Wow we got here fast! Where does the time go? Like the sheepy nose below, let's peek through the cracks to see what's ahead ~</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We have no raw fleece or millspun yarn available at this time. The Corriedale sheep have their coats on, covering their wool to keep it clean for you, and should be shorn some time in April or May (probably May). We only have a dozen sheep this year, so fleeces are very limited. I have four Finnsheep crossblood lambs, there should be some of their fleece for sale - we have to see how it looks at shearing time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I've been going through my stash - both yarn and spinning fibers. I have rehomed most of the yarn, and have plans for the spinning fibers. I do, however, have three small (one pound) lots of roving for sale. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><u><b>WHITE CORRIEDALE ROVING</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><u><b><br /></b></u></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Warm white, simple and easy to spin into a classic yarn. Completely Corriedale from our farm flock. <b><i>$22 plus shipping</i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><u><b><i></i><br /></b></u></span>
<b><u><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">CORRIEDALE-JACOB BLEND ROVING</span></u></b><br />
<b><u><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A 50-50 blend of grey Corriedale from our flock and spotted Jacob wool from a neighboring Michigan farm makes for a nice, hearty yarn. This one isn't quite as easy to spin because the fibers were different lengths, drafting isn't quite as smooth (at least I didn't think it was) Still, it makes a great farmhouse style yarn from two great breeds of sheep. <b><i>$25 plus shipping</i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b></b><i></i><br /></span>
<b><u><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">CORRIEDALE-ALPACA BLEND</span></u></b><br />
<b><u><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">70% naturally dark coffee brown Corriedale and 30% bay-black Alpaca gives such a richness of color to this roving - my favorite blend for hard wearing all natural socks (or any other project, this is a really nice one)! Hints of silvery grey appear occasionally through the fibers to give it real depth. Lovely to spin! <b><i>$25 plus shipping</i></b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><b><i><u><span style="color: red;">UPDATE 2019</span></u></i></b> ~ We are now sold out of yarns for the near future. I have one more very small batch coming back from the mill, but no plans for anything more any time soon. There will be raw fleeces available after spring shearing, and possibly some rovings. Watch this space or follow us on Instagram @mywoolmitten Thank you to all who have purchased and supported our small farm!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I've recently had a lot of questions about what yarns we might have for sale (possibly because of the new podcast!) I'll be completely honest - not much right now, for lots of different reason. And if you're interested in <i>that</i> conversation, I'm going to discuss it in detail on the next episode of the My Wool Mitten podcast, out sometime this December. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We're so thankful for the interest</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> and support of our farm products, it really does mean so much! So here you have it, a listing of all the farm yarns that we have at this time. You may recognize some of them as earlier runs - they are skeins that I may have saved back for myself but realize that I'm not going to get them all knit up. All perfectly good yarns. We have a smoke free home, one indoor/outdoor cat but of course she isn't allowed with the yarn! All yarn is washed gently in a fragrance free wash when it comes back from the mill, dried in fresh air and stored in a wooden cupboard with cedar and lavender alongside on the shelves. All that said, here are the offerings and ordering details are at the end of the post.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">"Lineage" is our latest offering, and is so named as a nod to the lineage of the sheep who produced the fleece to make it. We're very much about bloodlines and history in our flock of Corriedales and "Image" and her daughter "Naomi" are descendants of one of our first sheep, "Violet" - a perennial favorite and prolific fiber producer. This is a warm grey, 2-ply worsted weight. It was spun at a different mill than our other yarns and there are occasional slubs as well as overspun spaces in the skeins, giving it more of a handspun feel. Look closely at the photo above (click on the image to make it larger) and you will see examples of this. Please be aware of the uneven spin before purchasing this yarn, and if that's unacceptable consider a different yarn for your project. About 240-250 yards each, $20 per skein plus shipping. <strike>Only 3 skeins available, a very limited run (and I'm keeping some for myself)</strike>. <span style="color: red;"><b>~ <u><i style="background-color: white;">SOLD OUT</i></u> ~</b></span></span><br />

It includes - from left to right - "Wisewoman" (white); "Havre" (fawn); "Lord John Grey" (silver); "Gravel Road At Dark" (charcoal) and "Murmurations" (natural black). Please note that some of these yarns are no longer available in full size skeins. I have <strike>only <i>TWO </i>of these</strike> sets available and then they're gone.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Nearly 10 pounds of white wool from "Hannah" the Corriedale sheep went off to Zeilingers Wool Mill, and came back as 7 pounds of lovely roving, ready to be spun! Fully raised and produced right here in the Middle of the Mitten, Michigan's lower peninsula.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hannah's fleece is warm white with a vintage look and feel. She has a long staple length with the traditional Corriedale crimp and I think that is still evident in the roving. It's plush and comforting to spin, with the notable Corriedale softness and durability. I have approximately 5 pounds available for $28 per pound (plus shipping). If you would be interested in all 5 pounds (share with a friend!) price will be reduced to $25 per pound (plus shipping)</span><br />

