My new Strauch drum carder has arrived!


My carder arrived from Strauch on Friday. I spent the rest of the day carding my Shetland and Llama fleece. On Saturday I blended them 50/50 which makes a very soft, durable yarn. I also had some roving that if I remember right is BFL which I had experimented with my new Lanaset dyes. I did one roving in warm colors, one roving in cool colors and then a third in various greens. I carded each of those rovings separately and got some beautiful blends. I have batts lying all over the family room that I took over for my fiber addiction!
