Everyone who raises fiber producing animals knows that the fleeces accumulate quickly and can be overwhelming. I know this from experience. I have used the mill for some of it - expensive but it saves so much time and labor. And II process some of it myself which I love doing. One way or another I end up with beautiful roving. I can hand-spin it into yarn, but I can also go straight from roving to rugs. There are 4 ways to do this that I can think of: Locker Hooking, Crochet, Knitting, and Felting.
