Here are some mohair sweaters: The dark purple was the first sweater Mom made. It was for Greg. She used two complete fleeces from Honey Dear (the goat depicted in the header with her baby Valentino) and hand-carded every bit of it. It is so heavy! The shades of blue is one I hand-carded and spun from Angel's fleeces in 2018. I love the colors! Angel is so sweet-she was a bottle baby and is extra-loving to all humans. The vest with shades of mulberry is from Valentine's fleece. He was my favorite all-time goat. He had so much personality and loved me so much. All of the herd would come running for grain, but he would always run to greet me first before running over for the grain.
My mom and brother have passed away. All the goats I mentioned have passed away except for Angel. What a lot of memories in these sweaters! |
