    Well, everything changes eventually.

    I've loved having my little fabric business, but... it's a lot of hard work, a lot of worry and late nights.

    Llamas or alpacas?

    Can anyone tell me whether these are llamas or alpacas? Not that I would know the difference at all... useful hair, long necks, that's the limit of my knowledge, I'm sorry to say!
