Welcome Fiber Arts Friday and Crafty Friday folks.
What a crazy week. Unfortunately it wasn’t all fiber fun. Instead I was dealing with things like my car failing inspection, my herd sire getting beat up by 2 intact fiber boys and crappy weather making it impossible to get things done outside. But, I did manage to do some stuff.
HATS! I didn’t get photos of 2 of my favorite hats but here’s a photo of 2 kids hats I’m making for vendor shows I’ve got coming up.
Roving! The alpaca/merino I got back from the mill was in 1lb bumps so I have been weighing out 4oz of roving and hand rolling them back into center pull bumps for sale. Completing them of course with DHA logos.
Fiber weekend coming up. The great Finger Lakes Fiber Arts Festival is going on this weekend at the Hemlock Fair Grounds. Can you believe I might not actually be able to go?! I totally forgot I’m volunteering at a Carriage show all day Sunday which leaves only Saturday for Fiber time. But that also leaves only Saturday to re-fence a “dirt” paddock around the new alpaca barn. I’m so hoping I can get that done early Saturday morning so I can go to the festival in the afternoon. *crosses fingers* Why is there never enough time for fun things?
