My biggest purchase was my fleece!

It's 11.5 pounds of Border Leicester. Her name is Irmalinda!

Wasn't it nice of the breeder to include this little card for me? She's a gorgeous sheep...
Beyond that...I had a simple mission this year, I was determined to only buy things if I knew what I wanted to make with them already.
I want to make a skirt out of this:

This is what I showed off last week that I had started spinning.
I got an ounce of angora just so I could play with it...

...and a bunch of angelina to use with Irmalinda.

I want to try to spin some silk, it's kind of intimidating.

I got this pretty Merino to make a pair of spats for my boots with.

This I'm less sure what it's destined for, but it was cheap, so I'll think of something. I was thinking maybe cuffs.

This was expensive and I really like it; I'd like to make it a sweater.

And this one will be a shawl.

Yeah, I bought a lot. ;)
