The Happy Rover

For the past week or so I have been packaging gorgeous alpaca roving from my friend's alpaca farm in Leelanau County Michigan. I have also been spinning alpaca fiber for a sweater/jacket for myself! So far I have the back of the jacket completed and just finished spinning the yarn for the fronts. I am spinning as I go as this is my first big "spin for me" project and I am keeping a record of how much yardage I am spinning from each 4 oz skein. Today I am going out to the farm, Aral Peak Alpacas, to take part in my first shearing adventure! I cannot wait.
