MA Sheep and Wool Festival!

Hello again!

Back from NH, and now ONE MORE FESTIVAL for the spring season!

My own hometown festival, Massachusetts Sheep and Wool at the Cummington Fairgrounds.

I’ll be with Holiday Yarns again, in building 2 (I think it’s 2, the one in the middle) right at the end nearer the parking lots (and the bathrooms!)

Lots of fiber, lots of yarn! Dorset/Silk, Jacob, Manx Loaghtan, Corriedale, Cheviot, Suffolk, Dorset, Rideau Arcott, Merino, Tussah Silk, Phouka yarn, Eshu yarn, and more!

That’s all for now! Come see me!
