Fawning over Fawn
Fawning all over what food coloring can do with fawn alpaca yarn….wow….the beautiful vibrant colors that are true and colorfast! What fun!
Our herd keeps growing and we are moving into more fawn colored alpacas. They can add great fleece characteristics such as fineness, color and crimp and you can breed with silver and get that highly-sought after rose grey! That's my plan anyways.
These photos represent a very frozen winter day and yarn from our herdsire, Premier’s Gold Standard. He’s a fading fawn out of two grey parents. So far, we haven’t seen him throw grey but the genetics are there and his first crop of cria were outstanding!
Artsy-fartsy colors, can you believe I just typed that? And, you just read that?
