Beside the workshops, we are also registered for sheep farms visits.
Well, it wasn’t really a good idea to visit 3 farms. We love seing sheeps and wool. Sheeps are beautiful and it was very pleasant to touch fleece and wool.
But, we understood nothing about the breeders presentation. English + technical vocabulary + Scottish accent, Whaou ! it was too much for poor little frenchies like us…
But my husband bought this book
I’ll read it this winter and I hope I will know everything about sheep farming…
So, because I can’t tell you about sheep, I prefer showing you the beautiful Shetland sheep. They are really magnificent !
Yes, I know, they are seals. it’s only to know if you’re paying attention…
Presentation of fleeces at Jamieson & Smith…
With his Majesty, Oliver Henry, Director. A local star.
And you can see that Jamieson & Smith has more wool stash than me !
All the fleece is used
This wool is beautiful !
Here it is the natural wool.
But colored woll is beautiful too !
It’is very difficult to resist, no ?
But we will talk about it another time…
