I Am An Apprentice!

Just returned from an amazing 5 day class learning to sort alpaca fiber according to the Certified Sorter system. I passed my test and I am officially an Apprentice!

Over the next two to three years I will be practicing my skills and adding to my knowledge about sorting and using alpaca fiber. Then I can test to be a Certified Sorter. I am very excited about the work and learning coming up for me over the next couple of years.

So now a disclaimer… I’ve posted a fair amount about sorting and how to use alpaca fiber here on my web site before now. It was all the best of my knowledge at the time. If you are doing a simple ‘farm sort’, that information will still be very useful to you. I don’t think any of what I offered here in the past is wrong, there is just so much more to know. I will be refining my practice and knowledge a lot over the coming months and will share some with you in posts here.

I will be formulating a page about my sorting services here on the site soon. I need to collect some supplies and think through a few things.

Meantime if you are interested in learning more about Certified Sorting, or having me sort your alpaca fleeces for you, please get in touch! Use the Contact form on this site.
