It's here!
My fleece arrived today after a long and arduous journey with UPS. See, it was supposed to be shipped to Catherine but then they shipped it to my billing address and then I had to call UPS and tell them to deliver it to Catherine anyway and then they forgot and then when they did deliver it they didn't change the name like I asked them to or put an apartment number...
But oh well, it is here and it is gorgeous.
The only problem was getting it home from her house tonight. Squishing was involved.
Now to get spinning again!

Is that what you ordered from Rhineback?
How much yarn do you think you will get out of this?
That is a mighty pretty fleece! Glad it arrived safe & sound.
It's big!
OMG, that's a whole lotta wool! You gonna dye it y'rself too? Yum!
Hello, I just wandered over from Jenneke's blog...
On Fair Isle I learned a nifty trick to bag a big fleece... you stuff it in a sturdy bag, get the vacuum cleaner out, stick the nozzle in the bag, close the bag tightly around the nozzle and switch the beast on. It will suck out all the air and your mega fleece will become something small enough to tuck under your arm hehehe. Just have an extra pair of hands ready and packing tape. Once you've sucked out the air, pull the nozzle out of the bag, making sure that your hand will close the bag as you pull it out. Quickly twist the bag around itself a couple of times and then tape the bugger down :)
I managed to fit 2 big fleeces into my suitcase (together with my clothes) that way!!
Cheers Eva
