[Ansteorra-textiles] good place to buy fiber

[Nancy Wederstrandt]

He fiber is nice and relatively inexpensive.  I've gotten some from her 
before and really liked it.  SHe ships in a pillow case to reduce postage.

I was going to call this the Pumpkin Sale, indicating that my time is up and
at midnight (or in 10 days) I must give my attention to the demands of my
"other" life: school starts 8/22.
So, I want to get my "wool vault" emptied out, either sold or sent off to
processors by the 20th.
I have llama and sheep wool (many breed types), in all natural colors plus
some spotted.
More details upon request.
10% discount on entire fleece, llama or sheep. Sheep fleeces have been
somewhat skirted (no tags or nasties) since many I sheared and skirted as I 
went.
Sadly, some others (rams, mostly) have some second cuts. I try to remove
these as I find them, and in all cases I guarantee your satisfaction. If 
you are
not happy, just return the wool for a refund.

LLAMA
The shearer did a pretty good job of blowing the chaff out of the wool before
shearing, but of course these guys live out in the fields year round, so
expect some dust and bits of chaff. There are no stickers or burrs and, 
except for
Lily, most of the wool is pretty clean because we have big roller brushes in
each pen for the llamas to rub on. Unfortunately, no one was on hand to help
the shearer with the wool, so what's in the bag is what you get. I noticed
some second cuts, some odd bits, a little VM. Each bag contains the whole
fleece from a single animal, neck, blanket, legs etc. with the "really bad 
stuff"
thrown out at sheaing. I tried to price the wool fairly, according to
quality, but did not dump out each bag and check it thoroughly. If you are 
not happy
with anything you order, please return it for a full refund.
