From today's photo shoot. Art yarn I started this morning. Merino/tencel with cocoons of sari silk and angelina. Oh my.

Support Trooper

You're a trouper for helping Trooper, the feral rabbit who was hit by a car!! You rock!! Nose bonks and bunny kisses from Trooper. Updates on her progress will be posted on the blog. Thanks so much for your support!! ***Update***A week and a half after her accident, Trooper gave birth to five healthy babies. Surprise! Mom and babies doing well, Bunny Nurse Walker still recovering from shock. I doubt I'll raise enough money to cover even Trooper's vet expenses, but if I do, it will be used for stuff like: Critical Care. Trooper eats through a one pound bag in under two weeks. Simethicone. To help her not to colic. Terramycin. For the cut in her eye that is still healing. Ensure. Mixed in her food to give her added nutrition. Benebac. Probiotics to help replace the gut flora she lost on the antibiotics. Puppy pads. Because she pees wherever she likes right now...usually on me. And other nursing supplies like tissues, Gold Bond Medicated powder, paper towels, etc. p.s. If you make a donation, you'll receive a #teamtrooper pin. Just message me your address. http://etsy.me/1VN5Ja0

The Gang's All Here

The Menagerie:

Siobhán . . . a Bluefaced LeicesterX who will be giving me lots of soft curly locks to tailspin.

Beatrix . . . a CormoX who is not sure she likes me unless I have food in my hand.
Brontë . . . an Icelandic moorit (brown) spot who has the curliest, the fluffiest, the most wonderful fleece. I'm selling the best locks in my Etsy shop.

Jak-Jak . . . named after the baby in The Incredibles for his spitting attacks, Jak is a maroon alpaca with truly luscious fiber. He's a grumpy old-timer but he's getting mellower as he settles in.

Merrie . . . A tort French angora bunny. With her brother Pippen (now gone) was my first bunny. Merrie, bless her fuzzy little heart, has the personality of a doorstop.
St. John (pronounced Sinjun) . . . a black French Angora otherwise known as "He Who Must Be Petted But Never Picked Up." 'Nuff said.

Ghillie . . . a blue French Angora, daughter of Poppet. Pretty girl. Ghillie has THE BEST ear tufts EVER.

Hamish . . . Ruby-eyed white, Humane Society adoption. Hamish is spoiled. He is the official Reindeer Station spokesbunny. He replaced my baby, Twisk, who crossed the rainbow bridge.

The Girls . . . An ever changing assortment of hens.
