http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZtheyarnyardQQhtZ-1
I am now running out of dye
Just did another 7 this evening, some greens and purples and a really between-the-eyes pink.
Starting to get some stock now, so I can top up ebay with whatever colours aren't there, either from me or anyone else.

That's brilliant, N!....CP and I went to a country fair, and she saw spinning being done. I hen explained that my mother used to spin and knit, and I texted my dad to ask him what happened to her kit. Coincidence or what????????....Next morning my uncle is emailing my dad to say what shall I do with theses spinning wheels?
Naturally, we are going to North Wales shortly...................

If I could knit I'd buy some! I'd like some hats etc for the kids. Ali is knitting some scarves for the girls for me, when we looked at wool it was cheaper to buy the hat etc made!
Actually I think i'd like a hat etc

My mum used to colect wool off barb wire fences, then cord it and spin etc. She got enough that way for her own uses but not enough for comercial applications.

Lloyd, did you tell CP it was all your fault that Mr Kathy started spinning, telling him the story about your Mum! Not that I'm complaining, lots of lovely, not to be repeated wool for me to knit with!!
