Monday's Activities






Monday's activities included a visit to Unique Designs by Kathy where Kathy raises the sheep, goats, llamas and alpacas for their wool.

She hires a shearer then cleans, combs and spins some very interesting and colorful yarns from the different wools.

Kathy gave us a tour of the animals and we hand fed the llamas at the end of the tour.

Then the best part we went shopping in her shop. Sue very kindly offered to knit another scarf when she had time if I found some yarn I liked - that was not difficult.
It was difficult, however, to narrow it down to one length of yarn.

Then on to Tohona Chul Park where we had lunch sitting outside and discovered a new citrus tree close by - a limequat tree.

The walk around the gardens was spectacular and enjoyed by all.
