More Uses For My Yarn



I went to the Shepherd's Harvest Sheep and Wool Festival in Lake Elmo, MN today with 2 knitter friends. We looked at all of the wonderful yarn, spinning wheels, and weaving looms in the first barn we came to and loved it all! 2 of us even bought our first looms. Mine is a very simple Ashford Weaving Frame.

I also bought some Woolch. It is a blend of wool fibers and wood toothpick shavings that is used as a pesticide-free mulch and can later be tilled under to add nitrogen to the soil. Pretty cool!

After looking at everything we realized there were 2 more barns full of vendors. It was spectacular and I didn't even buy more yarn to add to my stash.
