Welcome to my blog. I’m so glad you are here. I hope I can give you an idea of what life on an alpaca farm is all about. I (Teresa) am working full time ‘on the farm’. In 2006 I left my ‘corporate world’ job to stay home and concentrate on the alpaca business. Since then, I have learned so much and life has led me places I hadn’t even known existed!
Our farm is small. We strive for 10-15 alpacas on our small property. I spin, knit, felt, dye and weave – mostly with alpaca fiber. I learned to knit as a child. And have learned to spin and weave since alpacas became a part of my life in 2002. I had a great deal of fun learning to dye yarn with Kool-aid and many natural dyes. As time progressed, I moved on to using most commercial dyes – the possibilities are endless.
I’m looking forward to sharing my projects, my experiments, and my alpaca’s escapades with you. And I hope you stop by often, read my posts and leave your comments.
I would love to have you sign up for my monthly newsletter and check out my facebook page. Thanks for stopping by.
Let’s become blogging good friends!
