Woolfest 2013

On Friday three of us set off for Woolfest hoping that the weather would be better than last year! It was dull and damp but on arriving it was bright and cheery inside if not out!

Every year Woolfest gets bigger and more interesting and this year was no different. We like Woolfest because it has a rural atmosphere all of its own and is devoted to natural fibres and rural crafts. The following photographs just give you a taste of what is on offer.

The crafts on offer included knitting, weaving, spinning, crochet, dyeing, embroidery, braiding and all sorts of associated equipment, crafts and art forms.
There were also many of the animals on show which produce the fibres in their natural state and a few are pictured below.

It was a good day and we went home tired but with bags full of goodies!
