I've got a lot of new followers all of a sudden, so I'd like to introduce myself. I'm Olga, I live in a small village in the Italian Alps with my mini flock of pet sheep and a cat. I work my sheep's wool, neighbours sheep's wool and also commercial wool. Any wool I find 😆 1/2

When there is something the sheep don't like they tell me about it. Then it's my task to figure out what's wrong. 1 min 46 sec of talking sheep 😆🐑

I moved to this house ten years ago. Renovating slowly, one piece at a time, everything is so expensive. It took me ten years to create a place where I can seat with a book. The window is open and I can hear the river and crickets. Good night

Gaby makes me laugh so much. When she arrives close to me and I'm not moving she immediately turns her back and starts to eat. They are so hungry for fresh green grass. Nothing grows here in winter.

This morning at a local elementary school. I talked about wool and showed how to work it from fleece to yarn. We carded some wool together and then I spun it. At the end each pupil made a small cardboard and yarn sheep to take it home 😊🐑

Nalbilding is an old technique that precedes needles and crochet. The work is done with a wood or bone needle using short pieces of yarn. At the end of the piece it's attached to the next one by felting - soaking both ends and rubbing them together. Not a problem on a wet field!

I'm thinking about my Mum these days. She was an amazing knitter. There never was enough time, but she enjoyed it so much. Wish I learnt from her. How I would love to give her some yarn from my sheep! Raised and spun by me. She would have loved it.

A funny fact about me: I don't knit. I have knitted 5 pair of socks in all my life. I do rise sheep, spin their wool, but I never really knitted. But on the markets people keep asking for "normal hats" 🤪, and I've got yarn. So I started knitting hats while sheep graze 🐑🧶

I love these woolly girls so much. The possibility of some of them having the disease already breaks my heart. The incubation period is 4-20 days. Apparently there is a vaccine for this variant of BTD, but we don't have enough of it in Piedmont. Some say it was all sold to
