The end of the week was perfect. After a week of wet and cold we woke up to sun and warmth on Wednesday. I couldn't bring myself to stay in the house and I knew what needed to be done outside.
Finley was ready to be carded. I wasn't ready for how he behaved though. He exploded into big fiber clouds. Weird.
I had to wrestle those batts into shape. Finley's a very lofty boy.
It was so nice out I brought a wheel out and gave him a spin.
I can see it's going to be a bit of a tricky spin. Once the twist goes in it's in for good. Sweet, soft Finley is acting like a Shetland after all. He's got a mind of his own.
Oh, well. I had a sunny afternoon and The Mister's Killian. Finley can do whatever he wants.
Nothing like a great spin and outdoors is even better!
ReplyDeleteSpinning outside is the best!!! And Finley looks beautiful....so soft and fluffy! That looks like an Ashford Traditional that you're spinning him with....my Ashford is miffed at me for spending all my time with the Kromskis. LOL!
ReplyDeleteGood eye. It is a Traditional!
