  • Looks like Charlie's got a little helper!! Our sweet Willow and Red got some matching haircuts this week... and it seems Willow wasn't quite ready to say goodbye to Charlie. lol
    Still renovating Jack's basement, and hoping he didn't just give us his COLD!
    Took my washed wool to Mariposa so they can start creating some fun new projects for our fall/winter 2024 launch!!

    I don’t understand why people believe that shearing sheep is cruelty. It’s only 2 or 3 minutes out of a year. It’s a necessity for this type of sheep. I know there are rough shearers out there that often nick the sheep because they are trying to do it as fast as possible. But for a good shearer who takes their time and tries not to hurt the sheep is a good find. Charley is one of them. You really love your sheep, something which I often see in your videos. It’s hard not getting attached to them. They rely on you for everything, and sometimes it’s us relying on you….. you show us everything. Your ups and downs. That love you show on your channel spreads to us. Some of us are a little deficient in it. Your love of life and sheep farming helps us to keep going. ❤❤

      Exactly, NOT sheering them is cruelty. It doesn't shed like dogs or cats so it can get heavy enough to kill them.

      All ya have to do is google 'Fiona' or 'Shrek' to see what happens if you don't shear a sheep. And as a nurse (retired), I have trimmed toenails that curled around & actually cut into the pads of elderly toes. Same would happen to sheep. Sandi is totally trustworthy @ giving humane care to sheep, dogs, people 💕💕💕💕

I said yeah she’s real and told him who you are and that you live in Canada which is above the US. So he got a geography lesson today as well as learning that sheep get sheared and why.

    Knitter here: you can use worsted yarn (that’s almost surely the weight of your red yarn) and hold it double, or two strands at once, and you’ll end up with something that looks just like a bulky yarn in your project. And your embroidery looks GREAT for a first project! I’m sure if you do it a bit longer you’ll get much faster at it, new skills are always a bit slow at first.

    A nursing tip. When we have a PT sick with cold or flu, we wear a mask, so, when one of us is sick at home, we do too. or the sick person does. It really does help, esp with good hand washing and using clorax wipes on handles knobs and kitchen counters. IT just takes a couple min. and keeps us from passing the crud around. We've been doing this for years, pre covid.

      It makes sense to me that the person who isn’t feeling well take special care to not spread viruses and germs to others. A mask will capture your droplets when you breath, cough, sneeze , talk ,and keep them out of other people’s space. Keep a little bottle of hand sanitizer ( at least 65% alcohol) in your pocket and use it to keep the germs on your hands neutralized. Never touch a door in public places with your bare hand without immediately using hand sanitizer. You know the drill.Do not listen to crazy people who tell you all you need to do is practice frequent hand washing. Hand washing is great! But, sanitizer is invaluable.No, bacteria will not build up resistance to it ; have you heard that fairy tale?

    [The embroidery with yarn (as opposed to silk or cotton embroidery floss) is called "crewel embroidery" -- "crewel" being the (?)Welsh for "wool". (Sorry -- etymology is a hobby since i was five & discovered dictionaries.)]

    About the embroidery. Those are LOVELY hearts! And it's not a mistake, it's a DESIGN ELEMENT! The first time you do anything, especially crafty stuff, it will take much longer than someone doing it for the "nth" time. I have my doubts that it took the presenter only 30 seconds. Absolutely no way. You are doing an amazing job and are very brave to put your efforts on CZcams. I am currently redoing the threading of a weaving project on my loom. I had had it mostly done (so that I could weave) and then I found several very grave mistakes... those "I could continue, but I won't be able to complete my project" kinds of things. I have been weaving for a long time. I, and all the other ladies in my weaving class make mistakes or are continually learning how to do different weaves, types of yarn, etc. Those are very pretty. Keep them.

