I had such a great time at this year’s Taos Wool Festival. Here’s me and Abbey:

Abbey and Merce in their booth:

Merce had some of these handspun woolen bowls.

What to use them for? Abbey had a clever idea:

This woman makes groovy clothing. Her name is Lynn and her designs can be seen at her website Lynnie B. Creations.

Her needle felted poncho won first place. She let me try it on and pose for a photo.

Not only is it gorgeous it felt great to wear too.

The Ravelry tent was a fun place to hang out. We knit, spun and ate cupcakes. What a great day.

Here’s the two yarns I entered into the yarn competition, novice category. The purple yarn is Churro wool and the gray is Icelandic wool booth bought at last year’s fest. While I didn’t win any ribbons I did get great feedback from the judges. I plan to enter again next year.

Thebes and Daniel pose with Aurora. They look so handsome.

Then we got a group photo. This is one of my faves.
