Snuffles 9/10/2019
Last year, Sept 10, we had a little male cria born. He was perfect in every way, I thought! He was a beautiful light rose gray with obvious density, crimp, and fineness from the moment he was born.

Honey Girl Farms yarn
When last I blogged on March 2, never in my wildest dreams did I think we would be where we are today. Covid-19 has changed how we do everything! Today is the 1st day of basically the total shut down here in CO. I hope you are all safe and healthy and stay that way.
During this uncertain time, I hope your fiber arts will be a source of pleasure and comfort.
Needless to say, classes are postponed til further notice. We will be scheduling again as soon as we get word that it is ok to do so. read more...