    Long time lurker first time commentor, I started watching your content when i saw the short with the lamb that had the abscess on its neck/back and have been watching ever since. Ive loved watching your channel grow and you become more prominent, in your last video about the comment it hit pretty close to home because i have also struggled with self image issues and i hate to know that my favorite sheep farmer and youtube person is going through that, but we all have our own battles and struggles and we are all only human. I just wanted to let you know that your bright smile and your personality is what has kept me coming back and watching every new video (the cute sheep help as well obviously haha). I know im just another youtube view but i wanted you to know that i exist and to tell you how much you and my channel mean to me. You have helped me through some very hard times and have always been there to cheer me up even if you never knew i existed. You have inspired me to start crocheting and i can only hope that one day i will get to use the wool that i see turned into yarn and how much love and care is being put into it. I know i will be here till whenever you decide to quit (im almost 22 and idk if you will be sheep farming when im in my 40s-50s but i know ill be here xD) Also i think the hearts on the back are very stylish! and i hope you get well soon :)

    Thank you Sandi…I needed your smiling face and beautiful happy flock today. We have just found out our 87 yr old mum has terminal cancer, and after spending the day in tears you have helped lift my mood. Thank you xx

    DON'T TAKE THE HEARTS OUT! They are perfect. Just put 3 more on the front, opposite side. It'll be grand!!!❤❤

    Some of the lambs are as big as their moms. I love, love watching the lambs running and jumping. I could sit and just watch them play for hours.

    Instead of taking the hearts out of that sweater, just flip it over & put hearts up on the opposite side but up higher about even with your heart. That way your showing your love coming & going. ♥️💕

    Sandi, I love the sweater with hearts! Perfect Imperfection is a saying in Japanese: "Wabi Sabi." I can empathize because I literally do _everything_ backwards, so I think it's perfect...like back- pocket embroidery.❤😅
    And I forgot that little Red has a black heart shape on her chest. It's wonderful to see Charlie at work- and the girls up close.🙏🏼

    Charlie has to have the softest hands from all that shearing he does! He always does an AMAZING job! I'm sure Clarissa didn't mind having to clean up a little extra. I'm praying you didn't get full blown sick! It seems to be going around and it seems to be pretty nasty! You all need to take care of yourselves! Stay blessed! Sending lots of prayers! I love you so very very much Sandi and family! Happy Valentine's Day! 💘🥰💖🤗❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    Love watching your videos. My grandpa was a rancher/farmer in Nebraska (sheep & corn) and watching you with the sheep makes me think of him. At shearing time he would challenge the farm hands with $100 bonus for the fastest one. He got them all (250) shorn in one day. Lol. Keep up the good work and God bless. 🐑🐏

He’s so wicked fast he’s gentle and caring of the ewes… The basement in Jacks house is coming along nicely, definitely done right this time… Sandi, I know that I just watch you briefly when you are working, but watching you go and go sometimes makes me tired 😂😂😂 You’re absolutely awesome!!! Sending y’all lots of love and blessings from Pennsylvania 🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼♥️

    Willow's group looks great all sheared for babies.

    Sandi, I'd leave the little hearts on the back hip and just do your bigger heart on the front. It's too cute to throw away all that effort. You'll have a "one of a kind" sweater!

    Sandi I have to laugh when you back up your trailer. I can remember how worried you would get when you first started to learn how to back up! You have come a long way for sure. You can back up like a trucker, goedzo. You all take care and stay safe. Thank you for making my day!

    Hi Sandy! I am very happy to see that you are a crafter too, in addition to your hectic schedule. I love how you are so good with your sheep! I'm from Saskatchewan, so I am always excited to see little parts of Ontario too when you share them.
    I, too, am a crafter. I love crocheting and knitting. I just wanted to give you a tip when it comes to thicker yarns.
    If you need a thicker yarn, you can always use 2 or 3 strands of the same yarn to make your yarn thicker. For projects like you are doing, make a couple of small balls from the big yarn skien and then put them together while you sew! By the way, those are great hearts! You can have them on the front and back of the sweater. I think it would give it character!!
    Keep doing what your doing, and all the best to you, Mark, Jack and your brave warrior, Jess! ❤❤❤

    @JP-bv7bf Před 3 měsíci +3

    Nice you are able to help out Jack with his basement. Looking great for him to be warm and dry. Anyone who says that sharing sheep is cruel do not understand sheep. If their wool is left to grow it is very unhealthy for them. Just go watch the special sheep game video where a sheep did not have its wool cut for several years. The poor thing almost could not move.

    The Hoof GP is looking forward to trying to meet you while you visit Scotland.
    Try getting some Whittard hot coco if you visit England, they ship to Canada.
    It would be great to have a hoof segment from HP in our area that has cow's/cattle.
    Willow always looks so perfect after a trim. Reminds me of a nursary rhythm drawing.
    Get spoiled today and wishing best for Valentine's ❤
