If you had to pick a theme for a wool round robin, what images would be more appropriate. I am signed up to start one in June and thinking these would be great... My wools will be all natural colors..
There is my super stud Andy (bottom right), good reliable Ruby (bottom left) and my absolutely drop-dead gorgeous Topaz (top right).. I think of them all the time during lambing season and miss them so much. I miss walking around with sweet grain in my pockets for treats and watching for signs of impending births.
You can see Ruby's eyes closed as she is relaxing while nursing.. They were such lovable animals... well not Andy...
It was hard to choose just 6 pictures from the large collection I have.
I am trying to get a good picture of the "raven happening" but the minute I appear in a window or anywhere near...off they fly. There are about 75 of them. The collective noun for ravens is an "unkindness" or a "conspiracy" I definitely have a conspiracy of ravens and they are cleaning any walnuts left on the ground from last fall.

how good it must have been to keep sheep, they have such expressive faces don`t they. All those ravens, no wonder we do not get them here, they are all with you
What a nice way to remember your sheep and so appropriate for a wool RR. We used to see lots of ravens when we lived on Vancouver Island and they were in a lot of the native art there. Don't see so many here but there are a few around. ( Note: the yellow fabric isn't brocade but a polyester look-alike)
Fabulous idea to use photos of your own sheep in a wool round robin. I shall look forward to watching the progress. We have ravens and crows here, but seldom a conspiracy or murder.
