Fiber Fun Fest, a photo diary

Our 4-H Extension office plans an amazing Fiber Fair each year out at the county fairgrounds. It is a wonderful event for children and adults to learn new crafts, visit with other artisans, and purchase yarn, kits, patterns, fiber, and fabric. A variety of classes on knitting, crochet, weaving, sewing and dyeing are offered throughout the day. It is our daughter's favorite day of the year!

Sheep shearing

Cricket Looms set up in the classroom

Spinners from our local guild

I came home with some beautiful merino from the Milkweed Designs booth. I can't wait to take it "out for a spin" this week!
