Temptation

[The F-H.C.A.G.]

"Baa baa, black sheep, have you any wool? Yes, sir, yes, sir three bags full. One for my master, one for my dame, and one for the little boy who lives down the lane"

I suspect those bags weren't that large, given they all came from the same sheep.

Alan-you can beat this addiction to new hobbies. As soon as Jamie figures out how, I'll let you know!

Be well,

Not necessarily. "Sheep" can mean one, or it can mean a whole flock of the things. I would doubt they would be wool bags, though, which, as has been said, will hold many fleeces.

I still have a bag in the attic (small one - just one fleece) which someone gave my daughter for 'projects' still to come. Seems like med school and practice got on the way of her spinning and weaving. Can't imagine why. Oh well, it will keep.

Well Alan,

No matter what, you'll have delicate, smooth skin.

If you don't spin or weave you could make hats by felting the wool. I have done this with alpaca wool. Or you could sell it in small lots.
