Well after two years of working on our farm wool mill, we finally have some wool roving for sale.
This has been something we have wanted to do for 10 plus years!
I am excited and nervous at the same time!!

Sandra, you could not have chosen a cuter name for your company -- it's perfect! And I love your site. I wish I could spin -- unless you have good felting ideas for that gorgeous Romney roving, maybe with one of the lighter shades to use as contrast somehow :)

Best of luck!

Rosemary,
Thank you :)
I have not really done any felting. I have heard Romney does not felt easily, but then have heard of others using it. I am not much help there.

Ahh. I see. Well, of course that makes sense. Only fairly coarse wool is good for felting, I've heard. Oh but that is such beautiful roving. If only I could spin. Your products are beautiful. With your permission, I will post them on my local yarn shop's Ravelry site. Okay?

Best wishes for great success in your new business!
