This is Ox. He is one of my parents alpacas.
The picture above I took of him last spring. The yarn below is made from the fiber you see above.
This is my second skein of yarn I hand spun on my Ashford Traditional Spinning Wheel. I made this a 3 ply. I love spinning! I also carded lots of his fiber on our electric drum carder. I can't wait to spin it. I think it is so cool that each year you get to shear them. I can't wait to see how his fleece turns out this year. He is such a cool guy. Now I just have to decided what to knit this into???
