This past Saturday was spent in New Hampshire to visit with grandchildren and go with them to the Deerfield Fair in Deerfield, NH. Once we got thru 2 HOURS of traffic we got into the park and had a great time. Altho ... there were SO MANY people there, we never really saw everything or even ATE everything we intended to.
BUT, I got to see the sheep ...
Hey don't ignore me gals ...
And then I even
watched the "Traveling Barnyarn" felters doing their handneedle felting. I'd rather knit & then felt in the washer, but it was interesting talking with the ladies.I just couldn't leave without something in my hot little hands either, right? So what did I get? Roving! Yup, I got some beautifully soft Lamb's Roving ... for knitting thrummed or lined mittens. I purchased the roving from Riverslea Farm. Oh my gosh, it's sooooo soft & luscious! Wish you could just feel it. It's black roving so I need just the right backdrop for it to show up in a picture.
And then I got home wishing I had bought MORE ... go figure.

Love the sheep pics. I always wish I had bought more when I get home.
Sheeeeeep! I always overbuy... always think that maybe next yeatr, sheep won't grow wool and yarn will stop being made :)
I used to raise sheep - (Not for wool though - stupid me) I miss thier little faces!!
