A Surprise at Rhinebeck!
I had an enjoyable time at the NY Sheep and Wool Festival in Rhinebeck NY over the weekend! I found only one vendor who carried knitting looms, which was the case last year.
This year I went into the little historical museum they have on the fairgrounds and I was pleasantly surprised!

Pretty cool eh? They have the museum broken up into little rooms, each with a focus and these knitting looms were in the 'clothing making' section of the museum. I really should have plunked one of my business cards down, to see if the person who made the display would contact me.. but I didn't so I might have to do some research!
All in all a nice little boost for loom knitters, wouldn't you say?

NY Sheep and Wool-The shopping list!
Well I sure have been MIA! I am soo sorry about that!WE have swung into full gear with homeschool here, and I have one more student as my next to youngest son started kindergarten this year. I have also been working on a big loom project that I should be able to tell you about soon.
This weekend I get to celebrate finishing up that project by going to the NY Sheep and Wool Festival! So I have to work on my shopping list!
I got a great new camera so look forward to some nice shots from the festival!! And I will pick up blogging more regularly starting next week! See you then.
In the mean time here is the beginning of a project on my new Markman adjustable loom.
Some Wool Ease Thick n' Quick and I should have a hat pretty fast!
