I’m really happy with my keeper ewe lambs this year - Twister & Tillie. They’re shaping up nicely, and it’s exciting to see the potential they have.

That said, raising sheep is a long game. No matter how promising a lamb looks today, I won’t truly know if they’re a keeper until their first fleece comes off next February and gets sent in for micron testing.

Our breeding program focuses on two things: fine fleece and sound, functional animals. I want sheep that produce beautiful fiber, but I also want sheep with good structure that hold up over time.

These lambs are giving me a lot to be excited about, but now comes the hard part: waiting.

🐑 Fresh off the drying rack and ready to find new homes.

The sheep worked hard on this one. (Mostly by growing wool and supervising.)

New hand-dyed yarn is heading to the shop now. 🧶✨

Because let’s be honest… one more skein never hurt anybody.

Tibbie, Moon, and Taft have been conducting some highly scientific barn-side market research.
The results were… immediate.

I’m choosing to respect their findings.

Cutting into yesterday’s sheep milk soap 🐑✂️

Still in its early stage, so it will cure for about a month before it’s ready.

This batch is vanilla scented and made in small quantities from milk produced right here on the farm.

Most days I wake up and have one of those “wait… this is really my life?” moments.

The animals, the farm, the yarn, the chaos, the sunsets, the hard work — all of it.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if you flap your wings hard enough while standing on a garden bench… you still can’t fly. 😂

The turkey, however, remains unconvinced.
