Hi, Natalie. I just love the yarns you sent! You do beautiful work. The scarves are terrific, too... Our corporate fashionista was in love with the one with the little skulls.

Pagewood Farm, Chuck says:

As a producer of handspun and hand dyed yarns for retailers nationwide, Pagewood Farm requires only the finest, softest, raw fleeces available. Because of the labor intensive nature of hand produced yarn, we cannot afford inferior fleeces.We have been getting fleeces from Natalie at Namaste Farms for several years. Namaste Farms fleeces have always been soft, easy to clean, and have a great variety of colors. The professional handling and individual care of each animal is evident in the fleeces they produce. We have had the pleasure of using the Wensleydale, mohair, and the Gotland fiber in our yarns. The Gotland fiber spins up beautifully and does not require any processing. We recently had the pleasure of taking a tour of Namaste Farms facility. We were most pleased with the gentle, humane treatment of the animals. The

Natalie and her award-winning Angora Goat, Clyde.

animals were so lovely we considered purchasing several. We recommend Natalie and Namaste Farms for all your fiber needs.

I absolutely love Natalie’s yarn and fiber. Her animals live in the lap of luxury and because of this I can order fleeces with very long staple lengths (in excess of 7 inches). This is perfect for spinning lace . . . she is also a genious with dyes and produces some amazing color combinations.

It is always a treat to see and use the fiber that Natalie Redding dyes and spins. She has a natural talent with color and I am always delighted to see the results of her latest creations. Her well bred animals are cared for in an idyllic farm setting and nothing is spared in their care, resulting in the highest quality of fiber and yarn.

Hi Natalie!
I received my GORGEOUS fiber today and I can't even believe how beautiful and silky it is!!! I never expected it to feel like it does!
I had ordered some locks from another person and they came a couple of days ago and I thought to myself...well, I've wasted my money, the locks were kind of matted and very scratchy...and here I have another order coming and I don't even want them now!
I was so surprised at how beautiful your fibers were and how much extra stuff you put in with my order!!! I can't thank you enough...gorgeous!
I see that you have another order of both the hot pink and the autumn colors and would like to purchase it, but I don't think I'll be back in time from our motorcycle trip. Is there any way to reserve it?
Also, you included a sample of some locks that are like a light tan/fawn color and I would like to order that as well...it would go beautiful with a nice chocolate brown. I am thinking that I will attempt to make a scarf and a matching purse and use the locks as a trim on the pieces.
I'm new to felting and I have a small boutique here in Michigan...I'm hoping to get good enough to sell my products so that I can feed my fiber fetish!!
Let me know if I can get a second order of both the autumn, hot pink and whatever the light tan sample that you sent me!
I can see I'm going to be doing a lot of business with you!
Your farms are gorgeous, your animals are absolutely adorable and how very neat your story is.... you are a part of the Redding Family, I thought that was pretty cool!
I love the name of your farm....it totally fits in with me and my business!!
Let me know, and I look forward to talking to you soon!
Have an Awesome Day!
Sincerely,
-- Kelly MacLeod

Your fibers are outstanding and I'm thrilled to be able to get my hands on more! I visited your website and your farm looks like such a labor of love. And to be in beautiful southern California as well!
Thanks again for getting back to me about the fibers.

I just picked up the package. The Black Wensley is GORGEOUS!!! The luster is incredible and I like how there is some white and brown coloring. Although I agree completely that it would overdye very nicely, I might have to leave some of it undyed to spin as it is. It is extremely clean and I doubt that I would have to do very much with it. I will probably just give it a light wash before spinning and/or dyeing.

I think in the whole pound there might have been like only one particle of something. Very different from what I have seen from other people where you have to pick a lot of stuff out. In this fleece I won't have to pick anything out. How do you manage to keep these guys so clean??
