I love informative stuff like this! I'm guessing they must dye there as well?

Hello from Latvia! Thank you for all that amazing information. I'm just planning all things and expenses that I need, to start my own small alpacas farm (3- 4 alpacas at the beginning). So I wonder-could you say, approximately, how much yarn can get from 1 alpaca? Thank you so much....

This is a great video series for me as I am such a newbie. Whiy would there be dust in the fleece after you washed it?

Little over half a mile spun a minute

Question: are you sure it’s roving they make? Looks more like wool top, but since they mention not being completely woollen or worsted, I’m left wondering... Thanks for sharing, it’s always a pleasure seeing a mill in action!

What is the price of fleece?

How do I find extremely cheap mill machine? Cheapest I’ve found is 125,000. Too much for me. I am trying to make my dream of having a fiber mill come true.
