When are we going to have an honest conversation about the #knitting to subsistence farming pipeline?
Me: "I really think I'm getting the hang of socks, but I I'd like to try an all-wool yarn."
Me, Later: "I should give drop spinning a go. Maybe I'll buy some roving."
Me, Later Still: "How much work could hand-card a fleece really be?"
Me, Even Later: "So if 30 acres is enough to support 100 ewes, and my back yard is..."
