baby it's cold outside.................

just in time for winter, i introduce my latest creation...

the blue/green matching baby hat and mitten set custom made from 100% mohair hand-dyed, hand-spun yarn. the fiber comes from our handsome angora bucks, herschel and patrik.


i am currently taking orders for hats, scarves, baby mittens, and flowers. i can do just about any color and also have some lovely icelandic wool in brown and black.

dreaming of a white turkey...


"big white" is his name. not very creative, i know. but he IS our only white turkey AND he is ginormous.

not much to post. well, actually there probably is. but i've been in a funk. it happens around this time every year. the holidays. why do they always... 1.) sneak up on me 2.) make me feel inferior (to what or whom i do not know?) and 3.) cause me to freak the F out! it's quite pathetic, i know. it's all in me lil'ole nutty head. but i sure wish i'd learn to devise a preemptive detour. but alas, here i am. in the doldrums. fun, fun.

the forecast calls for snow. i've got my fingers crossed. would love to wake up to a field of white. and i'm not just talking turkey.

Icelandic Wool and Mohair Hat

i have a new item up on etsy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! keep posted for lots more additions. i've been spinning myself dizzy!



"A cozy and fun winter beret made of all natural (no dyes or chemicals) hand-carded, hand-spun mohair and icelandic wool yarn. All fiber comes from free range goats and sheep raised with love and care. The mohair in this unique piece comes from none other than our handsome buck, Herschel. And the icelandic wool was donated by a friend's organic farm (as our icelandic sheep are still too young to shear)."
