Oak Grove Alpacas: July 2009
http://michelleatoakgrovealpacas.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 27, 2009. Now that I am home for at least a few days it is time to get working! I arrived home to two giant boxes of alpaca yarn that has been made for me at a great Michigan yarn mill called Stonehedge Fiber Mill. They have created beautiful sport and fingering weight 100% alpaca yarn in white, beige, fawn and black. I have ended up with a whopping 61 pounds of it! I am imaginging all of the great products that are going to be created in the very near future. A shot of all my new silk.

Tuesday, August 25, 2009. August at the Ranch. Now that August is at an end it is time to get ready for the fall alpaca season. I am busy making a few shawls and jackets. I am also spinning alpaca yarn for a custom order. The resulting sweater should be very pretty. I have so much to do and so little time! Meanwhile the alpacas, chickens cats and dogs are all enjoying the nice Michigan summer weather. Getting out of the heat for a bit! And finally the spoiled dogs are hangin out in the house:.

http://michelleatoakgrovealpacas.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 30, 2009. I have been weaving wedding shawls for the last week. I used an 80% alpaca and 20% silk yarn as the warp.
