Took delivery of four mixed fibre blankets (mostly wool, maybe 90%) from Varusteleka, and a four-man tent at work on Monday.
I carried home two of the blankets yesterday in my daysack, and the other two blankets and the tent in my 100L rucksack yesterday.
Those blankets are somewhat bigger and heavier than I expected, and they have a slightly oily smell to them.
I wonder if the oily smell is lanolin from the high content wool?
A whole library on canals.
I hope one day to be able to explore the Inland waterways...no time or money...yet.

A whole Jacob sheep fleece ready to card and spin... now all I need are some carders!
Picked this anvil up this weekend. Really hoping that someone can help me identify this. The guy I bought it from was selling it for a friend and didn't know much about it, said it was a 175 lb. The feet look like they were added on and the hole in the body is different than any I see on the net. Please help!!
