We’ve been contemplating keeping Pippen, one of Hera’s triplets, as a breeding ram.
We’ve kept an eye on his progress and he has an excellent health record. We’ve admired his wool during the summer as the triplets took their supplemental bottles.
Still we weren’t quite prepared, when skirting this weekend to find that the extremely beautiful fleece we were working on turned out to be Pippen’s. While we aren’t quite sure that we are happy with the conformation of his rear legs. We sure are excited about the quality of his fleece.
Beautiful and bet it makes lovely articles.
Love the lambs in their little coats!
I love seeing those sweet little baby faces!
How much fun you must have to knit an item from a sheep that is part of your family…you really are blessed.
I hope ya'll are keeping warm enough, it's so cold!
Wow – that is pretty!
These three lambs are a wonder —- so sweet!!! Congratulations!!!
I've got a wonderful scarf from a friend of mine for my birthday. It is made by baby-alpaka-wool and very soft and beautiful soft warm. Very fine and healthy warmth.
