Sweetpea is our sheep of the day! She is the daughter of Felicity and she lives up to her name. She is definitely one of the sweetest members of our flock, she craves attention and loves a good chin scratch! 🥰 #sheep #merinosheep #sheepfarm #yarnfarm #blacksheep

Holly is today’s sheep of the day! She is the first daughter born to Ivy, yesterday’s featured sheep. Her personality is much like her mom’s- she is a leader, not a follower. She also inherited her mom’s jet black, dense fleece. It’s a stunner! #blacksheep #merinosheep #snowday #sheep #merino

Today’s sheep of the day is Ivy! Twin sister of Ms. Pickles, Monday’s featured sheep. Ivy is without a doubt the leader of our flock. Always the first to investigate a noise in the distance or to see what I’m up to. Her jet black fleece is 🤩 #merinosheep #yarnfarm #merino #merinoyarn #smallfarm

If I could only wear one sweater for the rest of my life, this would be it. The pattern is Favorite Flannel by @aliciaplum.bsky.social the yarn RWCo. Better Together DK Martha & Ivy are the perfect match. 🧶 #knitsky #knit #handknit #yarnlover #knitting #merinoyarn #sweaterknitter #catalansheepdog

Ms. Pickles is our sheep du jour! You might be wondering how she got her name. Well, my husband didn’t believe me when I said I wanted to name her Pickles, and so I made it a bit fancy and gave her a title. The name fits her perfectly, she’s sweet and sassy all in one. 😂 #sheep #merino #blacksheep

Here’s Purl, today’s sheep of the day and the very first white sheep to join our flock. While Purl is a very friendly, easygoing sheep, she is the only member of my flock who would NOT be halter trained! 😂 continued in comments… 🧶 #shepherd #sheepfarm #yarnfarm #yarnie #yarnsky #knitsky #merino

Fiona is today’s featured sheep! She joined our flock in 2019 with Felicity- whose personality couldn’t be any more different. Fiona is the shyest member of our flock, often off by herself. She hangs back and lets the others get bored of me and then comes looking for a chin scratch! #merino #knitter

Today’s flock spotlight is Felicity. In 2019, Felicity was one of the first Merinos to join our flock. Since then she has become the voice of the flock, always first to call out hello when she spots me on my way to the barn. Once jet black, her wool is now a lovely silver. 🧶 #merinosheep #knitsky

Many of you are new to RWCo. so I thought I would take the next few weeks to introduce you to our flock! I must start with Rosie, a crossbreed & the oldest in our flock. She has a very laid back personality- I like to say that she keeps the class clown Merinos in line! 😂 🧶 #yarnfarm #knitter #sheep

Thank you everyone who shared a pattern suggestion! I have added quite a few favorites to my Ravelry queue. I’m going to wind up some yarn and knit a few gauge swatches to see what fabric I get on a few different sized needles. I’ll report back on what I decide to knit! Have a great weekend! 🧶

Knitters, what is your absolute favorite sweater pattern? Either a pattern you have knit several times or the one you pull out to wear most often? Looking for inspiration for my next cast on! 🧶 #knitsky #knitter #knitting #knit #knitspiration

These last few days I have had the best distraction. I’m washing our sheep’s small batch yarn just as fast as I can so that I can get it out to the crafters of the world! sign up for our newsletter to be among the first notified when it’s ready. 🧶 www.renningerwoolco.com #yarn #knitsky #knitter

Kitty Mack, our barn cat loves the sheep, especially Glory! The feeling is mutual. ❤️ #sheep #barncat #blacksheep #animallover #cattitude #merinosheep

Hi, I’m Jennie & that’s my friend Mary. I am saddened by the direction our country seems to be headed. I spend a lot of time with our sheep, but these days I feel I am leaning on them for solace more than ever. Continued in comments… 🧶 #knitsky #knitter

Just a little fun with Holly! 💕 #merinosheep #merino #knitter #blacksheep #knitsky
