Shearing our sheep for the first time!

Come hang out with us in our barn as we shear our sheep! This was our very first-time shearing sheep, and it was quite an experience! The first one took over an hour and we were down to roughly 20 minutes by the seventh (and last) one.

We have a small flock of Finnsheep that we are raising with a focus on fiber. Finnsheep make an excellent fiber sheep with a lustrous, soft, and finely crimped fleece.

I have no idea when our first batch of yarn will be ready. The timing largely depends on how long the mill takes. As soon as it is available, I will send out an email to our newsletter subscribers. You can sign up via the link below:

If you would like to get on our lamb list for registered breeding stock or fiber pets, please send me an email at LostRiverHomestead (at) gmail.com.
