I was in Connecticut for the CT Sheep, Wool And Fiber Festival last weekend. I arrived Friday afternoon to beautiful spring colors, glorious sunshine and 80 degree temps. The show was wonderful, as usual, lots of familiar faces and happy shoppers! I had planned to take pictures to post but once the show started it was too busy to remember.
Below is the Long Ridge Farm booth which I did manage to catch as well as Golding Precision Fiber Tools, adjacent to me, while we were setting up Friday. Diane Golding and I are a few of the vendors who set up the night before, take in a meal together and relax a bit, refreshed for the next day. I understand the parking lot was once again full by 11. It was a bit chilly on Saturday but that always makes wool sound more inviting! Many thanks to all who visited our booth!

Getting ready for the CT Sheep and Wool and then the NH Sheep and Wool so the past few weeks have been pretty busy between fleece prepping to carding fiber to dyeing yarns and making labels, ordering inventory ad nauseum….this is my dining room and the shed off the kitchen which is a temporary dyeing space. Thank God I have a patient husband and dogs and a cat who are disinterested in raw fleece!

Jack’s been busy tilling and reseeding pastures this weekend. We are having a glorious stretch of spring weather making it perfect for getting ahead of such projects. Now that the seed is down, we’d like a nice long, lazy day of rain. Just one a week for good measure!
