Bouckville Fiber Fair




The first Central New York Annual Fiber Fair took place today and was a terrific success. Many top-notch fiber art producers and artists participated, and the crowds came out. The forecasted rain held off until 5 when everybody was going home anyway. Santana came to help along with Robin, my classroom aide. It was great having them in the booth. Gretchen visited us and spent some time spinning on my Robin wheel. Kimmie Cornerstone came from Ontario to show us how to spin right from a bunny. She borrowed Santana's new bunny, Golden Boy to do it. There were many fiber animals there including sheep, alpacas, goats and rabbits. We go back tomorrow for more fun.
