Baking Bread

 

When I have the time I like to bake our bread.  This loaf was delicious.  I used mostly spelt flour.

 

More Frosts

We have continued  frosty mornings throughout August.

The sheep never forget to arrive in the same spot each morning for hay.

 



 

This one always has food on its face.

 

 

Some of the sheep are quite old now but still doing really well.  The sheep are shorn in summer as they need a good fleece to keep them warm in winter.

Lots of Chunky

 

Busy times here spinning lots of chunky yarn.

 

And dyeing the yarn.

And waiting for the yarn to dry

 

 

Some yarn has been listed on Etsy

 

And some yarn is for the Arts Centre Market in Melbourne

 

This yarn is spun using English Leicester from my sheep.

Frosty Mornings

 

 

We have new neighbours in the paddock across our gravel road. There is a third cow but she wasn't in the mood for a photograph today.

I really like to have cows in the neighbouring paddock.  Over time they become very friendly and come to the gate for a chat.

 

Most mornings at present are very cold and frosty.

 

The sheep are turning up for breakfast covered in frost.

 

Fibre Arts finished on Monday night.  I had a most enjoyable week.  Now I'm replenishing stock for the market and Etsy.  Today I'm listing on Etsy.

 

Its the end of the week and I still have so much to finish.

This morning I have dyed some yarn and listed yarns on

Etsy

 

 

This afternoon I have more yarn to dye, Felted hats to finish for the Arts Centre Market on Sunday and yarn to prep for dyeing.

Tomorrow will be a dyeing day.
