This is kind of the opposite of the #yarnuary travel for yarn prompt: I'm really hoping that this llama I was given by a friend last year, who now lives on my farm, will give me some hyperlocal wool when it's finally warm enough to shear him in May.
I've never processed raw wool or spun wool, but I'm willing to learn in order to make a sweater from grass that I grew!
Any tips on processing raw wool? Anyone have experience with llama wool, specifically?
