I've spent part of today picking a gorgeous gray Rambouillet-X fleece that I got at The Gathering last November. I'm going to blend this with 8 oz. of alpaca that's a similar shade of gray. I've also decided that the next big thing on my wish list is a picker. (I'd love a motorized drum carder, too - a girl's gotta dream, right?) Does anyone own a picker? I'd love to correspond privately if you have one - I've got about a hundred questions!
