copyright Steve Douglas This post is really short and I'm sorry there aren't many photos going up on my blog lately. The camera doesn't come out much, I'm usually too busy talking with people at events to take photos and then I remember when it's all over - yes, every time! This is the local boy in Etal village where we were this weekend. Lovely flowing mane - a bit of the Rod Stewart-aging-rocker-look-alike we thought!
After a busy weekend with 3 events, I just got a phone call from the organisers of Woolfest to let me know that I have a stall this year. So I'm going to be really busy spinning and dyeing lots of lovely wool. On the wheel at the moment is some fine Herdwick 2 ply which I'm going to dye later this week. Then I've got some more Herdwick which I shall just spin and leave the natural dark grey, so that it can be worked in with the coloured yarns. Then it's Swaledale up for spinning and who knows what else I'll get around to! I've also ordered lots of buttons, so that I'll have a great selection for everyone over the weekend. Please check the Woolfest website to see what a wonderful event it is. See you there.
P.S. If you want any specific yarns spinning and want to collect at Woolfest, drop me a line using the contact form and I'll see if I can do it!
