Shearing 2024 is Done

And that's all the sheep sheared!  It never fails to amaze me how different they look after shearing -- when I go to check them now, I really have to stop and think who's who...

The long term goal is still to make all our own clothing from this stuff, but in the short term I've realised that it's realistically several years before I'm going to have time to learn how to spin, and the fleeces are going to keep piling up, so I've decided to sell this year's fleeces.  If you're interested in one, I've got them listed for sale here.

In unrelated but sad news, there's been a mass stranding of pilot whales on one of the beaches here...  (Not my photo)  Poor little whales...  :(  None of them are expected to survive.
