Flurries of Fleece

April 14, 2018

Winter arrived today with a wet blast of icy cold wind and rain up in the Macedon Ranges. It just so happened that it was also the day of one of my favourite sheep farm's open day!

Unfortunately the weather hampered our farm tour - no sheep to be seen ... but lots of fluff ... Maureen kept tables full of bags of fleece and there were stallholders aplenty.

Piping hot and decadent devonshire tea was a lovely antidote to the cold, but spirits were high anyway because of all the gorgeous fibre and fluff.

Great company and a great location, if a bit soggy and wet! I bought a few more bags of fleece. But I'll have to wait for better weather to wash it!
