Re: [AlpacaTalk] skirting a pinto huacaya fleece...repost

I think there must be some cross-communication going on.

To skirt the fleece for showing, as long as the two colors are uniform
in character, don't skirt off the white. That is what defines it as
pinto. :) Just make sure the get out all the VM, 2nd cuts, and anything
that isn't uniform in length and character.

To skirt the fleece for processing into solid colors, then you must
obviously separate the two colors and remove any color contamination.
However, if you want to blend the colors for processing, then you don't
have to worry about separating the two colors.
