Sheepish Fun submitted by sdunav on July 12, 2011, 6:49pm Refreshingly honest, humorous, and educational memoir about a reluctant sheep farmer in Minnesota. Who knew there were so many uses for wool? Friend's description of her foray into the ranks of fiber fans (or freaks, as she first considers them) is almost as entertaining as her farm stories, and sure to interest knitters who are interested in how their raw materials are produced and processed.

Funny submitted by ashflowtuff on August 26, 2015, 10:59am Great follow-up to Hit By a Farm. Funny and interesting.
