When I signed in at work, I muttered to a colleague, "Gee, it's the 27th. What happened to March?"
"It's April.", she responded.
"Yes. I know it's April 27th. I'd still like to know what happened to March." was my reply.
That's the story of this blog at the moment. It's the end of April and I'm still trying to catch up with March.
Over the past two or three weeks, I have had some communication with some of my blog readers that I would like to acknowledge. This acknowledgement is long overdue, but I'm finally getting around to it.
First, I would like to acknowledge Elaine and Wendy from the UK. Elaine and Wendy own five alpacas including a suri called Mikey. They have just started a spinning and weaving venture and wrote to say, "We have had so many ups and downs your articles have been just the tonic we needed."
Elaine and Wendy were kind enough to send me some pictures of their excellent work, but I'm not sure I have permission to post those pictures, so I'm not posting them here.
They also mentioned that they have copied our nest stuffer and had green finches, blue tits (it's an English bird), and robins helping themselves to the fiber.
I'm pleased to share my writing and my experiences with somebody who understands some of the frustrations involved in starting up the fiber side of an alpaca business. Our nest stuffers are in the miscellany section of our on-line store.
Speaking of nest stuffers, ours has gotten quite a bit of use in the past few days. In fact, it's gotten rather fuzzy with tufts of alpaca fiber sticking out where the birds have pulled on it. Our list of recent visitors includes Pine Siskins, Lesser Goldfinches, American Goldfinches, House Sparrows, Black-capped Chickadees, Bullock's Orioles and other species. Thank you Elaine and Wendy for sending those e-mails and I hope you are enjoying your alpaca nest stuffers as much as our birds are enjoying ours.
I'd also like to thank dragonflyy76 for posting the first comment to this blog. Dragonflyy76 provided information about a dyers list that I appreciate, but simply haven't had time to investigate yet.
If you have comments about this website, would like to chat about alpaca fiber, or simply want to exchange fiber craft blog links, please let me know. My e-mail is on the side of the blog and you can always post a comment.
