Designed for Home Farm Wensleydales - DK collection -  by Ali Craft Designs - Wool to your Door.

Ed's mum, our black sheep - she is so cute - we absolutely love her.

During lambing, 2018, we had a triplet born by a White Wensleydale ewe and unfortunately his mum wasn't able to provide enough milk for all three of her lambs.  This meant that we had to take one away from her and put him in our 'lamb lounge' with some other little friends and a giant automatic milk machine.  

However, a day later we had a very sad situation.  A Black Wensleydale ewe eventually delivered a lamb that was born dead - but it was a great struggle to help her deliver this dead lamb. 

Our vets were out on an emergency call elsewhere and couldn't get to us on time - so we called upon Ed, a 'retired' shepherd with many years experience and a good family friend who also helps us when we are in trouble.  Ed saved the day!  He delivered the dead lamb and instantly swapped it with the White Wensleydale lamb that was in the 'lamb lounge' with the automatic milk machine, and, of course the Black ewe who had lost her lamb was delighted and Little Ed got himself a new mum!  Happy ending and such a happy Ed and new mum.  

Home Farm Wensleydales produce Wensleydale wool to the highest standard and the ethos of our farm is always animal care, welfare and husbandry first.    

Our luxurious wool is made from our finest fleeces, washed and spun in Yorkshire.  Our wool is soft, smooth and silky, bursting with lustre and worsted spun to ensure great stitch definition. 

Our pure longwool yarns are versatile and can be used for most knitting and crochet patterns as well as the lovely range that we have on offer from Home Farm Wensleydales.


THIS KIT CONTAINS: 

100g (3.53 oz) of Home Farm Wensleydales luxury DK (8 Ply/light worsted weight) yarn in Naturally coloured and Cotswold Stone.

The Naturally Coloured wool should be rolled into 2 equal size balls and the body of Ed's mum is crochet using 2 strands.  This gives her body a lovely texture. 

NOIL (Noil is the shorter lengths combed from our tops before spinning.  You will find small pieces of straw or hay - but don't worry - this has been washed to such a high temperature - there will be no bacteria in this!)  Plus - its pure wool - so wont burn - making your sheep extra safe.

You should have enough naturally coloured wool to sew in Ed's mums eyes

Pattern with clear instructions to complete your kit.

YOU WILL NEED: 3.00mm (US 2) crochet hook and tapestry needle to sew up.

SKILL LEVEL: Easy - the instructions are so easy to follow.  But time should be taken with sewing up, stuffing and adding her eyes.

NOTE:  The Naturally Coloured wool should be rolled into 2 equal size balls and the body of Ed's mum is crochet using 2 strands.  This gives her body a lovely texture. 

HOW MINE CAME OUT: She measures       when complete.

COLOUR CHOICES: This pattern is shown here in Cotswold Stone (legs and head) and Naturally coloured (black sheep) body.

LAUNDRY CARE:  Handwash, plump up and dry.

Great product, terrible leaky packaging!
This wash is fantastic, my skin loves it, I love the sweet woodsy scent ... but the tube / product packaging seems to be cheap. The flip cap has a VERY weak hinge which broke during transit and leaked all over my sink and countertop. I'm treating the original packaging as unreliable by taping it shut during storage and using a generic dispenser day to day.

Not just for “Active People”!
I originally bought this for my SO. He’s a chef, and after working long hours in a hot kitchen wearing a heavy chef’s uniform, he has a lot of uncomfortable sweat-related issues. He liked it so much that I decided to try it for the chub rub and underboob rashes that plague me every summer. Sweet relief! My swampy spots are clean and healthy, and it’s surprisingly moisturizing for a purifying cleanser. I’m also really sensitive to perfumes and heavy fragrances, but the tea tree, eucalyptus, and thyme combo is clean and fresh, and somehow simultaneously energizing and calming. As for the price, a small amount of this cleanser goes a really long way. We would normally go through a water-based cheaper cleanser in this size in about a week. We’ve been using this for 2 weeks and it’s only about halfway gone. I try to be thrifty with most things but this product is more than worth the price tag!

A little goes a long way
The first thing I noticed was the scent, which I would think others would also find appealing. When I used it, I was happy to find that a little product went a long way. Although this is a liquid soap, it felt like a bar soap on my skin. For me, it did a great job at cleaning and deodorizing my skin.

Great Detox Body Wash
Been using this once a week for about a month and it works great. Skin feels detoxed after and stripped of the nasty oils but not over stripped like a lot of products out there. My skin remained soft and smooth after and felt truly cleaner and fresher. Like I mentioned I only use it once a week personally but I don't see where it would be a problem to use it more frequently if you want to. Its another great product from an already outstanding company !
