I must admit that this festival was so much more than my expectations – WOW!  Anything and anyone fiber related was there:  plants used to dye naturally, fleeces, sheep shearing demo’s, auctions, wheels, etc.  It was a spinning/weaving/crafting palooza.

While the ride up was cold and damp, well, downright rainy, that Saturday and Sunday were sunny and beautiful.  I learned so much about fleece quality and how to purchase fleeces, cleaning/skirting fleeces, and how it is all worked into yarn.  Quite a labor of love.

All in all, it is a great festival and I am glad to have attended.  A long drive for us so I may attend a closer one, like the 2016 Fall Fiber Festival held at Montpelier.  Mark your calendars!
