The time has come for Mandie to part with her beautiful show coat. It causes me some anxiety to make the first cut since I labor over keeping her groomed for so long. But then I think about what a nice pair of mittens her fiber might make and that inspires me to get the job done.
Shearing the belly. Doesn't everybody have a cat to help them do this? Morty would rather I put the scissors down and pet him.
Yikes! Naked bunny.
Ooooh.. Doesn't it make your mouth water all that angora? There was approximately 4 oz of prime fiber.
Viola! Like magic I have it spun up in this semi worsted weight hank.
