Just a morning stroll..thanks to our neighbor for letting me know they were heading towards the ferry. Didn’t they hear no traveling in and out of Vt right now. They are all back safe and sound. The cows are pointing at Henry - he made them do it. #rootedinvermont #pandemicfarming #keepingitreal

Dyeing some “What’s the Madder?” On our variegated brown/grey/white yarn. Dyeing 6 skeins and 1 is for a very patient customer - we will have 5 left for sale. And making ricotta in the background - as one does. Hopefully this week I will overdye some of our chocolate brown “Iris” with purple logwood and some cochineal. All worsted weight. And maybe just maybe I’ll dye some sportweight... #vtfarmsteader #rootedinvermont
