Look at my smiling face decked out as a sun-conscious hippie.
I had good times with good people and got some good loot.
Rag Hill Farm is a repeat vendor at Gore Place. I picked up some art bats last year to spin, and did the same this year, though the one I wanted got snatched out from under my nose!
This year's purchase is an earthy, mellow green with shots of purple. The photo doesn't do it justice.
I got some cool magnets.
Just for good measure, here are the bats I got last year, still unspun.
Most of the yarn I bought this year was from the same vendor, Grey Sky Yarn. They were using varied, experimental dying methods, and were getting great results. I'll have to find some worthwhile projects for these beauties.
The last skein I bought, from Mother Nature's Finest Fiber USA Alpaca, was an impulse buy. I liked it, and knew it wouldn't be there later... So I bought it...
Good pull this year. Going to more events this year hopefully.
Oh, and I was inspired. Pulled out my spinning wheel for the first time in a year and a half! Stay tuned!
