Welcome to the blog for Hollyhock Farm Alpacas.

My goal for this blog is give you an idea of what life on an alpaca farm is all about.   I (Teresa) am working full time ‘on the farm’.  Our farm is small.  We strive for 10-15 alpacas on our small property. I spin, knit, and weave – mostly from alpaca fiber.   I learned to knit as a child.  And have learned to spin and weave since alpacas became a part of my life in 2002.  I also have had a great deal of fun learning to dye yarn with Kool-aid and many natural dyes.I’m looking forward to sharing my projects, my experiments, and my alpaca’s escapades with you.   And I hope you stop by often, read my posts and leave your comments.  Let’s become blogging good friends!
