Funkytown Furballs is the dream of my 8 year old daughter, Carolyn. She is wonderful with animals. She is in the process of building her own rabbitry - Funkytown Furballs. She wants to show French Angoras, develop her own breeding program, and include their wool in hat, scarf, and other creations she designs.

Selling Scarves
Carolyn donated one of her felted merino, silk, and angora scarves to our school's Junior Beta Club. They were holding an auction to raise funds for a trip to their national convention. It was quite exciting the day the auction came. The auctioneer asked Carolyn to bring her scarf up on stage for the audience to see. She told them a little about how she made the scarf and then the bidding proceeded. I thought she was going to jump through the roof when her scarf sold for $115. The gentleman who had bought it even wanted to take her picture holding the scarf so he could show his wife the child who had made the scarf he had bought. Wow! Now Carolyn even has teachers at the school placing orders for scarves. Of course she is selling them for only $30, not the $115 it brought at auction.
