A small group of fellow shepherds and myself will be holding a shearing open house on Saturday, March 29th from 10 AM to about 2 PM at the Amish B&B near Canton, MN.  Shetland, Babydoll Southdown, and Icelandic-Gotland cross sheep will be sheared and their fleeces, and rovings, rolags, and wool from last year’s fleeces will be available for sale.  The B&B will be hosting a light lunch ($5) and presenting spinning demonstrations.  I’m embedding a copy of the flyer OPEN HOUSE 2014 Spring Sheep Shearing that contains the details.  If you are interested in where wool starts from, purchasing specific fibers for fiber arts, or trying the wool of various breeds before adding them to you fiber flock, I encourage you to join us.  Maryann is a great cook, so I’m looking forward to the lunch, too!
