Sons of Norway Spinning Demonstration

Today I'll be with a group from Valley Spinner's Guild demonstrating spinning with some of Shadow's black alpaca that's been mixed with dyed angora.  We'll be at the Bothell Sons of Norway.  Always a good time.


 The process of carding the alpaca with angora...

  1. I enjoyed spinning with you today : ) Shadow's alpaca + the dyed angora are turning out to be a beautiful tweed. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next!
