On Saturday, Mary, Kathy and I headed out to the New Hampshire Sheep and Wool. Now this is only my third time going and this is the first that it didn't rain. I love this festival. Not too crowded, lots of stuff to look at and lots of animals for Mary to take pictures of. They seem to like to pose for her. Check out her blog for some of her up close and personal pictures.
On Sunday, Mary and I headed back to the festival as I was taking a class in Tricking out My Wheel. Winnie and I had a lovely time with Julie, Rose, and Danielle. I learned a lot of interesting thing about my wheel, mostly how to correctly take care of it. We also were able to chat for a bit with Lucia, Carol and on Saturday, we ran into Kathy and Manise.
We had good fair food - yummy lobsta rolls and apple crisp, checked out the fleeces, purchased some roving and some yarn and a drop spindle for Mary and went home happy with the time spent together and with our purchases. OOOO and I also sent the first of many fleeces to be processed at Friends Folly Farm. A very satisfying weekend, all in all.
Great photo! I wish there were festivals down here!
