It's big. And heavy. So big and heavy that I had to wait for one of the guys to get home yesterday to move the box from the front door, where the UPS delivery person left it, to my craft room.
The dogs were very impressed.A peek inside the box:
All set up and ready to go. It just fits on top of my sewing machine cabinet. Good thing I don't want to sew anything much because it's too heavy to move often.

I don't know if your carder is bigger then the Fancicard but it does looks big. Those locks look lovely and white.
I always luv to blend sheep fleece with my humungous alpaca stash :)
Great socks!!! And while it may be just the beginning for you, I LOVE the first snow fall!!!
