Kinda like a cross between llamas and sheep. So cute. So soft... Such lovely yarn... I went to the Alpaca farm this afternoon. They had an open house. I think lil bug is going to end up in the paper - the photographer took her picture anyway. I learned several things. 1) I do not react to alpaca like I do to regular wool(very very cool). 2) it is super super soft and what they had there was a much lighter weight the I am used to or expected. 3) if my yarn comes from there - and I would like it to (support local people) when I finally get a chance to make something just for me I'm going to need to save my pennies. However they had several things already knitted that I would LOVE to have. Several very pretty sweaters, some scarves, long finger-less gloves, socks, hats etc...but again with me needing more pennies. I don't know if their shop has items listed on their site but if so here's me doing a lil free advertising for them. WWW.stonemeadowalpacas.com . Very cool lil spot. Very very pretty yarns... Must go back sometime.
