CT Sheep and Fiber Festival 2007 and 2008

2008 – The festival this year is on April 26, at the Tolland Ag Center on Rte 30, Vernon/Rockville.

2007

The CT fiber festival used to be a tiny affair, compared to places like NY and Maryland. I’ve attended every year since the 90’s, and the growth it’s experienced over the past 3 or 4 years is phenomenal. Posted here are a few photos I snapped this morning to convey a bit of the ambiance.

It’s all about the sheep…..

and the llamas and alpacas and the quirky spinners

and all the special things to buy, like dyed rovings to spin and llama finger puppets.

Bought some other stuff too………Like shawl pins, felting needles, etc…..
