fiberaddictWe had over 1500 people thru the door today - and this is at a rinky-dink :grin: small-town Heritage Festival! :boggle:
I hauled along the Norwegian wheel, the RH loom, all the batts the lovely![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ritaspins37 carded up for me (BTW, the postlady wasn't really pleased at my banging on the door at 6:30 this morning, but I HAD to have this box! Worth getting up early for!!)....I got all the bright clown spore and the sapphire/fuschia spun up - to the tune of *6* bobbins of laceweight singles! :boggle: I had to put the half-full bobbin of wool/silk I had been spinning at home just so I had something to do the last hour.....
Also got about 1/3 of a scarf woven. The kids LOVED it - which is why I haul the loom along. :grin: I have another demo Monday, Apr 30 (I have the day off - personal stuff) at the High School - the teacher is working on "cottege industries" and wants a sheep to fabric demo. I can do that! :grin: Think I'll save the darker clown spore for it.....maybe. I'll haul along some of the washed wool I have, my hand cards, and the wheel and loom. Fun stuff!
AND - a lady will be bringing me a bag of ANGORA fluff (for ME!! FREE!!) and a bag of collie fluff to spin for her (PAID!! Whoo Hoo!) So...all in all it was a Good Day.
Think I'll start plying up some of those singles now...
