

Last June we finally got our first AAW out of the mill. The angora wool was mixed with natural white FinnSheep RawWool. This time we mix it with natural black and grey (above) FinnSheep RawWool and ArcticDogWool.

It is going to be very interesting spring again to be patient and to wait how it all will turn out and how does it all look when the mill has done its job! Most of the FinnSheep RawWool we added was natural black (above; with blink of grey) but ArcticDogWool we use is pure white! Before we have made AAW and OOW but this is the 1st time to mix all these three elements together: DogWool, AngoraWool and FinnSheepWool.
