We were SO blessed to have shared 15 years with him! <br /><br />I have a bump (or two) of roving that I had processed from one of his fleeces several years ago. If I don't need that for the afghan, I will make a pair of fingerless mitts for me so I can have him with me, too! Excellent suggestion - thank you!Split Rock Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18024537773861076383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1562253670243573735.post-48641989038957920112013-09-05T20:12:49.326-06:002013-09-05T20:12:49.326-06:00Oh, Brenda, my heart goes out to you.

But it sounds like Black Jack was such a connecting force for your family. And he did his job well! <br /><br />And now your daughter will have the pleasure of feeling the warmth of his fiber wrapped around her. How special is that? I hope you make yourself a hat or some fingerless gloves, too! <br /><br />Hugs to you!<br />Joyce ♥ Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09382467341794509767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1562253670243573735.post-2389561032820193352013-09-05T20:12:15.300-06:002013-09-05T20:12:15.300-06:00Thank you Lin.
