Sheep and Wool approaches...

It's time to be planning my annual trip to the New York Sheep & Wool Festival in Rhinebeck, NY -- mostly known to knitters, weavers, spinners and fiber fanatics everywhere as "Rhinebeck" and to our little circle as "Sheepsies."

This will be .. hm, lost count, I think my 5th year and even though I won't be shopping for anything, don't need anything and have little spare money to spend on anything, I'm very excited.

Because it is inspiring. This will actually be my second fiber festival this year, as I was able to go to the Maryland Sheep & Wool in the spring (that is the source of my photos).

There will, of course, be animals -- sheep, goats, llamas, alpacas ... and dogs
Happy sheep

Little babies

Such a face


There will also be fiber to peruse, many stands selling yarns of many colors

And others selling finished goods

I always return home with creative juices charged up. 

If you do anything with fiber, I encourage going to a fiber festival -- even if you never buy anything, you find that there is a aura of creative energy.
