For those of you who prefer the alpacas to wedding For those of you who prefer the alpacas to wedding posts - here are a couple of pictures from our wedding guests enjoying the alpacas 😉
Very excited to have been invited to take my alpac Very excited to have been invited to take my alpaca wedding dress into the studios of BBC Radio Lincolnshire this morning 🤩 Click on the link and follow to 1:33 to hear our interview 🥰 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002xn4y
For those of you who have asked for a clearer pict For those of you who have asked for a clearer picture to zoom in and see the detail, here it is! 😘
Well … here is the dress!!!!! More detailed one to Well … here is the dress!!!!! More detailed one to follow but didn’t want to keep you waiting any longer 😉 thank you ALL so much for your love xxx
Finally with three days to go it’s time to put the Finally with three days to go it’s time to put the hooks down (and I’ve used eight different hooks)!!!! The alpaca wedding dress is FINISHED!!! 😅 It’s hard to count the hours it has taken but somewhere between 600-800 hours. I’ve used 22 balls of yarn at 50g each so 1.1kg and a total of 9,614 yards which is 5.46 miles!!!!! I’m not an expert at crocheting, I’ve made a few blankets and some toy alpacas and donkeys since I learnt just before lockdown so it was definitely a challenge - especially as I didn’t have a pattern - it’s not perfect but it’s mine and I’ll wear it with pride on our big day on Saturday 😉🥰 Oh and for those of you who may be a bit worried that’s it’s made with ‘wool’ and its midsummer, don’t panic as alpaca fleece is thermoregulating so the fibre adapts to your body temperature, keeping you warm in the cold while dispersing excess humidity to keep you cool in the heat. Oh and if it does decide to rain it also repels water 😉🤣😊🥰 A HUGE thank you to everyone for your support and encouragement (especially when I was on the verge of giving up and buying a dress) and for believing in the craziness 💙🩷💚💜
Awww Mithras missed out on an ‘after’ photo but he Awww Mithras missed out on an ‘after’ photo but here he is in his wonderful coat! Out of all of our alpacas Mithras is the one who we think has the most human like expressions 🥰
Next is our other grey boy, Leonidas, he is Lysand Next is our other grey boy, Leonidas, he is Lysander’s half brother and their fleece makes gorgeous garments that have a tweed type effect due to the black, white and grey nature of their fleeces, just amazing 🤩
Today’s before and after is our gorgeous Leonardo, Today’s before and after is our gorgeous Leonardo, look at his tail … a raised tail can either mean submission or a warning … it’s all about context… this is a sign of submission as his ears aren’t flattened and he hasn’t raised his chin, he’s showing us that he’s not a threat. So much communication is non verbal - as with most animals (including ourselves)! 🥰😉😊
What on earth is Jean Jeanie up to here? 🤣 She’s s What on earth is Jean Jeanie up to here? 🤣 She’s so funny 😆 x
