Why am I in New Mexico working on a sheep farm?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Telling you the story of this sweater will help answer that question...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In 2017 I took a Border Leicester sheep fleece that I’d bought in Vermont, processed it from start to finish into roving at a wool mil l, spun the roving into yarn and then designed and knit this sweater.
(I actually made a video of this process which you can watch here)

I used to design and knit knitwear collections for a living.
It was part of my two-part business from 2011-2016 (the other part being @agirlnamedleneyphotography) 
But I started being bothered by the fact that I had no idea where the yarn I used was coming from, how it was made, or how the sheep were treated.
