In the beginning...

Not quite the beginning, but often for my purpose the beginning is getting a fleece.  This one happens to be the breed Lincoln.  So many beautiful colors off of a single animal!  The curls /wave (called crimp) look like a doll's wig.  This picture is also easy to see what a lock is.  It is one of the 'clumps' of curls that holds together.  This is wanting to spin as a worsted weight yarn and the color variations will be fantastic.
