For various reasons, DH moved Natasha (the pig) into the cow barn last week. Well, on Saturday while doing the weekly things that have to be done in order to maintain the farm, she got out. Pigs don't like to be herded. CH spent hours trying to either get her back in the barn or into the piggy palace. It didn't work well. He got her into the cow pasture and connected the bottom wire of the fence (usually it's not hot) so she would at least be discouraged from trying to wander off. He did manage to lure Natasha back to the piggy palace on Sunday with stinky food and milk. Aahh, the farming life. Can you tell we're pretty new at this? We got the cows and chickens last summer and the pigs in the early fall. Nothing like jumping in with both feet.

I read this article on Crafty Gal. Makes me want to get sheep or goats or both. I have to idea how to spin though, or even if I would want to. What animal produces cashmere?

I got a ton done on the scarf I've been making, except it's now for DH so although it's long enough for me it's not for him. I started thinking it wasn't colorful enough for my tastes (it's just natural wool colored) and started thinking about ripping it all out and starting over with another yarn added for interest. So DH spoke up that he would like it. When complete it will be my first FO! Yay.
