Its that time of year again! Time to visit the wool and fibre phenomenon in the UK calender. WOOLFEST!
This was the best year ever... of course we started with breakfast at the Village Bakery
followed by a drive through some of the most magnificent scenery in the UK to ... WOOLFEST!
I keep saying that don't I?
hmmmm - start with the furry things that provide the fibre and many more of these this year
looking so soft and sweet with their long necks and big eyes...just sheared hence the attractive ribbing.
And now I find that I didn't take enough pictures of the wool! though there were plenty of lovely things to see and inspire
like this stall of lovely rug hooked pictures ...
and this green wool that I resisted - I have so much wool already!
but I did bring this home to play with this is Feza and the nice people at Pavi Yarns sell it and I have in mind another pair of these
I know someone who is going to a wedding fairly soon - how about a pair of these Gloria?
Another day of Woolfest tomorrow if you are anywhere near the north Lakes. Poor you if you aren't.

I do like the cup cakes - what a clever idea, I must make a note in the diary for woolfest next year.
