We had a great time at the festival on Saturday! Of course I came home with some goodies!
I got:
~4 oz. of an alpaca/silk blend fiber (70% alpaca, 30% silk) I spun this up already! I LOVE it! It was just lovely! I got 226 yards of fingering weight (2 ply)
~2 oz. of a multi colored purple fiber Love this too! It's also almost done being spun...I tried to spin really thin since I only had 2 oz. So I'm almost done with that and then it will be ready to ply.
~2 magnet chart keepers I really needed these since I'm always using my mom's!
~and last but not least a package of Knit Picks interchangeable cables (24") I needed some new cables since I always have a lot of projects going at once.
I was very happy with all of my purchases! =) I'll try to post some pictures and links to the shops soon!
The festival itself was wonderful! We went last year too, so this was our second year attending. It has a total of about four barns. The first one has all the sheep and goats being shown; the second, the show arena; and the last two, venders! I prefer the last two! I like the sheep and animals too, of course, but the stuff for sale is my favorite! hehehe
Well, I'm going to get going! I think we'll go watch a movie and I'll either draw or spin! =)
Have a blessed night!
