More Sheepy Stuff

Bright white and soft Finn fleece.
A very pregnant Apple. Lambs coming soon!
Feet trimming. Look at that tummy :-) Not a very ladylike position.
Abby has a big bulge on either side...hope it's twins!
The black is Abby's second shear. It's very crimpy and soft!
The white is Lacey's Finn lamb fleece.
So soft and shiney!

Beautiful fleeces. Love to see those "promising" round tummies. Lambing season is just around the corner!

Jody, I am so glad that you posted pictures of the shearing. All that gorgeous fleece looks so soft. The white Finn looks really scrumptious.
Soon you will have cute little babies.

Oooh ,oooh what yummy fleece :) I bet they will be a joy to spin too. Looking forward to seeing the lambs now ;)
The Cormo I used was from Tasmania,not covered and very mucky but I do have a wee bit of covered Cormo left but it was not as fine as the other ,even if it was cleaner !!!
I was amazed though how clean it came up using a bar of soap a la Margret Stove method :)

Wow! Early shearing! We usually had to wait until late May! Guess we're a lot further North than you! Any chance any of that gorgeous Finn or Gotland fleece will end up for sale?
