Yesterday we all piled into the car and drove up to the Massachusetts Sheep and Wool Festival. I wanted to go drool over some yarn, Ellie wanted to go see baby sheep and Ken was just along for the ride and adventure (bless him).
It was a really fun day. The weather was beautiful -sunny and not too hot. We drove through some really quaint villages in Mass. We finally got to see what we thought New England was going to look like when we moved here.
There were loads of beautiful yarns to see and feel and I even tried spinning (pure wool into the knitable kind). It was very relaxing but a bit time consuming, maybe a hobby for the future.
Ellie got to see and pet sheep, lambs, goats, angora rabbits and even a llama. She loved it and cried when we left the barns.
Another great adventure day.
