I don't know if you remember this post - Brother Francis Llama Rescue?
Basically, I was gifted bags of wonderful llama fiber from Brother Francis Llama Rescue and my intention was to process some of the fiber, spin it into yarn and knit and then felt a toy llama for the rescue to sell or keep or do with whatever they chose.
Finally, I've picked up the project again and this week, I finished spinning a second skein of this beautiful fawn-colored llama. Beanie helped while I was winding the yarn onto the niddy noddy (a device that helps you wind the yarn into a skein).
Here's the second skein.
Here's the llama in progress. I hope to finish him before I leave for Birmingham at the end of the week! More pix as he progresses.

Beanie is SO cute!!! Does he chew on the fiber? That's one of the reasons I don't knit anymore - knitting with soggy, cat spit covered wool was less than entertaining! LOL! Looking forward to seeing the felted toy llama!! :) Have fun!:)
