A good friend of mine, Sarah, is a ridiculously talented fiber artist. I have been gifted a couple things over the years that are treasures. Good yarn from small artists is a nice find, but finding the community behind it is even nicer. I am delighted to see you had a nice day out!
Thank you Grumpy Grunt! I'm glad I got myself up and out to the show. It was an amazingly good time. And yes.. the community was super awesome. I really don't like to socialize and be out among people, but I kept thinking "these folks are as awesome as the knife community".
Mrs Edge?! SO good to see you. I don't think I could ever learn to spin (the coordination in my hands is so bad) but those Goats and their fleece! I couldn't stop touching them. I had an amazing day and I'm glad you enjoyed going along.
I forgot to mention that I’ve got one of those woven baskets . Got it at a festival up here many moons ago We call them market baskets ❤❤❤ Mine would be over 15 years old and I’ve even taken it packed full of everything on the boat Great quality still looks brand new I paid a pretty penny for it but it’s still tip top I just got the natural colour with long stuff ish leather handles I’d love to get a multi coloured one with the shorter handle I should take a picture to show you It was definitely an investment that has paid it self off ❤
G'day Dawn. Looked like a great day. I grew up on a sheep farm. Goats were always 'bad news'.. Rouges. I spotted the sexy frogs..🐸 at the basket stall.🐸 We have our big Field Day on this week. We are going Thursday. Great video.. 🦘🌷🦘
@DawnRaeB G'day.. yes we had a great day thankyou. I found 2 frogs to buy.. A lovely sunny day.. sheep dog trials too. Those 🐑 sheep were getting rounded up.. Hope your well.. 🪷
omg dawn lol , did you know that i can shear a sheep lol my grandpa was a "gun Shearer and one of my first jobs as a child was a rouseabout in a shearing shed lol
@@DawnRaeB it’s a sheep shed person who picks up the fleeces and rounds up the sheep for the shearer . In Layman‘s terms, it’s a slave 😆 😆 but bloody good coin $$$

This was very interesting Dawn! Thanks for sharing. Watched and enjoyed in full!
Thank you Pete! Have a great day!
I haven't been to a fiber festival in forever, thank you for sharing your outing! I'm feeling the itch to spin again!

Got to love the natural fibers, dry or wet they will keep you warm. Lots of sheep, alpaca and goat farms here in this neck of the woods . Enjoyed 👍👍
Thank you Henry!! My BFF swears by natural fibers for warmth and dryness too. I just usually can't get past the itchiness.
Hi Dawn! Thank you for sharing the festival with us. Goats or sheep hmm guess we will see what you choose someday! Great video Dawn.
@@PandJsHomesteadAdventure thank you so much!
Cool festival!
