Alpacas!!!

There were incredible little felted woodland creatures.

AND…….

All Things Llama!  Complete with felted llama wool slippers:

I am craving these pot pies again.  The line for the tent was ridiculous long, but they were well worth it.

The Rhinebeck House Party crew.

My very small stash of fiber – I did not really have a budget for it this year (next year, however……).  I did snag this super soft hank of Maple Creek Farm Merino Superwash in colorway “Spices” and two hanks of Fine Wool Sock yarn from Juniper Moon Farm in Colorways “Sea Witch” and “Merlot”.  And I have to admit I bought those directly from Susie here in Va and not exactly at Rhinebeck.  It’s to die for.  Can’t wait to knit all of it up!

I also brought home 3 big bags of Maple cotton candy.  Yum!

If you’ve never been to the Sheep and Wool Festival I highly suggest you try for next year – there’s a huge amount of people there and you’ll need to plan your accommodations well in advance but it’s a great time. We had a blast!
