proportion to the fiber weight. Voila! Rosegrey fiber! So, I've been cleaning seconds (coarser fiber) in order to send this unique blend to the mill. Can't wait to see how it turns out!

January 13, 2011 Farm Blend Alpaca Fiber
One of the fun things to do with alpaca fiber is to clean and then blend colors of fiber to come up with your own original color. I love rosegrey and a kind alpaca farmer suggested that I make my own rosegrey fiber with the various colors of fiber from my herd. The recipe includes: some black from Libby, some white from Alexandria, some brown from Carmelita or Lucy, and add them together in 
proportion to the fiber weight. Voila! Rosegrey fiber! So, I've been cleaning seconds (coarser fiber) in order to send this unique blend to the mill. Can't wait to see how it turns out!
