Baba Black Sheep Yarns. Wednesday, January 26, 2011. From sheep to shins. This evening on the drive home (with Adam driving, not me) I finished the leg warmers I made from the yarn I made from the carded wool I made from the pound of the fleece from the sheep known as Little Debbie, owned by a member of our spinning guild, Essex Spinners. (Yeah, I know that's a run-on sentence; it was a run-on experience, too, so that grammar fits.). Here are the finished leg warmers:. And with cowboy boots:. I just made...

Baba Black Sheep Yarns. Tuesday, March 22, 2011. Progress, not perfection :). There was a discussion of goals on Ravelry in January where I posted.
