Spring Cleaning


 We did get our spring snow yesterday.


It didn't amount to much but it was pretty coming down.



Before Mr. Winter returned yesterday, we had a string of several very warm days that were perfect for tearing into the fleece shed. Spring equals fleece washing around here and I've got a lot to wash as well as a lot to card.



 First I had to dig it all out and figure out what is what. I really need to learn to label things. I have a lot of mystery wool and that's bad.


 I also sorted out the washing and dyeing materials. They were full of dead stink bugs. Ew.


I know this is crazy. Even I think this is crazy but I love dirty wool. It's still a little chilly but as soon as it warms up again, me and this icky stuff have a date for a bubble bath. I can't wait.

    1. No sheep. I just keep buying fleece. I think I may have a problem.

  3. I'm glad you enjoyed your spring snow. My craft room needs a good spring cleaning -- a good job for the rainy days ahead.
