Back in Scotland for the final days of my daughter’s journey at St Andrews. First stop, St Andrews Botanic Garden. My happy place. #ilovegardens #gardenlife @ St Andrews
My sheep are foldy, if you know what I mean. They have lots of skin rolling back on itself. If your shearer isn’t skilled, the animals will come out all nicked up, polka dotted with blood. Luckily, this rarely happens. He’s also great at keeping second cuts to a minimum. They are bits of fleece that are too short to include in the spinning process. We definitely don’t want them.
