Greenberry's Bina Wade Busy week, catching up on computer work and doing some needed bunny chores. I sheared this lovely pure German Angora doe on Friday. Bina's mother is descended from some of my earliest lines; her father is from new lines that Chris over at Woolybuns. Bina is one of the nicest angoras I've bred here, with record production of wool and a nice temperament. Bina's mother, Greenberry's Highland Mary, is an excellent mother, raising nice sized litters with ease. I tried to breed Bina to Woolybuns Puff 'n Stuff on Friday; she was NOT happy about it. She was more cordial yesterday and we should have some nice bunnies in about a month.
Painted Coopworth Roving I popped this Coopworth roving into a crockpot, and painted it with turquoise and purple dye on Friday as well. The colors are a little darker than they appear in this shot, but there is a nice variation from turquiose to purple to deep navy blue. I'm running low on this roving, finally. I plan to spin the rest and then dye it in my favorite "Blackberry Vine" deep purple for sale. Yesterday's craft tent went pretty well, although we fought wind all day. A minor mishap with falling displays was annoying. Today it's raining, windy and cold; we decided to stay in and I hope to do some computer work, and maybe paint some Shetland/mohair roving. |
