Wool and Woodcutter

I am gradually unpacking all the parcels, packages and boxes that we mailed to ourselves or packed away before we left. I'm just now getting into the English wool that I bought during our trip to the Weald Wool Fair. This is a sheltand/icelandic sheep's fleece. It is a wonderful chocolate brown with bleached blonde tips. It's gone into the wash to see how it turns out. 


Every self respecting woodsman needs a wool coat. Christopher is modelling one that I got more than 15 years ago in Prince George. The good stuff just keeps going. He's also got wool pants on and boots made from wool shearling (sheeps' skin with the wool left on). And a wool toque of course! The dog has her high visibility vest on so we can see her in the grey winter light.
