Welcome to permies, shepherding is a time-honoured profession and I'd imagine it requires a certain amount of patience for sure, because sheep.

Hello Shep - another welcome to Permies. Lots of friendly folk and useful advice to be found (or sought) here. I've been a textile aficionado for more years than I care to mention. I have a particular affinity for wool though - recently using small skeins to trial all the plants growing on our block. When we were crutching the 'spinning' flock for fly strike prevention, it seemed that I always made rice as part of dinner. Guess I'm suggestible, eh?

You have to be warped to weave [ditto!]

Happily living in the valley of the dried frogs with a few tiny ads.

Contemplate spending the next 20 years puttering in permaculture projects
