- This week I received a surprise package from Fossil Fibers in the mail, so we needed an emergency minisode! We open the package (spoiler alert: it’s sheepy) and I talk about some of the reasons I like spinning my own yarn and having a thrifted & me made wardrobe. Thanks for coming, go make something!
Apologies, forgot to spell out one of the sheep breeds on screen, info below!
* The spelling of the black sheep fleece discussed in the episode: Swedish Helsinge *

OMG! Major case of fibre envy with this last one! 😍
That's so awesome! Yes, we'd love a scouring video. That was so kind of them. Gorgeous fleece🤩
The fiber community is so kind in general ☺️ I’ll take any excuse to scour more fiber, thank you for providing one 😉 heating water as we speak!
@Wooltogold Yay!!! I can't wait to see! I swear you just make my whole day with every episode! Yes, we have a community of beautiful people with the biggest hearts. Thank you so much!
The alpaca you have there is very close to the raw alpaca blanket I have. 😊
Very cool! I have an alpaca blanket in my room as well, never shown it on the channel but my dad got it in Panama in the 80’s, just as beautiful today!
Feederbrook Farms has some really amazing fractal spun farm yarn
I have one of their skeins!! So true, they have beautiful fractals and in interesting wools like BFL & Targhee!
Lovely fluff! Fiber-envy is real… Must go stalk Fossil Fibers’ page and see if I can get some more neat fibers! … Not that I *need* to expand my stash anymore lol! Also, as a beekeeper’s daughter, I approve of that shirt. XD
They really have some rad colors too, they make up for my default color sense haha! Bees & wasps (I know I know unpopular opinion) are SO COOL some of my favorite insects! 🐝
Had so many comments I had to put them in a note and cope/paste, whoops.
Love the details about different sheep smells!
I am also going for a me-made/thrifted wardrobe!
You really do do a great job with your content- ver accessible for a learner.
Ooooh Fossil Fibers has reasonably priced fleeces 🤤
What is Icelandic actually like?
Yes, more scouring.
I was in denial in like… October. Now I have three spinning wheels. (Total of $255, i’m not made of money!)
I wanna rub my face all over that alpaca roving
I have an acquaintance who’s opening a small scale mill in Ohio (Kelly at Powers Acres). I’m so surprised at how hard it is for smaller operations to get their wool processed!
Slow life ftw

HUH. Guess I’ll grab some upholstry thread
You can always count on me to put my nose all up in a fleece lol! Me made wardrobes and thrifted wardrobes are totally where the cool kids are at 🤘🏼it is crazy how long mill waits can be, but I’m so excited to see more and more US mills open each year, and the Fibershed expand! Thanks so much for enjoying, happy to have you ✨
@@WooltogoldHA yep thats me im a cool kid. Just sitting at home with my husband (who is trans btw) knitting and watching a tv show from the 60’s!
