Woolapalooza

My son and I went out to Drumlin Farm in Lincoln, MA to check out Woolapalooza. It was a great event for kids--but I was hoping for a bit more vendors selling their fiber/yarn.
We got to practice our hand carding skills. We saw a bunch of spinners with a variety of spinning wheels and drop spindles. We saw some yarn dyed with plant material that was very lovely, and we also got to play with a loom. We missed all the sheep shearing. The baby lambs were very cute.

It was a lovely warm and sunny day--but by the time we got home the temperature had dropped and it was overcast.

My crocuses are starting to open up though.

Took my "boy" too. Looked for you but didn't see you. I was hoping for more vendors too although I'm sure that hubby was glad that there weren't!
