Saturday

Alpaca and grey/brown merino just washed and drying on Brigg's cage.
Spun alpaca and merino and silk and mohair.


Now the leaves are falling on the white shatoot mulberry I can finally see the gourds.
Carding nice and early before it gets windy.
Lots and lots of batts.

Pink geranium


Cotton plants very tall now.

Now as tall as me!


The bantam hens.


You can only just see the white bantam, she is cuddled up behind the ginger hens trying to keep out of the cold wind.

Elves on the move.

The elves have moved to the top of the sewing box now.

I am going to make one of those nifty scarflette's with this big ball of soft merino wool.

New teddy bear



Jas and I saw this old, big teddy at an op-shop and brought him home. His ear is about to fall off and I have to sew it on but otherwise he is in great condition. Look Kaye he is wearing the cape you gave me. I will be taking it off him to wear it as the weather gets cooler.

Dewy spiders webs






The pigs are settling in.
