More Alpacas

Sunday afternoon, I made Wonderful Guy take me to the Alpaca Breeders Exhibition. I really really wanted to get some paco-vicuna to try to spin. It is luscious stuff, and priced accordingly. I just want enough to taste.

I found some from the Switzer-Land people from Estes Park, just 1/2 ounce, and that is enough.

However.

In the looking around for PV people, I tripped across some roving that was very pretty. But I was prudent. I said I was going to think about it. After all, I still have fleece I am working through. (So prudent she is!)

After making my decision on the paco-vicuna, Wonderful Guy asks me about 'the other'. I replied, 'oh, I don't know...' He then says something to the effect of we're here now and it a good opportunity...'

Oh twist my arm!

8 ounces later....he says "when will I learn?" I say I hope NEVER!

Also, I bought some buttons. No plans for them. Just really liked them!

And a knockout of a wool rug.

All I wanted was a bit of paco-vicuna...
