Mirabelle is our real "sweetie". She will stand next to us, totally unrestrained, for lengthy periods of time while we rub her neck. Gentle, quiet, and peaceful are words that come to mind when we think about her.
She is another "Dam of the Century" Misty Maiden daugher. Her sire, Tuscan Gold of Bella Vita Ranch in Colorado is full Peruvian, 3/4 Accoyo and an Augusto grandson. His fleece has earned multiple championships and every specialty ribbon there is, Judge's Choice, Best Brightness, Best Crimp, etc. Mirabelle's fleece has nice crimp and is incredibly fine, with a 2010 micron count of 17 AFD.
