Fiber festival in NY
I forgot to mention one of the highlights of our trip, a visit to a fiber festival in central NY, with Martine, Sammy, and friends Heather and Claire. It featured several tents full of vendors and exhibits, with yarn, roving, and lots of animals: sheep, angora rabbits, alpaca, llamas and goats. There was all sorts of yarn spinning equipment. Very interesting! One booth was about rug hooking and had a barrel of wool fabric scraps, so i stuffed a bag full. Perfect for quilting! Also I couldn't resist this pretty skein of yarn. I'm thinking hat and/or fingerless gloves. I took more photos of the fun. This is just a preview.

How FUN! Is New York fiber differet from California fiber???? :}
Nope, no different. Except that after I bought the yarn I noticed it had tiny traces of sparkle in it, like fairy dust. I should have gotten the hint when I read the name of the yarn color, "Enchanted." My eyes are getting bad! I'm missing stuff.