<br />
From top to bottom ~ GRIZZLY; JANE GRAY and SHADOWS (<em>Shadows has sold out</em>). It might be a little hard to see in the picture, but there are differences in the greys. I'll describe them below....<br />
<br />
<strong><u>GRIZZLY</u></strong> (top) is a chunky 100% Corriedale yarn with lots of character. It knits up quickly with size 8 or larger needles, perfect for warm and cozy hats and mittens. It also shows cables well. There is the slightly suggestion of brown in this yarn and it overdyes beautifully! Skeins are about 4 ounces, 170 yards and are $12 per skein<br />
<br />
<strong><u>JANE GRAY</u></strong> (middle) is closer to worsted weight (you might compare it to a Cascade 220 type yarn). More Corriedale from our farm flock, including a ewe named Jane! Very soft and squishy, and cables really pop with this yarn. Skeins are approximately 210 yards, $16 per skein.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0xe0opbjcqbXKuA15a_2XxwwGG1qDiZoFufK5tujoFZkFeaihzPZwgeBrUWxaOgarQy7FmolqhNRUiuFvasSUDt2K4ksvtMEBktlYTUx7lg4qjTT7TlqF891Ff62074FV6etL/s1600/nl_cables.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="181" mea="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0xe0opbjcqbXKuA15a_2XxwwGG1qDiZoFufK5tujoFZkFeaihzPZwgeBrUWxaOgarQy7FmolqhNRUiuFvasSUDt2K4ksvtMEBktlYTUx7lg4qjTT7TlqF891Ff62074FV6etL/s320/nl_cables.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
We do have a few cones of this available, approximately 420 yards per cone if you would be interested. The yarn is unwashed, you'll need to skein it off and wash it before you use it. Cones are $28.<br />

<strong><u>IRIE</u></strong> (left) is something a little different. This was actually meant to be a roving made from very dark brown/black Corriedale and a multi color sparkle but the mill spun it into yarn! It's 2-ply, about a sport weight with approximately 232 yards per skein. I've started a shawl with it and its really pretty! $18 per skein<br />
<br />
<br />
We have a few skeins of Ainsley's <strong><u>COFFEE BEAN BROWN</u></strong>, 2-ply fingering weight yarn in 500 yard hanks. I haven't tried making socks with it, but I have been working on a sweater carrying the yarn doubled (in progress, below)<br />

Below I have listed our 2011 Corriedale blend rovings for sale, produced with wool from our own farm flock of sheep combined with other Michigan fibers - alpaca, kid mohair, angora bunny. Some may include pygora, silk and even sparkly bits of angelina. All were processed at <a href="http://www.zwool.com/">Zeilingers Wool Mill</a>, also here in Michigan. <br />
<br />
The photo above shows samples of yarn and fiber produced from some of these rovings (yarn from left to right is Midnight Dances, Pasture Land and Michigan Red Cedar). If you are interested in any of these fibers, we accept cash, check or money order or Paypal. Prices listed do not include shipping. Please contact us for availability, price quote with shipping to you, or any questions you might have about the fiber. We also offer discounts for large lot purchases (multiple pounds) or we will sell in 8 ounce bumps for $15 plus shipping, except for combed top - that is priced seperately below. If you are local to us in Michigan we would be happy to have you visit the farm to pick up your fibers and meet the sheep in person!

Nearly black (charcoal shot with silver), very fine lambswool blended with black-grey kid mohair and black alpaca highlighted with dyed turquoise and navy silk plus jewel-toned sparkly angelina. I was disappointed to find a lot of noil occurred in the processing of this fiber, but then delighted in the rustic tweedy texture of the yarn (another sample photo below)! I am currently making a shawl out of this - it is gorgeous! <br />

<br />
In very early spring, after the snow has melted away, the first bits of new pasture growth begins to peek through the over wintered, now brown grasses. This roving is from our perennial favorite ewe Violet. Her taupe colored wool is blended with a pale red kid mohair fleece, angora bunny, undyed silk and more wool dyed in shades of warm greens (think olive and sage). Even though my inspiration for this was early spring, I think of it as a "warm" blend. <i><b>About three pounds, $28 per pound.</b></i><br />
<br />
There is a sizable amount of the bunny fiber in this, and unfortunately some of the bunny and some of the silk nepped in processing. I was quite unhappy until I, along with several other "test spinners" gave the roving a spin. It is lovely and squishy soft (you can see a a skein of yarn and a test swatch in the photo at the top of this post)! Here is another picture and I think you can see some of the texture in the lighter areas ~<br />

<br />
Oh my goodness, this one is so deep and rich and warm! And also so difficult to photograph properly..it is much, much darker than the picture seems here, though the yarn sample in the photo at the top of this post is closer to being correct. This blend includes warm cinnamon wool from our ewe Collette and dark cocoa brown wool from her daughter, Elizabeth. Add to that rich mahogany colored Alpaca, highlight it with more dyed wool, silk and mohair and then make it sparkle and shine with bright colors of angelina glitz here and there - this is a perfect reflection of a midwestern autumn forest. Both Collette and Elizabeth have very dense, highly crimped wool so this roving is dense. I think you will love it as much as I do! <b><i>About four pounds available, $28 per pound (discount that to $25 per pound if you would like all four pounds)</i></b><br />

Inspired by the beauty of a spring dawn, this roving includes natural pale grey Corriedale wool blended with angora bunny and highlighted with dyed Corriedale and pygora in flashes of purple, pinks and violet blue. This roving is soooo soft! I don't have a picture of a sample yarn for this one, but it is nice <b><i>Two pounds available at $28 per pound.</i></b><br />

Finally, I also have a few pounds of combed top available. This is 100% Corriedale wool from here at Serenity Farms, using only our best white sheep. If you have only ever spun commercial top and found it to be slick, hard and lifeless you are in for a real trip with this farm produced product! Still full of life and crimp and warmth...what a joy! I would be happy to send a sample for you to try. <b><i>$30 per pound or try 8 ounces for $16 (plus shipping)</i></b><br />
<br />
Since most of our wool is sold raw, we don't offer a lot of rovings for sale. If you are interested in any of these, please don't hesitate to contact us before they are all gone!
